    Is there a place where one can go to see an updated population report? Any time I've ever gone to their site it always says that they are in beta mode. If you have a paid subscription do you have access to more information?

    NGB are the holiest of the holy as far as MISB G1 goes for me, JK you must surely be close to one of the best sealed NGB collections known?

    All the best

    No Grey Border - Look between the window and the character art, most of the releases had that border colored grey.

    I can appreciate them for their insane rarity, but I've always liked the look of the border better. NGB just looks like they forgot to finish the box to me :D

    Love this thread. I don't own any AFA, just too rich for my pay scale. I do want to own a AFA G1 Jazz one day. My first ever Transformer, want to recapture the moment in a nice sealed box :)  I see some on ebay, but don't know how to gauge if the prices are good or not.

    You can check the population report but it is notoriously not up to date. It will give you a good idea of how many of any particular figure is out there though and I believe it is free to sign up for an account to access it.

    Hey Maz

    Not quite- I moved a couple of them but there are definitely some people out there with more focused NGB collections.

    I know Cro also has a nice White Border collection of minibots.

    The pop reports are as Ark said not updasted. But Ive emailed customer service for updated pop reports and theyll send you whatever you need.
