I was wondering which would be better...keep my figures in the box or display them out of the box? What do you guys think?

If you can live with it, MOC but If your like I can only keep them in the boxes for a couple of hours.  |

I don't collect figures or anything, but I say keep them in the box. Once you take them out, they can never be back in the box on day, plus the box gets destroyed (usually). Just my 2 cents.

I open all of mine except the super rare ones. All of the regular figures and varients i have are opened. The only MOC figure I have is a package sample TI Darla.

I was just wondering because some of my boxes have seen better days. Plus I think that they look better out of the box. |

In the end you just gotta do what you want, whatever makes you happiest.

I opened everything but my World Tour Willow. I know they lose resale value but they were worth more to me open at the time.
If you're really not sure maybe open a couple of the less valuable ones first and see what you think then.

I keep all my figures unopened. I think their value is more that way, and they are easier to display/store. If I were to open mine, I am sure I would lose some of the accessories anyway, would be really hard to keep track of if you ever had to pack everything up. But, like others have said, you ultimately make the choice as to wheter you will leave them MOC or open them up.

I only open the super cheap ones and the ones in seriously damaged boxes.

I open all mine. I know they lose value etc but I just can't resist. Unless it was a really rare figure that you wanted to keep in mint condition I would say open them. It's up to you though,don't let any of us persuade you into doing what you dont want to I like the previous suggestion,open one see if it suits then decide from there! |

I can't open anything Willow related...and have a hard time opening things myself. I just feel my heart break for some reason. So...I either buy loose figures or damaged boxes if I want to put figures in my display. I have opened things in the past but yeah...my heart hurts when I do it.
