Late to the party as usual but still gonna throw this in. I have never been into keeping toys in package. As a kid I clipped the tech-specs and robot points and turfed the rest. Having said that, seeing that image of Perceptor and Blaster in box gave me that special thrill we had as kids just 'window shopping' - staring at toys that were too expensive or too numerous for us to get.

Now as then, I open and transform a toy a minimum of twice (alt-mode and back) before finding a way to display it. The exception is toys I see on sale that I'm not sure I want myself, but think a friend might like. Naturally, they stay in packaging. I think there's three in my room at present awaiting the day I can give them to people in person again.
