The Unicon.com / Lukis Bros' Story:

Alright, we admit it!  We are serious (Transformers collecting) geeks!  Grown adultes, who still shiver with childish glee when opening up a new Transformers toy, we may fool most of the world into thinging that we're just "normal" guys, but guess again!  Since the very first time we saw them as young children in a "Hills" store near West Seneca, New York in 1984, The Lukis Brothers have been Transformers fans-for-life!  We have countless fond memories growing-up with these robots in disguise. Jason, (still pretty young when the were first released), might have cut a few molers gnawing on the rubber nosecone of one of his first Transformers (Skywarp)! Today, we're loving life and continue this "hobby" for the sheer fun and camaraderie of it all!  Unicron.com was formally extabolished on October 7, 1997, back when the business world was still trying to figure out what exactly the internet was! Originally, the website was created to show off Jason's toy alterations, but it quickly evolved into much more.  In the months and years that followed, we were amazed to learn how many other Transformers fans there were across the world; young and old, some even nuttier than us! What fun!
