In the box, or out on display? What if it's a gift?

Out on display, I put 'em in a glass shelf cause tha box just takes a lot of space.

If you're worried about boxes taking up space but want to save them, one can always just unfold/unglue the cardboard and have it lie flat to be stored.
I do that with any sort of packaging I find unique, too.

Even though I take them out, I'm REALLY OCD about keeping them clean; ever time I touch my Last Exile limited edition set, I just nuke it with a silk cloth, as for my figurines, I switch between in and out since they are all display cases.

I keep them on display in a glass case.
The boxes stay in my closet.

Out.
...
So I can play with them.

If I had a veritable warehouse in which I could display a horde of boxes, I might well do so, but I couldn't otherwise stand to keep these treasures locked away and out of sight. I have no plans to ever sell them - they aren't going to gain much value where I live - and they are there to look nice and to be looked at. :)

Always take out but keep the boxs. So far I only have Bakemonogatari figurines and Nendoroids but their boxes remain close by. A part of me wants to keep it in the box, but I like to get them out and hold it, look at it and display it proudly like the nerd I am.

However if I had a lot of money to spend I'd buy two of the same thing, one for display and one to never be opened, my plans for winning the lottery have clearly already been done <3

I display the ones that I like or feel that go well with the current deco, these are dusted and cleaned weekly. The rest are boxed and stored.

I take them out of their Boxes. I just think they look so much better without the Package wraped around them. However i will buy a Glas Vitrine shortly to provide them a safer Environment (and to keep me from constant Dustcleaning).

i take em out the box. let em breath, play with them i show them some love!!!

Display and used.
I know why people keep them in the box....
but i'm not one of them people

Finally i bought myself a showcase.



I`m very pleased with the Light. Only thing left now is to fill it up with Figurines ^^

Jealous. I don't have a display case T.T

I have my figures out on display on my desk. I do keep all the boxes though.

Mine are all out on display in a display case. I also maintain them regularly so they won't be dusty^^.

I keep them in the box since I can't find a decent display case thats dust resistant. I'll only display it IF its under 15$ or made in china. ChinaSaber.jpeg

I have all of them on display, i did keep the orignial box, in case i might have to sell some (when i should get in money problems).

I reckon you should add some lights at the bottom to shine up it seems the fig isn't evenly lit Imo.

Otherwise great stuff getting the case how much it set you back?

display case and out of box <3 but its a hassle to clean em ~.~ so mabye im thinking i should have kept em in the box

I put them inside the box, because they're so distracting for me......=_=
If I look at them, I would play with them for the next 5 hours without realizing it.
Here I'm talking about Gunpla, of course.

All the ones I have aren't anything special, so they're all out out of the box on on the shelf, with planes, motorcycles, and other stuff.

(Although I do have a Hot Wheels car still in the original box. Supposedly a "collectors" piece >_>)
