I always open everything, but I think the idea of saving Star Wars figures in the package to resell is ridiculous. The original Star Wars figures are worth a lot in the package because the primary market was children, no one thought to save them, or knew how to protect them if they did, and figures in the package were fairly rare because of that.

Thirty years from now, when George Lucas is dead (or, to be fair, 96 and retired) Star Wars has been replaced by a blockbuster trilogy about Ugandan Refugees or giant robots battling on the moon (or whatever the future holds) and today's collectors have begun to die off from cholesterol and plastic lightsaber injuries, there will be thousands of Star Wars figures from the 1990s and 2000s, preserved in airtight, nitrogen filled, UV protected cases, mint on card and unplayed with, unloved and probably rendered obsolete by the ability to print plastic action figures in your living room from semi-legal downloadable files.

So I'd open them, but that's just me.
