    Transformers

    We could have never resisted the urge to keep a Transformers action figure in the box. These things needed out and we were right there to help them bust out of their plastic prison. BUT...if you kept it in the box, your patience and willpower paid off.

    Look for: Unopened 1980s Transformers action figures of all kinds. They're going for $2,000.
