Definitely out of package. Especially with the adult stuff like NECA. You can't truly appreciate all of the fine details on these pieces without freeing them from Magneto prison. It also takes up a lot less space to open 'em up and throw out the packaging. To me if you're in the toy collecting hobby mainly hoping to one day turn a profit on them, get out. Toys are not a good or reliable source for increased value over long periods of time. It has to be something like Star Wars which gains phenomenal levels of popularity and demand in order for any increase of value to happen. So free them from Magneto prison and appreciate them as you were meant to. Some things are extremely rare and worth keeping in box, but for just about everything else go ahead and open it.
