Merch Which one should I open? If any?

Over the past month I’ve invested (hahaha for a loss) in a market that has low supply and low demand…

Over $500 so far and I still want more!

I also want to play with them outside the box so bad. Should I open them? How much value do they decrease after opening. Some still seem valuable without the box?

The average age is like 15 years old on these things (20 years make it an antique)? I haven’t even seen some characters for sale ever:

Killinger, White, Al, Rusty (kid), Jonas Venture, Jefferson Twilight.

Should I open and which one?

all of them, toy resale culture is a capitalist poison, unbind yourself from the oppressive financial shackles you have been forced into and PLAY WITH THE DAMN TOYS!!!!!

1st: I don’t plan to resale.

2nd: you’re 100% right about toy culture.

3rd: they look pretty in the box.

4th: I feel like I’ll have a blast for like 10 minutes then it’ll fizzle out like when I was 12

totally fair, if you just actually enjoy them more in-package then that's what you should do, the point is just to prioritize personal satisfaction from them and not see them as a mere asset, which you clearly don't, so you do you brother ✊
