I haven't really got anywhere to display them in the boxes but if they were out they wouldn't take up as much room???? Decisions decisions: (
I don't do this for my MU figures, though I wish I had for some, but for some of my adult collectible figures if I want to keep the cardback in as good a condition as possible I use an exacto knife. I just carefully run it around the perimeter of the bubble as close to the card as I feel comfortable and then I have the cardback well saved just with a little layer of clear plastic that outlines where the bubble used to be. It requires a very steady hand with an almost surgical approach, but if you want to open the toy and keep the cardback then it's one of the best ways for blister packed toys.
