I too keep one MOC and one to open, so the only variant/rare figure I ever had the fortune of opening is a Black Head Destro.
My area tends to not get initial releases where the variants are often found. So, it's keep 'em on the card to admire if I ever find 'em.

I opened up a Black Head Destro and used him for custom fodder.
I like to play with these things, if i had a super valuable figure like a yellow stalker or something like that i'd sell it to someone who would appreciate it better than me. I'm a hardcore opener, i only buy stuff to open. |

98% of my 25th Joe Purchases have gone unopened. I only open the comic packs if I buy 2 of them so I can read the comic
I think the Joes look cooler MOC |

I have 3 of the 4 Doc variants, the only one that's loose is the one the post office opened (then mangled, folded, and crushed) for me. I opened only the comic 2-packs to get Doc stickers for my brother and myself. I have several variants, but won't open any of them. I have all my stuff from the 80's, so I don"t need any to play with.

A toy not played with is a toy unloved.

Word.
I was lucky enough to find w1 Officer and w2 Trooper at Target today. I left them MOC for about 3 hours before I sliced the bubbles. I open everything. If you ever get the chance to open a variant and you haven't, I highly recommend it. It's a wonderful feeling. I was in heaven when I opened my Black Head Destro. |

What was the point of the original post? Are we supposed to think you are "super-bad" because you open HTF figures that others pay through the nose for? are you supposed to be exhaulted and admired? I don't get it... If you just genuinely open because you display that way, then cool. Most people do anyway, I can understand that. If you had a yellow STALKLER you would open it? why? just to say you did? what is the point? open the regular version. People that brag about how cool they are because they open rare variants bore me. Last edited by QBERT; 01-10-2009 at 12:09 AM.. |
