I don't know how you lot do it but i like to save my new figures so i keep them hanging around in there box for a couple of weeks before i open them even if i have waited weeks to get them .

I'm not sure why i do this i can only think that im tryin to have the best of both sides of collecting MISB and LOOSE now ive had the Battle In Space box set since it came out and Warpath and wheeljack for about 3-4 weeks who i waited 4 months for .

It was only today I had my fill of MISB and broke those bots/cons out which felt terrific so today i have 4 fresh faced warriors on my book case no-one taking the no1 spot in my opinion.

Today was a good day .

Now it does'nt have to be today just the last figure you opened.

PS. Is it just me and a sick fetish or does anybody else like to take in that fresh opened packet smell? ive got to do it with every figure .

I bought and opened DOTM Space Case today. I always open figures as soon as I get them. Sometimes, in the car after leaving the store.

Last TF I opened was Generations Warpath. That was a good day.

Same here. IF they make it home, they rarely ever stay in their boxes an hour.

Yeah, this....but I don't open mine in the car. but I carfully openen them at home in case there is something wrong with it so I can find another and return it. I've been snuffed once by a TF that wasn't complete but I never opened it until way later and couldn't find another in the stores. So....now I make sure he is in good working order, gets transformed a bit and I don't need to return it before it's too late.

I picked up a Generations Thundercracker today and opened him up.

Superlink Grand Convoy

I opened up Cyberverse Battle Steel Optimus Prime.

Easily my favorite of that series, I like the G1/Prime color scheme. And the swords and cannons are neat and come with a few different ways for him to hold and store.

I opened a Cyberverse Sideswipe today. My Takara Animated Rodimus is still in its box. It's been like that for a year now... Actually, now that I think about it, I'm not sure why I bought that.

I get what you mean...im a MISB collector and with the new TF3 movie dropping and me loving the toys....i broke down and open Voyager Sentinel Prime...Walmart Exc. OP( I really like this one!!) and Voyager FB OP( love his sword!!!....and the hands are itching to open SPACE CASE>>>>>>>....

You found a Space Case?? I have yet to find him yet. My city is always the last to get the new stuff.

And for opening a fig, I didn't open anything today, but yesterday I opened a legend Sideswipe I got. I always open my figs as soon as I get them home, unless it's a special one then I may just keep them in their box.

Cyberverse Sentinel Prime yesterday. Wanted a representation of the character, and i'm a poor bastard right now who can't afford or has space for the Leader.

Generations Warpath is on the way. Hoping to have him tomorrow or Wednsday.

You sure know how to come in and steal the show.

Just opened up a set of Botcon Autotroopers.

I had no idea how awesome they were until I actually opened them up and transformed them.

I got DOTM Megatron yesterday. I also got Skyburst w/Aerialbots packaged with Searchlight and Backwind. Skyburst had a manufacturing error so I had to swap out a part with one from the old figure I broke.

(waiting on warpath too) most recently opened HA Sandstorm. My first Dotm figure. I put the shrunken G.I. Joe in a box and put Sandstorm next to Breacher and Backfire.
I don't smell the box but I do always carefully cut away the plastic bubble with an x-acto and save the card.

I didn't just find him, I used the DPCI number and asked an employee to get the case from the back. They are probably at your local Targets just sitting in the back. Go to Target and find a price scanner. There are numbers you can push to enter the DPCI. It will tell you if that assortment is in the stockroom. Then ask an employee nicely if they will pull the box from the back. Here is the DPCI: 087-06-1594. Good luck!!

IGear Ramjet! I am so getting the other coneheads now

Yesterday i got Leader class Ironhide and Sentinel Prime. Opened up Sentinal, but haven't had a chance to open up Ironhide yet. Probabaly going to open him up right after i type this!
Also got HA Roadbuster. Awesome figure. Though with over 40 steps to transform him, i think i'll be keeping him in vehicle mode for a while.

Today i fially opened Cybertronian Megatron and Soundwave had them for a couple of month now and the only reason i didnt open them was because there already transformed i hate it when figures come like that but then again i can't see there alt mode been vey apealing to the kids.

Cyberverse Commander Hatchet, really awesome buy! I must insist that you guys buy him when you find him in stores.
