Well I don't remember when I joined the forum... I guess it's around 2000 and everyone is begging for a 1/55 strike valkyrie. The only way I could get one is to buy Jetfire, or get a rare joon (the one with tha ugly bright blue canopy).
One thing I could remember is that I got into this site by googlin around information about a 1/55 variable valkyrie, which was totally new for me... by then I was a macross fan for 4 years.
Man I was young... around 20.
