They look great in the box. But like all Funko products you can easily take it out and display it without damage.

I think out.

Could do a combo of both, some opened, some not.

The Jumping Ghost looks awesome both ways.

I really like how they look in the boxes but i do the same with my pops so...

Also do ghosts really need to jump? If theyre intangible then arent they kinda hovering anyway so why the need to jump? Just hover higher.

You should look the thing up, I finally did, and it's actually quite interesting.

Dont need to. What am i looking up? Do ghosts need to jump? If physics dont apply to ghosts than theres no need to jump or look things up.

I'm having the same dilemma...but I figured, to keep them from hopping away, you need to display them in the box :)

I'll probably take mine out of the box. I do it with just about everything else. Unless it's sealed.

I've got 4 of the TMNT Hikari and I've opened them all. The boxes are cool, especially with the mirrored insides to reflect the colors, but the figures look awesome out of their boxes also. I'm going to try and double up on certain ones so I can display them both ways (and 'cos I like certain colorways so much I want multiples). For now, it's out of the box for me.

Now I'm concerned about the ghost thing. Ever notice that TV ghosts walk through walls and through people, yet they're able to sit solidly on furniture. What's up with that.

As far as box vs no box - I'll have to decide tomorrow when my first Hikarii arrive.

I took my Creature Freddy Hikari out of the bag. The header card wasn't 'mint' when it got to me so I'm not worried about it. Needs to be out to be appreciated anyway.

And it is AWESOME!

Craig, Chinese ghosts are more like zombies and their zombies are more like vampires. You should be okay. Unless your Hikari is coming from China! *gulp*

I don't know why I didn't realize these were hollow till right now. For some reason, I always assumed they were solid. The mailman just delivered my Raph and he was hot and falling out of the packaging, so I opened him up to rearrange him and realized he was hollow (and a little soft from the heat).

Oh man, not that I would do it, but since you brought it up, please, no one try to "bong-ify" one of these. The heat will melt them in your hands.

All of mine are out. Plus you have to know your number and once you open the box you can actually hear their muffled screams to be set free, so they wind up out of box lol.
