I have a few figures in my collection that I have MOC that I sort of wanna open. 1. to open up more space. and 2. Because I want to get a better, more detailed look at them.
I have: -Royal Rumble CM Punk -All Stars CM Punk vs Steve Austin -CM Punk vs Macho Man -Daniel Bryan WM Heritage -Daniel Bryan best of 2012 -Daniel Bryan basic 11
Should I open any of them?
If not, can someone tell me how much they're worth?

Mattel figures aren't going to be worth much moc vs loose except for a rare few...I'd say if you want to open them just open them....you only live once you might as well enjoy them instead of sitting on them for years hoping they'll gain value....just my 2 cents

Keep the All Stars MOC in the package and open the rest! I'm having the same dilemma with a couple figures I was given but they're not super rare so I'll prolly open them up myself! I say give them a go and have some fun!

I'd buy the Punk/Austin pack off you right now, haha.
I'm a loose collector though, so I always say open them. The fact with the Mattel line right now is that figures are keeping their value MOC or loose, just because packs like that or some of the Elite characters got small production runs.

I don't want to open them, and in like a few years have the moc be worth a lot more than the loose.

All Stars is the only one I'd keep MOC out of those.

If you bought them just to sell on, then keep them MOC, although most of them aren't particularly rare so I don't know how much you'd ever get for them. If you bought them to play with or display, then open 'em.

you Shouldn't buy figure because of the value mattel could end making them. then some new company start making figures that blow mattels out of the water buy cos you in joy them get them open if you are itching to. they look good in a glass cabinet and also in boxers on wall remember you could drop dead tomorrow

It's not like your going to be able to pay for your kids college with them. Just open them That's just it right there. You might stand to make some okay cash on these figures but I'll give you some perspective. A desirable figure is almost as desirable loose as it is in package. Elite 6 Batista seems to typically go for $80-$90 in the package, and I sold a loose one that I owned for $67.99. Not much of a difference, is there? And none of those sets go as high. In general, Mattel may be riding a crest with their values, but it will crash, so if you're looking for value, sell high, and don't be stuck with them when it crashes. But you don't seem to want to be rid of them, so don't sweat it. Remember, Death of Superman in the 90's used to be a top value book. Now they're $10 if they're sealed and in sharp shape, and fifty cents to a dollar opened at just about every comic shop I've been to. And the new movie may give a little bump if they mention Doomsday after the credits, or even just because, but that'll go away quick. Bane breaking Batman's back went from a common $4 book to a $30 one to capitalize on the last movie and that lasted about a week. Go look at Jakks values for figures to see more examples. EDIT: What is everyone who has no clue what they are buying collecting right now at premiums for value that won't exist at the price they are paying a few scant years from now? Walking Dead comics. Don't fall into that trap. Wrestling figures don't have the same value, because they always make more and more and more and more, and have so many repaints. Remember, the key factor on value is age, desirability and easily broken or misplaced pieces that drive toy values. I also think the Hasbro early Marvel Legends bubble is going to burst and figure like Crossbones, Black Widow and Winter Soldier will drop just like the ToyBiz ones are.

So I opened all my CM Punk and Daniel Bryan figures, mostly because this comment. It's not like your going to be able to pay for your kids college with them. Just open them He's right, it's not something that's going to MAKE or BREAK me. And plus, I'm not even interested in selling my CM Punks or Daniel Bryans. Those two are "my guys".
