ManaMinori 4,145 November 11, 2015 Share November 11, 2015 How can you play with them if they're in the box?! Seriously though, I have about half of mine open. The rest I've resisted the urge, but mostly because I'm moving. Once I do, those suckers are going to be open so fast it'll make their plastic heads spin. you're not supposed to play with collectables, though.

Bird Mom 900 November 11, 2015 Share November 11, 2015 I open mine. I can't handle just seeing them cooped up in a box. "Pay attention to these petals, Steven. The petals' dance seems improvised, but it is being calculated in real time based on the physical properties of this planet. With hard work and dedication, you can master the magical properties of your gem and perform your own dance!"

azbat 305 November 29, 2015 Share November 29, 2015 I keep my Water Cuties in the box because you can see all the way through the packaging and the ponies don't get as dirty. Hot Wheels always stay in the box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rarity Is Best Pony 634 December 29, 2015 Share December 29, 2015 I keep my MLP funko figures in their boxes, simply because I really like the design of the packaging. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maishul 12 December 29, 2015 Share December 29, 2015 If I buy something, I like to pop the box open. I just enjoy seeing my things the way they're meant to be displayed and like to be able to pick them up and examine them. I keep most of them on a shelf, save for my Link amiibo and Marceline Pop Vinyl figure, which I keep on my computer desk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RainbowPastel 185 December 29, 2015 Share December 29, 2015 I usually open my ponies once I finally have a place to display them. Some of the Comic-Con ponies like the ones with the SWAROVSKI crystals I keep boxed up on display because the boxes are beautiful. My cider brings all the ponies to the yard and they're like its better than yours, damn right it's better than yours.

ChefSandy 22 December 29, 2015 Share December 29, 2015 Both. It really depends on the toy. 2012 SDCC Derpy is out of her box though I still have it but 2013's Vinyl Scratch isn't. All my pocket ponies are arrayed, but I have some of the early released FiM brushables in their packaging with the mini-DVDs. Full set of the Target Power Ponies set in their packages, but I have an out-of-box Rarity-as-Radiance on my shelf. Funkos are out of box. Signed toys stay in their box. I also don't have any more room on my Pony shelf. Rarity is Best Marshmallow I Am Full Of Words Bronyville Podcast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comic Sans 401 December 30, 2015 Share December 30, 2015 When I first started buying ponies, I kept them in the boxes, but I later thought, well, why am I bothering? I'm not planning to sell them on in the future or anything as I doubt they would even have any sort of value, plus they're literally only there for display. So I decided to open them.

Steve Piranha 29,420 January 6, 2016 Share January 6, 2016 I always open mine, they're easier to display and store that way. Besides, most of the MLP toys are way too common to be worth much money down the road anyway. Give them a couple of decades then, they should be worth 40$ at least Nah, I like to get them out, I like to touch poneh when I'm down Sig by Discords Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frecklesareblooming 225 January 6, 2016 Share January 6, 2016 I keep mine boxed, but I've been seriously considering unboxing them because I don't plan to sell them any time soon and they just take up a lot less room that way.

ManeStay 235 January 11, 2016 Share January 11, 2016 I always take them out of the box to display. That's what I do with all the merch I collect. Always have and probably always will I keep my Equestria Girls and some of my brushables boxed but other than that, no. The Equestria Girls I can understand keeping in the box because their boxes look really cool with the character pictures and all. (Still doesn't stop me from opening mine though lol) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides, most of the MLP toys are way too common to be worth much money down the road anyway. You obviously haven't seen how much some of the Funkos can go for eBay, particularly Luna and Celestia. Most of mine are still boxed, at least for the moment, and that's how they'll stay until I have a house and a decent display cabinet to put them in. Even then, they'll be opened carefully, and the boxes stored in the attic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why buy toys if you aren't going to PLAY with them? Toys! I'm thirty seven, I don't buy toys! I buy collectible actions figures and figurines. Totally different, honest. I may take them off the shelf every now and then to re-pose them for much longer than it should probably take, but that's allowed.

To each their own decisions are wise; you are always welcome to your own opinion, of course. However, I can't help but feel that you're missing the point of 'toys' in the first place. *shrug* Ah, well... 1 ===== ( 0 ) ===== Fnord. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
