Hi everyone
I've been lurking on this site for a few months and this site has provided me with a lot of valuable information on Transformers stuff.
I am 33 and as a child watched religously Transformers, Voltron, 5 Star Blazer and a host of other cartoons. However, Transformers were my favourite.
As a child I did not possess many Transformers. My only one was Seaspray, :( for which I still own today! :D
Anyway fast forward twenty or so years, and here I am now.
I am still a fan of Transformers and have bought all the DVD boxsets, except for Beast Wars and I am going through all the movies now.
I have also purchased a fair few Transformers, mostly from Evil bay for the G1 Reissues (Optimus, Ultra Magnus, Pepsi Optimus etc) and the Hasbro version of Optimus (not Takara MP) and some from stores.
I have quite a nice collection of Diamond Select Toys / Palaisades Transformers statues. So if anyone wants to sell some, let me know
I will post some pictures of my collection.
In addition for those in Australia, I am a mad V8 Supercar fan and collect 1/43 and 1/18 Diecast Model cars. I have an entire room for my toys.

Opps - I meant Star Blazer
As for V8 Supercars.
I am Ford man, I own a modified 2007 BF Mk2 FPV GT .
My favourite driver is Craig Lowndes and favourite Team is the team he drivers for - Triple Eight Race Engineering. However, since T8 got boned by Ford, they have joined Holden for 2010 and beyond.
So I am in no mans land at the moment.
I will support that team and the other Ford teams...
Confused? Me too.

Do you collect Transformers Binaltech? (Transformers that are also 1/24 scale die cast cars)
and what is 5 Star Blazer ive never heard of it
Starblazers is the English language dub name for "Space Battle Cruiser Yamato" (宇宙戦艦ヤマト (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uETP3sNn9n8)) - there's a live action movie of it (called Space Battleship Yamato (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YBu1cZm4Gqg)) currently in production scheduled for release in December 1 this year. I dunno if you've ever played Starcraft, but the Terran Battlecruiser's "Yamato Cannon" is a reference to this animé. :)

You are very welcome here then. :)
But like Maxie, I currently drive a holden too..... but it's really a toyota so it's all good. But the next car in my sights is either a BA or BF.
As Goktimus has mentioned, get some binaltechs/alternators. They have ford ones. :) The Ford GT. I've got both mirage and rodimus versions.
