You can't really compare collecting new MOC stuff to the old stuff. A LOT more people are keeping stuff MOC these days thinking the same thing you are, but they will never be as scarce as sealed stuff from when virtually no one was doing it.

Nice! Thanks for the replies guys! I'm glad to hear alot of you prefer to open and play with it because sometimes...I think because of my age (28), action figures ought to be a collection or for display, and silly to be played with. But since alot of you guys seem to enjoy to play with it, I guess I'm not alone. I feel much better now.
But other than that, do you genuinely like action figures or just buy it for the sake of selling it for like a price that's times 5 for the next years to come? I genuinely love action figures, since I didn't get much of it when I was a kid. Thinking of selling it for a rip off price, to be honest, didn't even cross my mind. |

I have said before and now I will say it again " a toy unplayed with is a toy unloved".

Open em, duh! It is our job to save them from their plastic-cardboard imprisonment.

BOTH! Couldn't vote because it's 50/50 really. The silver foiled 25th stuff I haven't opened for the most part but I don't consider myself a collector like some of you guys/gals.
What's kind of irking me is the ROC stuff. I really didn't like the cards when I initially saw them on the internet. Then when I had them in hand I kind of liked them all sealed up, EXCEPT for the GIGANTOR launchers of course. I've opened Shipwreck so far (needed one for my loose Joes and for my collection overall as I never bought the 25th one) and I'm keeping the others sealed for right now for that TRU sale that is coming up so that I can return them for a refund if I find them there. Regarding why MOC for me? I like the look. I'm definitely not keeping them that way for resale. IMO, they aren't going to be worth much more, if not less, than what we paid for them. |
