[@Sean360Lennox]

My question to you would be... What's worth more... The box without the Pop.. Or the Pop without the box? 🤔

[@SkittleRampage]

@@Sean360Lennox The Pop itself is worth more.

[@Sean360Lennox]

@@SkittleRampage TBH sometimes I wonder lol... Cuz some of the boxes do look cool. Now if they had some sort of material feeling to them that'd be awesome... Lol or if the box glowed too haha. But lol I've put all my pops back in the Box just to see if I like that better...

[@gamerdot1yt269]

I think at the top you should put the 4 kuramas

[@childishtrouble7657]

SkittleRampage for outta box collectors I think Funko should make like a playing card size picture of the pop, it ships with the box or inside the pops box, and it can be like a plastic card and have the stickers on the back for the exclusive place it’s at or for the variant of chase, or if it glows, so outta box collectors can keep them out and it can also have value since they don’t have to keep so much space for the box if They NEED to have space

[@stevecollections382]

Out of box collector here. I do keep the box in storage. I like it out of box to appreciate the figure more any given time I can grab it and look at it.

[@nihilisticweirdo944]

I 100% agree with you. I keep all the boxes but display them out of box. I want my collections to represent me not just hoarding them in box for profit. I don’t collect to make money I collect cuz it’s what I like. (I collect funko, lego, marvel legends, blu rays, dvds, comics, cds and vinyls....) that being said I like to show it all off on my bookcase I think collecting for yourself is more important than money making.

[@stevecollections382]

My secret is... I keep the box... Have them signed... And leave my figure out of box. N put my boxes in storage. I'd just rather my place where I store my stuff not look like A Hot Topic display case... Plus I can use LEDs on the places where I'm going to eventually have all mines lined up

Ive always felt like the box itself is the display, im super o.c.d and i prefer keeping them in box because they line up perfectly with eachother. Its nice and neat and symmetrical. Tho there are a few tht i have doubles of because the figures are just so cool, the leshen from witcher 3 specifically

Thank you for making this video, SkittleRampage! I was always wondering what to do for a long time. I came to her choice and I’m keeping them out of the box. Thanks again!

[@Sean360Lennox]

No one is better.. but it's just my opinion to keep mines out of box.

[@Lanosrep]

I don't care at all about value, but I do like the boxes. If I go into financial troubles, I can just but them back in the box, and it's as good as new and worth at least what I bought it for. The middle ground for me is turning the box to the side where the character artwork is, and putting the figure in front. You can even stagger them upwards like a staircase by just finding a shoebox that's the right size, putting the nebxt row of boxes on that, and then putting the figures on top of the first row

[@JB-ou6fl]

I also like to display the boxes to the side where the character artwork is located. That's why I like Funkos, there are so many different display options. Right now I''ve displayed some of my out of box pops on top of their boxes showing the artwork so I can see both.

[@sandrawalkes3588]

I have pops out of box because I personally prefer them that way. I like to look at them outside of the package. The pops in box I have no where to display them yet.The problem I do have is where to store all the empty boxes! In those circumstances, I begin to think; in box is better.

[@superwolf213]

I think I prefer in the box for the pops I love the detail of the box as much as the pop itself and its easier to stack them if you use shelfs or other displays when your collection grows

[@whatthedeuce2306]

I'm with you man, it's really personal preference. I display both in and out of box. If I find a deal on a cool pop I want and the box is thrashed it's an out of box piece. The rest stay in box, mostly. Thanks for your thoughts on this. Cheers. Stay frosty!

[@jex237]

I keep mine in the box i only opened it if i want to take pictures of it after i'm done taking it i put it back in the box. My Funko Pops are my kids! I take care of it and also the box is a big deal to me especially now my Funko Pop! Yugioh Dark Magician Hot Topic Exclusive the price went high! so happy!

[@shadowflashpops]

Well I prefer how they look out of box however I agree the box art on the side is awesome so I actually keep the pop outside the box and the box is right behind it showing the art.

[@thatonefrog3178]

I usually display them in boxes, but sometimes I just choose a few to take out of the box to display them when I feel like changing things up. Then when I want to change which ones I want out, I put the current ones back in the box and display them like that again.

[@joeblazey048]

what if im just a casual collector? i only have 10 pops. i love the box but i feel like it takes up a lot of space.

[@Ali-wz9op]

I just started collecting funkos and I have to display them outside of box because I want people to see all the details . I do keep the box in a very safe place and in perfect condition . Hopefully that helps to retain value if I ever want to sell .

