    Good to see another well rounded collection. For the most part I only keep my vintage items mint in packaging. In the past I have kept a lot of figures mint in packaging that are locked away in storage free from sunlight and humidity. It's only when I have had to check back years later to see some of those collectibles end up with "figure rot". No matter how much you intend on looking after these figures they still only have a shelf life. Not every figure you buy will be valuable, not even in the future. I stopped buying multiples of the same figure long ago. I might do it for an exceptional figure, but I am not investing into collectibles to sell in the future. I would much rather put that money into other figures or just keep my money for more useful things in life. I have never needed to "army build" with toy lines or collect every single figure that comes out. I just collect figures that appeal to me. It's good when you can buy what you want online. It is also satisfying collecting those hard earned items from faraway places like travelling interstate or overseas.

    Do you ever take out your figures to display? You seem to want to show each unpackaged figure you purchase on a daily basis. I buy figures that I know that I can display. Keeping figures/toys unpackaged does not mean that they will keep there value. It just means you will have a bunch of unused items. Some things are worth keeping mint in packaging. Most items should be unboxed. If you were selling off items it would depend on the buyer on how much they were interested/value the item they want to collect. I have made good money from selling items without the need of packaging. I don't bother keeping most of my boxes for Hot Toys, Macross, Transformers or figures that are priced under $100. I like the way emgo316 unboxes his figures by showing the packaging and then throwing the package away to the side with the quip "That's basically it for packaging!" https://www.youtube.com/@emgo316 Language warning for That Plastic Crack Is Add!cting

    The joints are good for the most part. I guess in time the friction joints will loosen up and not become serviceable. 😥 The only thing I don't like is the way the sword/rifles attach to the hip. They can be knocked off easily. I also never bothered to put the beam swords on the back of the figure.

    I like this figure with the battle damaged look and have my mind set on getting it. Also there is the Return of the Jedi version coming out. Not sure if I get both. Just good options if one is less desirable than the other. Here is comparing apples with oranges. https://www.sideshow.com/collectibles/star-wars-darth-vader-return-of-the-jedi-40th-anniversary-collection-hot-toys-912232?var=9122322

    The KC Dana figure looks great against the two models shown. Bowie is oversized for sure. Really liking the KC Dana figure in armor the more I see it. 🤩

    It would of been nice to see these companies implement the "Battle Mode" feature. I don't own the Eaglemoss version of the Arkham Knight Batmobile. It is semi-transformed revealing the gun turret. Really nice detail on this vehicle. The other two Arkham Knight Batmobiles that I know of which have the "Battle Mode" feature I never bothered with. We need an updated version which can change into the Battle Mode with lights and sounds. The Batman Arkham Knight DC Comics Multiverse Batmobile SDCC 2014 Exclusive does a really good job at implementing the Battle Mode or Tank Mode feature including lights and sounds. The downside is that it is an exclusive to that time and the proportions are wrong. The more premium version of the Arkham Knight Batmobile looked great and did change into the Battle Mode convincingly. It was let down due to being permanently fixed to the display stand. Also the removeable panels would fall off easily and you would have to attach some of the weapons.

    Great to see the Dana Sterling figure/s after all this time. 🤩 I don't mind the mesh suit. The armor is just glued on to the fabric bodysuit, and not very securely; this immediately fell off as I tried to move the arm. I would hate to glue that piece back on. 😔 There has to be a better way to attach the armor. I wonder if a loop of black elastic could be fixed to the armor and just worn around the upper arm. I am still eagerly awaiting my pre-order from BBTS after seeing all these photos.
