HAHA... I know a few of these people. OOB, but when it comes time to sell, they try to get in box value even though the Pop has been sitting out on a shelf, collecting dust and getting sun damage. :roflmao:

You miss so much detail by leaving them in the box. But OOB takes up so much more room. We have all our pops displayed but then tons of bins full of empty boxes. I wish they would make the boxes able to be broken down for storage.
Gotta love those pops :freddy2:

98% of my pops are in box but any that the boxes are really bad those come out of their boxes. But I find it easier to stack and display in box

Some pops NEED to be displayed out of box. Gear 4th Luffy from Chalice Collectibles have so much detail that its begging to be OOB. Some pops however feel better in their colorful or eye catching box. The Dr Strange chase from the Multiverse of Madness comes to mind. Then again, those eyes look awesome oob as well.

Pops definitely look better out of box. However I keep most of mine in box because I like to trade or sell on occasion. Some boxes look pretty cool too.

I am a bit of both. I tend to keep pops in the box. But if the box is damaged and I like the mold I will have it OOB. I have a bunch of OOB pops around the house.

I'm a mix of both. In box for some and out of box for others. It's true that so many details are missed if the pops are only left in the box.

I take most of them out but display the box behind it. It's nice seeing both the box and the Pop itself!

Billy Bookcases from Ikea are the way to go for my display style, definitely requires some wall space though haha

80% in the box, but if by chance we have doubles it’ll be part of an oob display.

Most of mine are oob just because I love actually being able to see them a little better and see all the details. There are a lot that I have that are in box just because of the value of them. The ones I display oob, are standing right in front of their box, which I think looks really good

I really enjoy seeing people unbox and peoples' unboxing OOB collections, but I'm somebody who 100% is an in-box collector.
I do have a couple protos that, of course, are out of box. And my Sodas are out of can, but I think it's just easier to stack the boxes and keep those pristine than open all the boxes and build so many shelves-

In Box is the right way to collect if you're looking to get some value out of your collection at some point.
If you really like a pop and want it OOB buy a second one like the rest of us lol
