why bother if you don't even plan on displaying it? i've never understood why people buy figures and never open them, especially expensive figures that aren't visible in their packaging.

i can sort of understand for non transforming figures that are well visible in their packages.. but high end figures with great articulation and a bunch of accessories that isn't visible in the packaging seems like a big waste to me. why not just buy a box and print out a photo of the packaging to glue it on..

i've noticed that the things that tend to appreciate in value are the more expensive lego sets. those things are ridiculous..

oh well, people can do what they want.

as for your question.. if it's MISB, it's not your problem if you sell it and it turns out it's defective.. you just won't have a very happy customer.
