Just wanted to know what everyone does with their packaging once they've opened the figures?
I've kept all of mine but they are growing rapidly not leaving much space which is urging me to throw them away. I was going to keep them especially the Elite boxes as they go back into there pretty easy.

As a loose collector, I don't see the point in keeping an empty box, even the Defining Moments ones so they all get thrown away.

You can throw your empty boxes my way - I'll gladly pay for the shipping.

Haha, I started to keep mine once I got the RSC Exclusive Kane. I have it hanging on the wall, I think if I buy the Exclusive Punk I'll put that box next to his. I also just recently figured out how to open the Basic boxes with out really messin 'em up so I thing I'm gonna start with those too.

I keep the boxes and hang them on the wall, the basics I cut 3 sides around the bubble so its open but still is in tact with the carding Every Mattel figure I have bought's box is on my wall  |

At first I kept all of the boxes but after a while they took up that much space I just threw them away.

I keep them in a big bag, stacked upon each other. Just in case I ever want to re-package them.

I kept almost all of my CS boxes until series 22 or 23 thinking I would resell them. Then I realized that if the person buying wasn't going to come pick them up with their car, they'd cost an arm & a leg to ship. So now I throw all packaging out. I was gonna keep DM boxes and SDCC Taker's box, but changed my mind. Somewhere there's a landfill with thousands of dollars of WWE Figure packages in nice shape sitting in the dumps.

I toss them. Sometimes I'll cut off the bio on the back or keep the Legends cardbacks

Yeah this makes a lot of sense, best to get rid of them really. |

I throw them away. All they do is take up space.

I collect both MOC and loose, more often MOC. But if I open a figure, the box goes in the trash. I only have so much room...

I used to keep every single box I got. Now I just cut the bubble off the carding and keep the backs. I just recently threw away probably 300+ Jakks boxes I had stashed in my parents attic in their garage. Still have quite a few to go in my basement that I'll eventually get around to throwing away.

I keep all my elite and legends packaging. I was able to open the legends really neatly too, i mean a little bit of glue would seal them back together perfect just for display if i ever needed. But not so much worried about them as i am the elite packaging. I do the same thing and collect them all. I bought a Tubberware container that is huge and i just stack them all in there in a few rows and put the lid on for storage. thats only cause i got a new puppy atm, but other than that i was going to leave them on my book shelf in order like DVD's would haha
