I only have two MISB because they might be worth more some day. The rest are loose because I can pose them.

Mine are all out of box. I do not plan on reselling them so I want to be able to play with my toys.

I'd display out of box just because I go through my collection once a month and transform them all just so it's something different to look at. A month later I'll transform them back.

I open mine and toss 99% of the boxes. More room for display.

Re: Showcase In Box or Out of Box?

Anyone notice this topic comes up bout once a month?

I open mine - usually at red lights on the way home from the store. Many times the packaging will stay in my car till I get annoyed. This puts me a very small step above certain large (but very awesome) under age people who open the figures and leave the packaging on other peoples cars.

Re: Showcase In Box or Out of Box?

i open and display them. i keep the boxes though in the closet with all the paperwork they come with. Reason for displaying them is because they look amazing and it's nice to pick them up once in awhile, look at them and fool around with the transformations and poses.
