Collector Preference Question?

[Sowth]

Definitely Card 1 in the GA example, a figure with an opened card is just a loose figure in terms of value to me.

The only exception I can think of to that rule would be ultra-rare pieces simply not available for love nor money on card, such as the Aussie WW card. Other than that, give me sealed or give me death!

Cheers!

Will, you took the thoughts out of my head. Sealed trumps open 100% of the time. I would take a C4 sealed figure with gray head over an open carded figure.

My #1 criterion for carded figures is factory sealed.

[EMCE Hammer]

For me, it depends. If somebody did a super clean job popping the GA out, I'd go with the open card and have it restored/resealed. Zombie heads and broken limbs on a sealed card just ruin it for me.

open cards aren't worth anything though, are they? Unless were talking WW,IM,GG etc.
So would defo buy a nice figure on open card for for the right price.

I'd go with the nicer card w/ gray head. Zombie heads don't bother me too much, think of it as part of Mego's "charm?" Besides, who knows with the cheap material Mego used, all your nice fleshy megos may be gray in 5 years!
