Just wanted to post to say hi. Spend most of my time living in Ayr but come up to townsville any chance I get.
I've been a transformers fan since g1. I remember getting home from school so I could watch the series. (That was nearly 30 years ago). When I was a kid all I wanted was Megatron or shockwave as my first toy. Unfortunately my parents could not afford them so now I'm on the hunt for them again. I've just come back to transformers collecting as all I recently found all my old toys and decided to start getting all those toys I missed when I was a kid. Can't remember my first ever transformer toy but I'm pretty sure it was ravage and frenzy cassettes as they were reasonably cheap at that time.

I've really only started getting old toys in the last month but it's so hard (and expensive) to get complete ones. So I'm just getting bits and pieces when I can on eBay as there is a lack of available second hand stuff up here. I recently bought scorponok (body) fairly cheaply and now trying to get all the parts. The thing I was amazed about him was his size. Compared to other toys (metroplex etc) he's a big one and I can't wait to have him complete.

My main focus is to restore these old and much loved used toys to original as best I can so I can just admire them on display and dream of my childhood days (if I had them as a child). Sorry to blabber but it just makes the happy feels inside when I reminisce.

So hopefully I'll be able to start looking for great deals from other user soon so I can continue to add to my (very incomplete atm) collection
