    I keep all the packaging for my toys. I store the toys in them since I don't have room to display them all.

    Mine go into the recycling bin. They just take up too much space, and I usually rip them open like a kid at Christmas anyways. Only the rare, special, or larger 'bots' boxes will I keep(just in case I want to sell them-MIB usually gets a better price than MLC).

    Destroy them/throw them away. The only boxes I keep are of rare items, like Shadow Commander, or Encore Soundwave.

    If it's a TakTomy nice square style box, I keep it. Great for stacking, organizing, etc.

    If it's a wierd shaped trapezoid Hasbro box, it gets scrapped.
