Hey Guys, As you all know its not easy finding friends who are into what we are into. I had a great Idea to start a Robot Collectors Club in Los Angeles for people who live close by each other. Here are the things I thought we could do: Start a Youtube Channel and do weekly videos as a group. Start a website for our club with pics and videos of our collections. Go to toy shows as a group. Hang out at each others house and discuss Robots and various pieces of our collection etc These are just a few things I could think of for now. I live in West Hollywood and I don't mind drivin at all to meet some cool new collectors like myself. I can even pick you guys up if your not too far ! I have tons of robots stored away that I haven't even touched yet and would love to do video reviews on them !! If you interested Drop me a line here or PM and we can get this thing rolling !! Thanks Inframan AKA Jon P.S. Check out my YouTube page, I have about 70 awesome Robot Reviews from my collection already, lets add more from everyone !! www.youtube.com/user/jondeak

Timmy! Hope you're settling in good. Glad you guys are having fun over there. That Frank n Sons has been on my to do list for years. I'll yodel to you guys to do a roundup if I get out there. Have Jungle Collectors shop and a couple others on the list that pics look really good of.
Ed, c'mon now! Florida has gotta have some El Cheapo empty industrial/shopping buildings on the market for rent. Round up Patrick, Charles, Jack, Bryan, Bobby, Christian, Tony, all the StPete/Tampa crew, and start the FL version of F & S. Woo ooo, ahahaha.

Yeah we need more people to come on trips to Frank & Sons... and watch me try to fit Jumbo Machinder into a tiny 370Z Roadster. It's funny. We could also do an anime night, watch like a movie or 5-6 episodes of a TV series!
