I've noticed that there seem to be an awful lot of sealed toys suffocating in my house. This is something that needs to be remedied. I've chosen nine of these sealed toys at random (above. From top to bottom):

Botcon Sandstorm
e-Hobby Deep Cover
Robots In Disguise Cryotek
E-Hobby Magnificus and Ga’mede
Beast Wars II God Neptune
New Year Special Convoy
Action Masters Jazz
G2 Sideswipe
e-Hobby GADEP

I will open one of these nine pictured MOSC/MISB Transformers. All you have to do is vote for the toy you want to 'preserve'. (By 'preserve', I mean, vote for the toy you least want me to open.) Whichever toy gets the fewest votes for preservation by the end of July is the one I'll open (if there's a tie for the fewest votes, I'll open another poll with the tied toys until we have a 'winner' to liberate.) Feel free to post comments on which toy you chose to 'preserve' and why. (I hope that makes sense. If you have any questions, please ask!)

Yeah, it's called OPEN DEMS ALL! :D I have 7 of those items you've listed and I've opened them all. If I had God Neptune and Cryotek -- you can bet your Asteroid I'd open them! :)

you have to leave AM Jazz sealed mate, It's clearly the most valuable item on your list. :p

AM Jazz is the only one who won't benifit from being opened.... all the rest need it to be proper TRANSFORMERS!!!!

AM Jazz, the rest can come out and come in again in their boxes anyways hehehehe:D they can srtill end up MIB but AM JAzz once he's out, he's just like any other AM jazz from then on:) Not that he's cheap loose mind you.

I think you should open Am jazz. Mainly coz others want him saved. And take tones of pictures or video of it being openned for people to cringe at

Jazz is worthless. Turboboard on the other hand clearly deserves to remain MOSC. ;) :p

That's not what he means nor does it factor in why he wants to keep it sealed.

I agree with opening any of the boxed figures if you wish. Go for Gadep.

As good a theory as any...

I went with Jazz, purely because it's not like he can transform if unsealed anyway & should therefore offer more sealed than the others.

There are also lots and lots of loose AM Jazz toys out there but very few sealed ones. There would be one less sealed Jazz for future generations to enjoy if it gets opened.

It's only an Action Master. No great loss. :p

I don't agree, it is still TF history so AM or not is irrelevant in my train of thought. We have different values when it comes to this sort of thing so we'll never see eye to eye. I already said my bit so it's up to Sky Shadow to decide as they are his toys.

Heh, I voted before reading the thread thinking the most "crap" toy that has the least thing about TRANSFORMers about it should be the one preserved, and everyone else thought so too. :D

I voted for Action Master Jazz because a) it was the only thing in the selection that wasn't a repaint/rerelease of an older toy, and b) it was the oldest thing there so why not keep it sealed a bit longer.

Open 'em all except for AM Jazz and G2 Sideswipe.

AM Jazz is pretty much just as fun sealed as he is loose. Plus you should sell him to me as he's one of the last non-Euro sealed AMs I'm missing. ;)

Sideswipe is my all time favourite of the G1 mould based G2 TFs! He's the only one whose G2 repaint actually looks cool. Definitely open him up. :)

Thanks for the votes, people - only a few days before the poll closes. If you haven't voted to 'preserve' a toy yet, you have until the end of July. :)

JAZZ: Like... hey articulated dude! How about you cut me and my gnarly skateboard out of here so I can totally split to coolsville, man?

GA'MEDE: How about me and my godlike robot make sweet alfresco interspecies love while you watch?

JAZZ: ...That works for me.

MAGNIFICUS: Thanks to everyone who voted!
