So for Christmas I bought my 4 year old Nephew a scout class Oilpan (http://i1123.photobucket.com/albums/l541/UltraMarginal/UltraMarginals%20phone%20pics/2011-12-25074948.jpg).

Then someone else bought him a Jetwing Prime for his 5th (http://i1123.photobucket.com/albums/l541/UltraMarginal/UltraMarginals%20phone%20pics/2012-02-19155450.jpg)Birthday (http://i1123.photobucket.com/albums/l541/UltraMarginal/UltraMarginals%20phone%20pics/2012-02-19155508.jpg)a couple weeks ago. I had to rescue this one part way out of the pack to keep it's legs attached.

10 minutes later I found it in his beroom and both feet had popped off:eek:

I was never like that at that age. I always carefully opened my toys, and in the case of Transformers carefully cut out the tech specs, robot points and packaging art. Here's a few that I've managed to hang onto; all are figures that I purchased and opened in 1989-1990.

As another 'evil' MISB collector I should be shocked.
But i'm not.

I am not going to push my need to keep Transformers sealed, or dictate how they are too be opened.

Been many a time I have witnessed a toy I have sold someone being opened (and also broken) in front of me.

And they are kids toys, so why not rip those suckers open!

I was the same as you Gok.... But I still have most of it. Been teaching the Kids the art of opening things too.
