I tend to second this.

Only thing I would mention about takara's version that in Hong Kong the price is only marginally more expensive.

The key thing about the takara packaging is that you can happily put it back and keep the MIB feel.
The issue collectors in HK have with the Takara are the stickers and putting the weapons together... but I tell them to stop bitching and moaning because you didn't complain at G1 when we did this

If you haven't started collecting yet, its a great time to start. I have a feeling this series will be one of the most popular and will be hard to find toys in a year or so time.
(except bumblebee - there THOUSANDS of that toy around...)
