Agreed. Although I do admire the restraint MISB owners have to be able to not open the toys. I can resist all things but tempation. ;)

This thread is both Vile and Awesome at the same time.
I love how it horrifies me and leaves me jealous all at once. :cool:
I guess I can't really identify since I don't collect G1 but all my TFs get opened and displayed.
Having said that though, I collect classic and non-classic video game consoles and some of them remain MISB so I sort of understand the reason why some TFs never really serve their intended purpose (of being a toy and being played with). :rolleyes:
This thread is madness. MY EYES!
Ok these may not be G1s nut hey they're pretty old considering Zippo had them stashed at the back... until I got them hehehehe.... Freeeedddoooooooom!

Hahaha, GG liege. Earlier this year I got a couple of job lots of sealed G1/G2 figures like Stormtroopers, Skyscorchers, Constructicons, Rotor Force and such all MOSC.. Yeah I opened all those bastards up and applied the stickers. Decision was made easier since most cards weren't in great condition, but still. Feels good man.

Zoooommmm...
Blitz/G2 Ransack has an awesome transformation and gives me a kind of nostalgia, since his partner, Powerdive, was one of the handful of G2 toys I bought as a ki... um... teenager. The only odd thing about this toy is that some of the plastic is kind of... furry? Kind of rough, like it's been sanded. I actually find that sort of thing a bit when opening G2 toys - maybe something about the glue used to seal the packages? Or sunlight? Or maybe lack of quality control didn't just appear out of nowhere in the late 2000s?
