If I could, I'd save all the packageing, but anymore I keep only the instructions, comics, cards/tech specs. If that means cutting, than so be it. The only box I've ever kept is Unicron, because it makes nice a nice box to store stuff in, even if it isn't a TF.

No, but I've started saving everything with the Alternators. The boxes just look so damn good.

For the boxed TF's I keep all the packaging materials. For the carded figures I throw the plastic and card away b/c I haven't found a good way of opening them w/o tearing up the packaging.

I have saved all the reissue boxes. They are taking up room under my bed though. Everything else gets tossed.

I used to keep the boxes, but when I started to lose space to display the actual toys, they had to go. I'm planning to keep the boxes for my Takara TF G1 collection though and the BinalTech series, but that's it.

I keep all packaging now. I just consider it a part of the whole when I buy a figure. The Transformer is the primary collectable, but the box or card and paperwork is part as well.

 

I used to trash all boxes when I was a kid. Now I wish I'd kept them.

I keep all of the packaging within reason - I don't bother with the little wire things or plastic things they attach to. The box helps protect the bot from damage and is good for transporting it. It also helps stop the bot getting dusty - the main reason I don't leave my TF's out on display.

I save all of my TF packaging. Even the blisters.
