Just ruined the flap on my G1 Authetic Optimus Prime

:sad:

I basically stole a MINT G1 MIB Optimus Prime. I had it for one day and stored it in my closet. I looked at it again the next day and the flap was somehow bent up. Someone had to come in my closet and screw around with him.

So pissed. I'd post pictures but I don't wanna even look at it right now. I know for a fact it was mint when I got him this past Saturday. This guy keeps him for 22 years and he is mint. I have him for 24 hours and the flap gets bent.

Do you have roommates, siblings, etc? Who could've got in your closet and damaged it? A pet, perhaps?

How can you tell if it is an original or the knock off that's going around? What country did the figure come from?

Congratulations! I'd love to add an original Megatron and Optimus Prime to my collection. The reissues are great, but there's nothing like a tried and true original from 1984!

Do you mean the box flap or the trailer door? If it is the box flap that sucks. If you mean the trailer door that would be worse.

Longs for the days of G1 where we only had to worry about Megatron, Soundwave and Laserbeak wanting to be Autobots, Swoop calling himself Tracks and Slingshot calling himself Slingslot!
