Lunastep 34 August 23, 2012 Share August 23, 2012 (edited) My sister recently bought me a My little Pony Wedding set with 3 really good figures. Should i open the box and put the characters on the shelf or should i leave the box closed? Heres a picture: https://encrypted-tb...tE6AAdFi0_jEnPw So open it or leave it closed? Edit: My sister wants me to trade my princess cadence for a wonderbolt, should i do it?

termenchecks 146 August 23, 2012 Share August 23, 2012 Did she buy it for her self? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twiliscael 3,960 August 23, 2012 Share August 23, 2012 Trick question. Open them AND keep the box closed afterwards :3 Seriously, I'd open them. If I had 'em, there's a possibility probability that I'd play with them. Don't judge me. 6 I tend to take the high road, get stoned, and fly low . . .

Pan the Fabulous Ferret 2,642 August 23, 2012 Share August 23, 2012 hmmm thats the blind bag twilight sparkle... And those are the best quality that I have seen. Is it YOURS, you said your sister bought it? if its yours than I would say open it up and put it on a shelf! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evilshy 5,090 August 23, 2012 Share August 23, 2012 If she bought it FOR you, I'd say open and display them. If she didn't, then obviously you can;t just open her stuff unless she says you can. Signature now 99% less edgy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lunastep 34 August 23, 2012 Author Share August 23, 2012 To be clear she bought it for me, she bought herself a cloudsdale set and she opened it. Im just wondering if i should open mine too Previously known as Phil Be sure to visit Creative resources In the MLP forums to get free signatures from me!

Vicke 3,189 August 23, 2012 Share August 23, 2012 This is what i do. I keep them in the box because of the value on it. And when you cant buy it annymore i will probably sell it. and yes, i do think its nicer to have them in thier boxes.

Thats what i was thinking, in the future i can just sell this and then get newer items with the money i have. I mean the point of collectibles is to buy them, hold on to them then sell them to get newer things right? Plus they look epic in the box Previously known as Phil Be sure to visit Creative resources In the MLP forums to get free signatures from me!

Dusty Soul 2,611 August 23, 2012 Share August 23, 2012 I think I would keep them in the box, just because it probably is more safe (if your going to save them rather then play with them) to be in the box. Also they would be worth more if left in the original packaging. Soundcloud-------------------Facebook---------------------------Youtube Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apple Bloom 2,933 August 24, 2012 Share August 24, 2012 It's really up to you, but if it were me, I would open it. Ponies must be free of their plastic prisons! As for the trade, that depends on which one you prefer, doesn't it? Of course, you could keep Cadance and get the Cloudsdale set later. 3 Signature by @Nico. Come join us for movies and more!

XUNUSEDXXX 3,459 August 24, 2012 Share August 24, 2012 I would open it. The box is more of a showcase thing and I would enjoy them more if they were free haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Final Rainbow 8 August 24, 2012 Share August 24, 2012 I'd definately open it up, it looks way better when they stand on a shelf, free, as they are supposed to be^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweet Jewels 25 August 24, 2012 Share August 24, 2012 Its entirely a preference thing. Some people like opening their collectables, some don't (as this thread clearly shows). In terms of reselling collectables to get new ones, that's something I don't understand personally. Collectables are to collect... so why would you sell them? Unless it's not something you really want, I suppose. Basically, do whatever you want XP 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spaghettinoodles 298 August 24, 2012 Share August 24, 2012 I'd open it, I always open my pony stuff. I don't care if it loses some of its value as a result, I don't see the point in purchasing a pony toy if you never even take it out. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miss Light Diamond 2,802 August 25, 2012 Share August 25, 2012 Open it and then start a big collection and have them all lined on a shelf or something, that's what I would do Something something something something Ask me stuff...and all my OC's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valureon 93 August 25, 2012 Share August 25, 2012 I would open it up and put them on my shelves or desk or something..... I would display them somewhere But seriously its up to you... I you think its better they stay in the box... then keep them in the box. Made by C.Discord Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regality 233 August 25, 2012 Share August 25, 2012 (edited) I'd leave it closed. Who knows, MLP: FIM could be TV's greatest sensation in the future. ~~ Edited August 25, 2012 by VOODOO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flying Whales 311 August 25, 2012 Share August 25, 2012 Unless you were really, really serious about possibly selling them back at a later date then I’d just go ahead and open them if I were you and display them, I mean it was a gift from your sis and she’d probably like to see them in your room. Plus we can all use ponies lying around in our rooms. Signature Courtesy of Like A Boss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simcity11100 772 August 25, 2012 Share August 25, 2012 I have 17 ponies in boxes that I never opened and and 3 from McDonald's that I opened, overall I don't care what people say, I keep them closed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinkiefan1287 610 August 25, 2012 Share August 25, 2012 For me it would be all about do I have the space to open it. For me I don't have much space so anything I get like an action figure I keep it in the box. I would keep it in the box, because it looks good in the box. Then if u want sell it online.

kirbyboi 588 August 26, 2012 Share August 26, 2012 Well, OPEN THEM! But, before you open them, open the box cleanly and nicely. Let's say you decide you want to sell them, you can put them in the box (with the plastic that holds the toys). But seriously, open them. I play with observe my pony toys all the time. I have opened them, but normally when you see a collector, their usually out of the box or have no box at all. So it doesn't really matter. Enjoy your pony toys! Also, your lucky. I wish I had those figures!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainDash 5 August 26, 2012 Share August 26, 2012 It's going to take 30-50 years before our collectables start showing any real resale value, Unless you plan on staring at the box until 2042, I'd go with opening them 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Princess_Molestia 1,460 August 26, 2012 Share August 26, 2012 do realize this isn't a rare set so even down the road it won't be worth a huge amount of money ponies like derpy on the other hand...
