I wouldhave opened it also but would not build it.

I would be too scared to open it that box bit too excited not too.

That I definitely agree with, but it would be nice to have 2 NIB of everything if you really wanted to keep one NIB. My Optima, Advance and Boxer will also be built to boxart and strictly for display. If I want to run one of those buggies then I will have to find a good used one to do so, no way will my new builts ever get run.

This is a good point; unless it's going to be worth a ton soon, or I already paid a fortune for it, I'd rather use it and enjoy it that just let is appreciate in value for years and years.

Good for you! Enjoy the build!

Do It!

Now that is funny, been a while since I've seen that clip. I have used that many times in the past as a laugh when it fits the situation.
