So my question is, do you rip it out of the packaging, or save it as a collection piece? I seriously have difficulties with these decisions.
:shock:
My take: keep it sealed, and try to hunt down another (sealed or unsealed).
The owl is wise. :D
Minis! Because maxis broke my gaming table.

Personally, I don’t keep nothing in package, I buy stuff to use, not to resell one day, but I understand your point.

This is me also. I don’t buy as an investment. The greatest accomplishment for my purchases is getting them to the game table. I imagine over 50% of my minis have not achieved this. But that is the price of trying to provide the best coverage possible.
Disclamer: I prefer black bases, and as such have painted many clear bases black. Pictures of my collection will reflect this, varying from the original way the mini was produced.

Same. I applaud your efforts.

As for what I bought this week... Prime day was brutally seductive:
-Arcknight Pyramid battlemaps
-Loke town scenery clings
-Clever Paper stable
-Heroscape Jungle grove
-Two Wizkid rams (I'll probably kitbash the second one to something else)

And not from Amazon:
-Bestiary Unleashed case from Miniature Market
-Planescape and Phandelver Limited Edition Boxed Sets (in order to get the Giff promo on dndmini.com)

One of my D&L Caves orders arrived.

At a glance & based on memory (haha) it appears everything is here. I’ll do a more thorough inventory later.
