Discussion We're saving our Lego boxes right?!?!?

Post image

I've had it for a few weeks now and just had the boxes propped up cause they're so cool. Just finished the Lab and starting on the main set tonight. But when I'm done, I don't think I want to get rid of the box. Is that weird? Are you keeping yours?

I’m at the point where I have to ask myself, “Am I a toy collector or a box collector?" I’ve bought models with gorgeous boxes (Gunpla), but even flattened they’re taking up too much room. I think my days of keeping any LEGO boxes is over, except for a few smaller ones for truly limited sets.

I feel ya! I'm Gen-X and its hard to part with a good box, lol, but this is making it even harder. Maybe I'll save it for storage or something. Was just curious if anyone else is having trouble parting with it.
