Are you a narcissistic, masochistic insomniac with ADHD and a healthy dose of tech savvy? If so, you could probably do pretty much anything you want, but, you know, you’re welcome to volunteer here at Galactic Hunter.

Why would you want to do a thing like that? I know! (Believe me, I know.)

You’ll get to hear a lot of toy gossip — 85% of it turns out to be bull, but it’s entertaining bull. You’ll sometimes get into events free to take pictures and pester manufacturers about their latest hush-hush projects. (And sometimes, if you’re lucky, all the free bottled water you can appropriate from the press room). You’ll get your own GalacticHunter.com e-mail address and a snazzy forum title. You’ll receive countless e-mails from me telling you to do stuff, and you’ll receive a constant barrage of suggestions and criticism (from me, natch).

If you’re ambitious (pushy) and hardworking (vicious) you could even parlay that into a job in the industry, like our friend and Associate Editor Adam Pawlus is doing.

Position requires a sense of humor and humility; knowledge of Adobe Photoshop or similar photo editing software (i.e. Photoshop, nothing else compares); understanding of this Internet box thing; expedited patience and boorish gratitude; and a love of most things Star Wars. (Let’s face it, if you love all things Star Wars, you’ve already got a job being Steve Sansweet.) It helps to be independently wealthy (e.g. trustafarian), over the age of 18, and kinda not bigoted (we’re multiculturalized here). If’n ya’ll can make a picture, and have a picture box, that’s real good. (We’re Nikon snobs, but don’t let that stop you.)

If you’re interested, e-mail me at adam_may (cute-little-at-symbol) galactichunter.com, and tell me in at least 100 words why you buy all of this stuff? Or something like that…

All submissions that are dull will be pretty much deleted, but if you become famous, they’re the property of GalacticHunter.com. That means I can sell your story to the highest bidding media outlet. Bribes are accepted, but that goes without saying.
