Hey mate.... Welcome to the boards!

Welcome to the boards fellow melbournian and nice collection. Also glad to see your a box keeper after opening your toys.

Not a chance I'm letting go of those boxes, to special

Hello and welcome! Nice collection you have there. Also that is a pretty hefty telescope you have!

Sadly it looks better than it works. Great for looking at the moon though, that's about it

Welcome to the boards !!!
Glad to see a new Melbourne member

I'm glad to find there are actually others in Melbourne who collect!

Tip for opening carded toys: use a hobby knife or box cutter to cut open the bubble. That way you can remove it without ripping the backing card. I wish Hasbro would use taped on removable bubbles like TakaraTOMY does. So much more collector-friendly!

There are actually a few that I didn't open for a while. I let them sit in the dustiest place I could find in the house to gather as much dust as they could... and you know what, the outer package just fell right off. I read something about doing this years ago and thought I'd give it a try. I only done it on the ones I had double of. But I'm surprised it worked.

Using a knife might be a faster (and more hygienic) way of opening carded toys IMHO. Wait... you buy everything in double$?? Wow!

Sadly not everything, just every now and then when they're cheap.

Autobot and Maximal all the way. I've always been an Optimus fan, as for figure. Not to sure yet. I've not got myself any MP's yet, but right this second I'd probably throw it on my Armada Unicron How about yourself?