[@TailsPrower07]

In box for me, it keeps the figures in safe condition (even though I don't intend to sell), not as easy to lose/misplace, no instance (or less likely) to have it fall of the shelf and your dog to have a new chew toy, easier to stack, I honestly like how the boxes look, and in a weird way I enjoy holding them and like the feel of holding the box

[@crispybacon-1663]

I have been slowly buying Star Wars funko pops, I have always collected out of the box and never intended to sell. The question came up when I bought a Dipper and Mabel funko pop. I just like to look at them.

[@jsp5533]

I have my chase and expensive exclusives in the box and keep everything outside. Then I use the boxes as a background to stack them

[@epoc6643]

I’m sort of both and sometimes I’ll take the figure out and use the box as backgrounds for it and figures related with it

[@rimarielancaster9455]

I keep my favorite looking ones out of box in a display case and I keep the boxes on my in box display case and I switch out which ones are in the display case and which ones are in the box monthly

[@crispnuggie]

there’s some I haven’t open and I feel like I should keep it like that. great video btw love it

[@JB-ou6fl]

I do both but I prefer to collect out of the box to see the details and save on display space. If the pop has a nice sticker (the Pop in a Box sticker is my favorite), is expensive, or looks nice inside the box, I'll display it inside the box. If I really like the pop and it's a common that I can get for cheap, I will consider buying two to do both.

[@N8dog97ttv]

I have a small collection (30+). So I like to stack my pops and keep them in the box. I only get ones that I like either design or the series that it's from.

When I first started collecting funko pop with jack I kept him in box then I collect even more I open them to look at the details but now with my second collection of funko pops there all in box.

I have a pop that should be coming in August, and it'll be my first one. I have other kinds of figures, but I have them out of the box, but I do keep the boxes in my closet where they won't get smashed. I have an empty shelf just for the pop that's coming, I'm definitely gonna keep the box because the funko pop boxes always look so cool 👏

[@iMerkCODM]

I only take my pops out if my box comes damaged & I don’t want deal with the return/replacement process. I feel like the whole point is to keep it unopened. But in the end that’s what makes me happy. If you open yours, all the power to you

[@Gameryukii]

I mainly keep my collection in box but if i feel they look better out of box, I take them out of the box. I never throw away the box tho. Still No one should shame others just for how they keep their collection, it’s their money and their collection .

[@souichi7910]

I agree with you, I have never taken mines out the box I’m kinda eh about it but seeing people’s displays makes we want to but obviously keep the box’s

[@stephenraeburn3263]

I’ve watched so many collectors series come and go over the years that I know it’s all a hustle. If you’re planning on selling them because of value, do it now!!! I’ve got closets filled with beanie babies, Disney vinylmations, and happy meal toys worth only pennies on the dollar they were once valued at. For this reason I unbox. These are my toys, I’m not reselling

just get six of each one. One in box for collecting one to sell of in box one just incase the in box one gets ruined, one out of box one to sell out of box and another one out of box to sell later on.

[@Mocka-yf4ez]

for me is amazing pops out of the box in a entire designed shleves with not directed neon lights, so so amazing you can see al pop details, but if you want to sell them in the future, maybe it's important to keep thier boxes, in my case I'll never sell my pops XD

I'm just starting to collect some, they look better out of box, but at the same time they look good inside their boxes, and the boxes have different colors and theme.

[@jongobongo695]

I just collect outside the box, but display the pops with their respective boxes

[@ecolodic]

What I do is take out the pops I love for display (mostly big ones) and put the figures on a shelf as well as the boxes on a seperate one with the box sideways so that it shows the full pic of the pop.if it's autographed then is the only time I'll 100% keep it in a box. The pop itself isn't rlly the value most times, everyone for some reason cares for boxes more. Though it is important to keep your pops good condition.

[@dinoduckling2662]

I think the boxes are cool too but it means you don't get to see the whole figurine for example the mayor of the nightmare before Christmas funko pop has a whole other face that's you can't see if you keep him in the box (you can't even see the other face in the box art) and most people don't buy funko pops for selling they buy it because they like it but I do understand in the box it's easy to stack and the box is cool

[@jeromeaddict]

I keep my figures out of box but make sure to hold onto the boxes in storage. If I ever decided to sell these or trade them or something one day.... do this make them lose value?

[@josephfauteux6383]

I keep all my funko pops in the box to keep them clean and fresh with no dust and enjoy the boxes are cool too as like you

[@EthanAnania]

I like Funko Pops better in the box and not to unbox them because there’s one time I saw my old Bob Ross Funko Pop that I got back in 2018 and then one of my former dogs have chewed on them. That’s why I prefer to keep Funko Pops better in the boxes.

[@russianbatman1982]

Honestly , as you said when a pop doesn't have a box or the box is damaged that's like 70% of it's value is gone , and that's why i'm a out of box collector , because i can get figures like the new Tatsumaki funko pop for only six dollars because the box is roughed up .
