I buy one only for my collection. If I’m helping out a friend, I’ll buy two

I wish I had the money to do that too, there are some really cool looking pops that's just need to be showcased.

I buy minis so I don’t have the urge to open pops. I like that these stack so well. I have been tempted to take them out.

ugh.. the feels, especially Disney Store Pops! (back in the day), haha! ](*,)

the ode joy memories... 8-[

but to answer the question, it really depends on which Pop! it is? I mean, no I won't open it, but I will use it as to help a fellow collector if I need to buy 2. But it sure gets costly rather fast when you need to spot someone.

I'd say there are times where I wish I had. In certain cases, I did. One boxed for home, and one opened for my desk at work. . . . but those cases are few and far between.

If it’s my favorite character, I will buy 2, one to display. And I do this quite a bit with my Marvel pops. Especially the Infinity War line.
