I don't have any rule about what I open and what I don't. Sometimes it comes down to space issue, sometimes I just really want to take a toy out of the package and hold it. Other times I really appreciate the overall aesthetic of the toy and packaging and either keep it unopened, or open it carefully so I can put it back in the packaging and still display it that way.

I don't buy with the intent on reselling. Not that I have never sold any of my collectibles, I have, that just isn't my intent when I originally buy. I buy because the item is something I really want and I still don't open all my stuff, so I don't agree with the point of view that you only keep toys MIB in order to sell them later.

There have been times where I've opened up a bunch of stuff that I had never opened, which is quite fun. It feels like Christmas morning.
