Hi everyone!

I'm a collector from Adelaide, Australia.

I've been a gamer since I was young, but started collecting gaming memorabilia about 2 years ago. My favourite series is the Legend of Zelda.
I've just stumbled across this forum, which is strange because I've been a member on other collector forums for years.

My collection is predominately Nintendo items(all series), however I also collect merchandise from the following series - Ratchet and Clank, Jak and Daxter, Spyro, Crash Bandicoot, Hitman, Bioshock, Gears of War and Assassin's Creed.
I collect mostly statues, figures and plush toys.
I have never really been into press kits, but I've seen some awesome stuff on here which has changed my mind!

I look forward to finding some of the rarer items I need through this forum.
I plan to post my want list up, along with some pictures of my current collection.

Look forward to making some deals and admiring the collections on here!

Cheers

Thank you Knight!
Yeah the F4F statues are just beautiful in hand. They are definitely some of the best items you can buy (especially the first wave)!

Its gold :D I guess that is rare :D :welcome: :) :)

Thanks Platfus!
The two gold Mario statues are actually the Nintendo Outstanding achievement awards. They are also called Nintendo Oscars, as they are made by RS Owens, the company who makes the Oscar awards! They were awarded to employees after 20 years of service to Nintendo HQ.
