      @Krusher, that's why I have two collections. One for archiving and one for playing.
      If you paid $4000 for a boxed Zorro, would you really tear the box and stick the figure in a pocket on a morning jog!?? Didn't think so.

          You are right man..got me there....I would NOT tear him out and go for a jog!

          ...I'd tear him open and have him swordfighting with the Azrak Wolfman!

          Personally, there is no way in green HELL that I would pay $4000 for ANY toy - Thats a down payment on a HOUSE!

          Cat - Sounds like Pokemon! I wish that ALL of the 8" lines came in the window boxes...I love that packaging and its very 'user friendly'. Werent they only held shut by a sliver of clear tape?

          I do have one small regret, was probably foolish of me - I opened a carded ScareGlow about 8 years ago....ah well...But he was SO cool - he smelled awesome and GLOWED like the moon!!

              COnsidering what I put them thru as a kid, free-standing on a shelf, out of the sun, and in a dry environment is a luxury. I bought a bunch of plastic cylinder type cases and they work pretty well.

              These are probably more economical.

              I'm also trying to buy replacement boxes or clam shells with repro cards, but that is slow going.
