Well I just wanted to know how people prefer there collection do you like you figures in package? If so, why? Are do you like to open them up?
Me I love to Rip open the package n hold the figure in hand pose them till I find the right pose and then put them on the shelf lol I also like to get extras of my favorite figures n keep them in package but that's just for trade are just in case some thing happens to the one I have displayed but I'm definitely an out of the package kind of guy how but yall what do u prefer

Open most, if not all. Doubles would be the only exception to that "rule", they remain sealed.
I cut the bubble off of the card, throw the bubble away and file the cardback away, keep the instructions and useless (or easy to lose) accessories in seperate freezer bags. Anything bigger then a deluxe, the box gets chucked. Unless it's something expensive, like third party for instance. I keep all of that packaging no matter how small. IE: Headrobots Blood or the classics Starscream coronation set are some that some to mind. Other toylines (DCUC, Predators, etc.) I do the same if it is on a card, if not, gar-bage.

I open some. I've left others MOC. Some figures loose their luster once they've been opened, due to poor quality (arms/legs pop off, or worse) and honestly I don't always like to display MU because there are just too many of them. It is too damn much to keep track of anymore.

For TFs larger than deluxe-class, I will usually cut out the back side of the box, especially if it has a bio, stats or some other character info on it. Those get filed with the other cardbacks and instructions. And I hang onto any packaging for exclusives, even if it's just a white mailer box (helps with storage/moving).

I don't PP looks like his stuff is more organized than mine. Those are old pic and I just recently started to organize a little bit more. My MUs Wave 1-17 are all in order now on the pegs. I took down a bunch of minimates/SHS and other odd shaped toys and just trying to keep the Wolvie stuff, MU and Joes up. The Joes are all together- 25th, ROC and POC. Everything else just goes where it fits
