What's up everyone, this is my first post ever on here, I just recently joined in the summer. Anyways, I'm a loose collector but I tend to save the box from each mattel figure I open. I was wondering if anyone here does the same? I just thought it was kinda weird of me to do that so I wanted to find out if I was the only one. Thanks!

I used to save the cards, because I thought they were nicely designed, but I ran out of room so just recycled them all.

I did the same for quite some time but now i realize if youre a loose collector there is not much point is saving the boxes but i kept a few still because they are unique or special to me
But from now on, if i keep the box im going to keep it MOC and if i open the box you might as well throw it away

I have kept a few from the older elite and DM lines. After all how can you trash packaging like the DM Bret Hart box?

I still do. My attic is full of em. I'm not really a seller, I pretty much strictly collect. But I was always told as a child to always save the packaging of my toys. So I did for the most part. The way I see it is that if for some odd reason I do decide to sell some off it would be better/worth more with the package. So if you have the room just save em

I do for exclusives, especially RSC exclusives or Defining Moments where the box is customized. I used to do it for every Elite, but I decided to only keep exclusive boxes and recycle the others.

I've kept most of mine as well. I have them in the garage.

You will be absolutely stunned by how much extra room you have if you throw those boxes out.

Used to but after realizing I never did anything with them I just threw em all away and now trash em immediately.

I was wondering if anyone here does the same? I just thought it was kinda weird of me to do that so I wanted to find out if I was the only one. Thanks! I always bought 2 of the same figure and opened one and kept the other MOC (which I only collect Flashbacks or the ones of older wrestlers, don't collect today stars). But I started running out of room so I quit buying flashbacks to keep moc and just decided to keep the DM's, RSC's and the SDCC or just whatever Elite that came out that has detail to the packaging. I don't see the point in collecting moc to store off in a bin and hide in the attic or closet for years. If you're gonna collect you should display them. But IMO, they look better displayed loose because of the way mattel changes the package so much. DM's look good displayed moc because of the detail and how they never change the design |

Keeping the box without the figure is useless imo.
Some of these figures look so good in the box so I'll keep some moc and just buy another if I want it loose too

I keep all the boxes but I throw away the bubbles. I'm very nostalgic so I like to go back and look at them from time to time. I also know how much I loved/miss a lot of my stuff from when I was a kid and refuse to let myself regret not having something I once owned again

I used to save them, but when I moved I had to throw them all out. Now, I throw them away immediately.

I'm a keeper of boxes. Never really understood why I kept them, but I do. Got 4 ceiling-high stacks in the corner of my bedroom.

For space reasons, I keep the figures loose and throw the boxes away.
If they have unique (exclusive) packaging, or I expect that I may want to get it signed - I'll keep them MOC.

Collect loose, recycle all packaging. I've never felt the need to look at a box or card after I've opened it.
