Whether you only have a few toys
which you show off like a proud father to anyone who enters
your room, or whether you have every single Transformer ever
produced sitting behind 4 inch thick, bullet proof glass and
laser fencing, this is the place to display and view them!

Burn estimates his collection to be 300 strong now, consisting
of mainly G1 and Beast Wars figures, in addition to the many
Australian release RID figures he also has. When asked about
his pride and joy, this was his choice, "I would have
to say my BW Optimus Primal; he's such an amazing bot who
just reeks of firepower!"
At
the last count, Blaster had around 100 Transformers in his
collection, but that was before RID came along so it could
well be anything up to 150 mark by now. His pride and joy?
Well, he didn't have to think very hard when selecting that;
it's always an easy choice when you're one of the lucky few
to have a CR Brave Max at home!
MHarrison has an
impressive collection of almost 400 Transformers made up of
many different lines; G1, G2, Machine Wars, Beast Wars, Beast
Machines, Car Robots, RID and Japanese Reissues. The jewel
in his collection crown came one day when a friend of his
sold him scores of perfect G1 bots, including Jetfire, for
$190!
With
over 500 figures and the entire G1 and G2 Marvel comic series,
SharkySparky has one of the most impressive Transformers™
collections in Australia, and it's growing all the time. He
collects mostly G1 and RID, but like many of us, has also
picked up the odd Beast Wars™ and Beast Machine™
figure along the way.
Turbo has an impressive 350 strong collection: "I
collected bots as a child and never got rid of them, thank
God!" he exclaims. "One day while at an Op Shop,
about 4 years ago, I found a bunch of Mini Spies and Prime's
cab, and got jazzed on them all again, so I dug my collection
out of my Mum's house and put them on display."
As
far as toy collections go, Vert's is almost legendary here
in Australia! It needs little introduction, however if you've
just started collecting Transformers™, then get ready
to be inspired, as this is what you can aspire to one day,
but be warned, you'll need a lot of time, dedication and money
to achieve the 850+ figures that he's got!
No
matter what the size of your Transformers collection - big
or small - if you've got some decent pictures of your bots
and would like to show them off to your friends, family or
even your arch enemy, then send them in to us and we'll upload
them on to the site for the whole world to see!
