Loose. Only keep some moc if I’m planning on getting them signed or if it has unique packaging.

Blend of both. Obviously the rarer and harder to find they are, the more likely I keep them MOC.

Almost 900 loose figures. I think I have one figure set MOC, and I kept the package from the list Jericho and Bubbly Jericho.

I am 99% a loose collector. The 1% is for when I buy a double of a figure I REALLY like to hang on my wall above my gaming PC that I built. I have no intentions on reselling, and if I do as a loose figure, I'll take the hit since it'll be YEARS down the line. I also am lacking a lot of space so I wouldn't even have room for MOC stuff. To each their own though! I have a MOC friend who hates the thought of loose figures so I see both sides! I feel like you are describing me. Everything you state I can relate to haha |

Love me some Sex Ferguson) - Japanese NOAH Kenta Kobashi in black and purple figure - Japanese BJW Jun Kasai red version Figure - Japanese NJPW Great Muta from his match with the Great Nita Figure All with the intention of getting them signed. I shudder to think the grand total I spent on all of them. |

there's no way there's more MOC than loose, i'd guarantee that. if anything i bet the majority is a mix, like myself. i open nearly everything, but like to keep legit exclusives (like Slim Jim Macho, Ringside Hardy's, etc) in the pacakge So you’re more lose than moc? I’d say most 50/50 are the same, more Loose than moc |

I voted loose, but I do keep some specific pieces MOC.
In my younger days, I was a MOC collector and anything I wanted to open I had to buy a duplicate for. Nowadays I only do that with certain things, like the MOTWWU line and exclusives. Otherwise, if I want it for my collection, it's to open.

Yeah; I think there are some special release or packaging that is worth keeping MOC. Or you get something signed obviously.
I initially started MOC but as collection grew and wanting to do some fixups to make figures better (kneepads, headswaps etc) had to open them up.
With the elite & basic main line packaging changing every so often there is no uniform look or size of package.
Bottom Line: A Collection displayed looks better loose and saves more space.
