Hey fellow Transformer fans, piratescratch here.

Think I should make a quick introduction post.

So I'm Michael, university student, residing in Box Hill (well Mont Albert North if you must be picky) in the Eastern suburbs of Melbourne, Victoria.

Transformers history, umm well yeah I loved them back in my early years of primary school, favourite childhood toy along with Lego and G.I. Joes (what else do boys need am I right?). Only recently got back into the swing of things with the new Animated line (picked myself up a voyager Bulkhead which I adore and a deluxe Bumblebee and Ratched), also looking forward to Universe/Classics 2.0. So yeah not quite as big a fan as most of you guys here, still picking up the whole Transformer lingo/terms.

Besides Transformers, other toys I enjoy include Lego (which also I just recently got back into, at the moment it's City sets for me though the upcoming Castle sets look mighty fine. Also a collector Kubricks and Be@rbricks, mostly 100% scales though I do have 2 400% scale ones. And as an anime/manga fan I always have my eye out for cool figurines (articulation over boring statues haha).

Interests include anime/manga, (Western) comics, Asian cinema and video gaming.

Guess that's about it, looking forward to getting to know the rest of your peeps.

I'm a Lego City set person myself but I just usually pick up whatever sets interest me which include Star Wars and one of the more recent Indiana Jones sets.

Studying Information and Knowledge Management at RMIT.

Sure I drop by Animezone time to time but not being a fan of G1 (I love articulation, it's a must when it comes to figurine purchases for me) which is what he only really stocks I don't buy anything there.
