that just really depends on how much you like the packaging.

really buy the cheaper one if displaying out of the box.

Yeah maybe i will, for when i get something MISB it will never stay MISB as i love to get the thing out and actually transform it.

Getting Encore Jazz out and transforming him for the first time really made me feel like i was back in the 80's when i got a brand new Transformer - the weight, the detail, the die-cast metal and chrome etc. and the 80's feeling i got was great - you can really see how the original G1 Transformer toys could never be beaten by the all plastic and detail lacking releases at the end of G1.

add me to the list of Bludgeon owners. Haven't had a chance to open him yet, though.

The walmart I stopped in had at least 4 Bludgeons. It looked like they had recently been stocked.
My heart is die-cast.

I finally gave in and bought this playset. The Igear Computer Control Center (Teletran-1 inside the Ark) I wish they had made this back in the 1980's with the release of the original G1 figures! This thing is huge! It's over 2 ft., 5 inches long and 10 inches tall!

Yes it's alittle pricy, and the pieces don't snap together very tightly and the stickers aren't very sticky and come off easy. BUT>>>>

This minor issues can be overcome with a little dap of super glue on the stickers, and some smaller self-stick velcro on the backside. It really helped make the pieces more sturdy. Here's the pics with G1 figures in it:

You realize Wal-Mart has been generally crap for toys lately, right?

They only rarely have a new release.
