I've never gotten a TF for a present, and I don't really like to take stuff back, so no.
Man, reading all the responses so far , STL is getting crucified :p:o
Poor STL... :(Quote:

If it's a free gift, why wouldn't you keep it to use for trades or regifting.

If you don't give some sort of positive appreciation, toys aren't the only thing she's gonna stop giving you... :p
Besides, if a girl with a willingness to buy you toys is a problem, there's plenty of us here who'll be happy to take her off your hands. :D

When it comes to things like this, especially with your missus, you have to take it.
She was expecting you to be over the moon. I mean, I am assuming she knows you'd prefer a Transformer over cloths, so she's done something really nice and got you a Transformer. Even though the price wasn't a good one, how much you save getting it else where? What 5, 8 bucks? It is also her money, so you aren't spending anything, you've saved 27, gotten a Transformer, and most importantly, made her happy by the excitement/joy you get from her gift. It is a Win, Win, Win situation.

Like I said, crucified.
Aw come on. Do I look crucified to you folks? She understood totally, I've trained her well. :) She didn't mind at all as she knows I buy the majority of stuff at sale prices hence my crazy shopping expeditions at sale times And she knows my price benchmarks are $35 for Voyager, $20 a Deluxe so nothing to murder me about. She just thought I might want him early since I'm so obsessed with this "G1" thing.
