    I would consider the non-transforming mail order STARS Command Centre as a toy and part of a Transformers collection (despite TF Wiki regarding it as merchandise).

    Merchandise and Toys can be Interchangeable with one another depending on the brand/item
    In the case of transformers franchise.

    I define the toy
    As a the main item being focused on which is ethier the playable representation of a character or/and alternate mode that may transform or not transform made by Takara-Tomy and Hasbro.

    I define merchandise
    as sometime not considered as the main item not being focused on in this case the toy and licenced by Hasbro and Takara=Tomy

    With this being said my personal preference is i do not get any toy that dose not transform which is the point of the theme of Transformers but, i might buy merchandise like a mug with an autobot logo
