December Acquisitions

[5FDP]

I know I'm gonna cop a bit for this acquisition but... meh Bought an AFA case for my Megatron box which I purchased from 1AZRAEL1 last month. I figured the thing has survived for almost 30 years; this gives it the best chance to last another 30




Yes, I know it's an empty box

i think you need a good hard look at yourself an empty box in a display case... go stand infront of the mirror and ask yourself... why have i not got myself a loose megatron to fit into this one hell of a sexy box...

now i dont want to see another aquisition from you young man until that hole in the foam has been filled....:P

in all seriousness.. that was a wonderful looking box, now atleast it will stay that way... how much did the case cost if you dont mind me asking???

Yeah, I know. I'm sick and need help

I do actually have a loose Megs however he's in my display case standing opposite Prime. If I put him in the box, it will screw up the aesthetics of my display case and I can't afford another Megs to replace him.

The case was bought from AFA's eBay store and cost approx. $50. Shipping was about the same. Their obviously custom made to fit and they come in the following styles - '84 Autobot cars, '84 Decepticon jets, '84 Prime, and '84 Megatron. They also have cases for combiners e.g. Constructicons, however these are a very poor fit and the cards will slide around inside.

**Word of warning** - if you (or anyone) are thinking of buying one, its best that the flap of the box is as straight as possible. If it isn't, it's near impossible to make it fit as there is an internal 'holder' which the flap has to sit under and you wouldn't be able to stick your hand in there to maneuver it into position.

Hey thats a nice case, makes the box display even better! Now the challenge is getting it out if you ever get a another megs to go in there! I've given up trying to get my ones out that I put in the sliding bottom cases!

Damn, that's a very very nice box, don't care if its empty. Kudos for obtaining it. If I were in AU, I would have fought you in a sandpit blindfolded for it... MIB Megatron is one of the most cherished pieces in my collection.

Wow! It's an empty AFA Graded box!

*bids $5,000*

It may be an empty box but it's AFA Graded and that's all that counts

That's one of the nicest looking box I've seen.

Im thinking that's "waiting" and is a typing error, otherwise it would sound like a "skinflick acquisition".

Kidding aside Krayt how many issues are there .....someone's busy "at work" hehehe

[Krayt]

of the 36 they are up too, ones in the mail, and 2 i had... so 33 issues...

some of the features on previous years actually want me to pull out armada and have a look through the storage box

and spelling mistakes are expected when your not allowed on non-work sites and i'm typing too quick to proofread before someone sees :-P
