    I love the acquisitions thread. Yes it is a pissing contest, but its still cool too see people scoring boxed G1's and seeing a TF at a home rather than a store shelf. By the way I think Jgon is winning....

    I think he's in a one-man competition there. Does anyone else here actively collect G1 boxes? I sure don't - the toys matter to me way more than bits of cardboard.

    I try to. Heroic Decepticon does I think. And The Handsome Crab too I believe. Think there's others as well judging by the $550+ a very recent Scorponok MIB went for. They're quite a bit more than a bit of cardboard. Work of art would be a more apt description. A Rembrandt or a Van Gogh would be just a piece of canvas by your estimation.

    Mmm, I'm pretty sure most of his acq's have a TF with the boxes or are intended to be kept with a loose TF....but I'm too lazy to read through the whole thread again. I must admit I keep my bits of cardboard so that the TF's not on display have a home. I even keep the twist ties!

    And Transformers are chunks of plastic.
