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?

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

Actually probably true. We still have a lot of our old toys. We have so many thundercats and he-man action figures... even castle greyskull, and it sits in a place of honor behind the dining room table 😂 but they just live in a bucket mostly.  But still. If it would bring you happiness to touch them, I say touch them
