i know alot of people who dont open theyre figures because they think itll decrease the value. this is somewhat true i guess, but i have seen the same figure in box going for around the same price loose in great condition.
personally, i dont see the point in collecting if you arent going to open them and play with them, set them up, pose them, etc.
your thoughts?

I keep mine in the packaging, not because of value or anything I just like how they look that way. I've collected loose previously and wasn't a fan of how they looked set up that way, much prefer them on the wall plus they look awesome signed. Personal preference I guess  |

Personal preference I guess i do like the way they look in box on the wall, i used to not open them. then i figured what the hell, and opened them all. haha but i do get them signed and that does look awesome. just picked up an E7 Shawn michaels to get signed in october when i meet him. |

I had gotten a lot of tna deluxe, MITB and loose and had the stevie richard and daffney two pack it was hard for me to open them since they were both MITB they both looked good in there, so after two days MITB lost the battle and I open them. |

I keep mine in the package because it looks nice plus you won't have to deal with your figs falling down nonstop.

some figures look great in package, i must admit.
When i started collecting, I kept them MOC. Once I got to around 12 figures, I realized they were taking up too much display space. Now i keep them loose. I can fit them all in a cabinet. Saves so much space

I do both depending on how much I like the figure, If its a great figure like Kane e12 I'll buy two, one for opening and one moc. But of course I prefer loose because of the posing and space.

I open mine because I have no intention on selling my collection. Also because my fiancee would kill me if I turned our room into a Toys R Us aisle.
