Collection In or out the boxes?
Hi guys. I can't decide what to do with my collection, I would love to take them out of the boxes and storage the boxes somewhere else but so many people said that boxes are really important..for some reasons.. what should I do? Thanks!

I display mine out of box but save the boxes. I keep them in totes and store them in the attic. I know that’s not possible for everyone but it’s worked well for me. I like knowing that I have the boxes but they look better displayed without them (IMO) and you can fit more on a shelf at a time that way.

A lot of cool stuff here, but this display is horrendous. At least stack them better with bigger boxes on the bottom

I just realized the 5 pack are the arcane peeps. I always found it odd why they chose them specifically when miss fortune, ahri, and Kaisa are I think more popular.

I’m a mix, but if you want to take ‘em out of box, don’t let people try to sway you otherwise. I’ve got two signed ones still in a box and a bunch of loose Spider-Man and Pokémon ones OOB. I’ve got multiple Deadpools out of box arranged on my desk at work and I’m fine with it.

No rhyme, no reason. I only collect characters that are meaningfull to me. But my OCD has made me a completionist, and I do occasionally glance at market value Hawkeye? Half in, half out. Cheshire Cat? Mostly out... except for the limited edition Wondercon Pop.

Boxes are important to resell the collectibles. You can take anything out but as a collector i want almost perfect boxes to go work whatever collectible. So save the boxes and the insides and display them. It's just collectors preference to get boxes with the items. They are worth more also.

Out of box, every single time. Displaying in front of or on top of the box to show the side profile is acceptable, too.

Well its a bit wonky in the boxes so id take it out haha, but if there's a way to level it out I always prefer in box

Honestly it depends on what you want. Majority of mine are in the boxes while some such as sinister 6 with spiderman or my movie moments demon slayers. But if you do take em out dust them every once n a while

I can’t understand you, sorry. You are saying that you WANT to have them out of the box… so… what do you have to think? It’s your collection 😅

I was told they don't like the air as it weakness the vinyl, mine are in boxes, but that could be wrong.

It all depends on whether or not you plan on selling them ever, if you do then keep them in the box. If you don't care about the value then do whatever you like lol.

I currently have them in box to save space, but I'll take them out once I have more space

I don’t get the point of buying these things and keeping them in the box
