How many people collect Transformers and keep them sealed and vice versa?

 

I know what you guys are going to say but I want to hear it from other members here.

Open, play with, display, play with, display, rinse and repeat :D

I have no reason to sell them, and I don't care about them loosing value etc. They're my toys and I'm keeping them. :shrug

I open 'em and toss the packaging.

You're only really appreciating half of a TFer if you keep MISB.

MISB = FTL :fail

Keep sealed if you only plan on selling them. Seriously you wouldnt get an I-Pod or similar and keep it in the packaging why? Cause its designed to play music. Keep a toy in a box why? Its designed to be played with and transformed.

I buy them, I open them!!!

 

If I realy like it, I get a second, and leave that in the box. I think I only have 3 to 7 figures packaged that don't have a loose counterpart on the shelf. PredaKing(the metal version), Dowlos, Sky Lynx, and the first 2 Revoltechs come to mind, and I'm looking for acceptable seconds for them all.

 

There's something to be said for kepping toys MSIB for prosperity(I don't do it for future profit), but there's even more to be said for taking them out and actualy enjoying them :thumb

I always say, I don't understand MISB TF collecting. What's the point of owning a Transformer if you DON'T TRANSFORM IT FROM TIME TO TIME?

Depends on what you prefer, I personally prefer to take them out of their plastic prison, transform them, play and display. I keep the packaging in case I ever finally get to move out of this drafty old flat or if I need to store them away if I run out of space, over 300 TF's take up a lot of room in either mode.

But if you prefer to look at them in the packaging, then that's your choice. But if seems like a waste of money to keep them like that when you could transform them, play with them and get your money's worth. But as said, the choice is yours.

 

-'./,

But if you like the look of toys in their packaging and not out of it you may as well just print pictures of em out.

Open, open, open. Keeping them in the box is just no fun.
