Should I take my Mighty Muggs figures out of the box?

Question

I want to display them out of the box, but I'm worried opening them will decrease their value in the future should they become collectibles.

Answer 1

So many collectors are saving them that they won't increase like classic toys

*The reason older toys are collectible and valuable is because they were played with and very few were kept in mint condition.   Everybody these days is saving  Star Wars, Transformers, Batman, etc so they will not have the same increase in value*

**You want to buy toys that will be collectible in the future?  Go buy whatever kids are playing with these days (Ben10, Spider-man toys geared for little kids, anime flavor of the week toys, etc.)  Save it and wait for 20 years for those kids to grow up, get nostalgic and have money**

Answer 2

Weigh the pros and cons.. what do you REALLY want to do more keep them in a box to make some cash or show them off?

Or you can always do what I do.. I save up and if I want one to keep and one to show.. I buy two.

But if you ask me I say open them - they are super cute and besides toys are meant to be played with!
