So, if you have every figure of the line -and i mean every single one, even the international and all- but they're not AFA graded, is not really a collection?
C'mon.
You're just looking for an excuse to justify the money you spent* on your precioussss.
It is okay to have them encased. They're your toys.
personally, i prefer to open them. I buy some of them for the memories, and my memories as a child don't include a toy i can't even touch. If they were intended to be like that, they won't have detachable gear, articulations or even sculpted details.
But again, to each his own.
*(note: i said
spent
, not
wasted
. I'm not against people wanting their toys AFAd, it's their business after all)
