Opening the package w/o damaging it

Post by Rem »

On the Mezco site it said something about how clamshell packaging allows you to open it up without damaging the box. is this at all possible? Because I'm not too keen on buying a whole other set.

i'm not sure where you saw that... Clamshell packaging is often referred to as "Collector Friendly" because there's no card-backs to damage, not because they can be opened and resealed... i don't know of any clamshell packaging that can...

I'm in the UK and Forbidden Planet have sent my Ajax figure! I think there must be some on the way.

i have really thought about investing into the furies....dirty or clean

but the thing is, i would want to diplay them,. what do you guys really think the chances of them being worth alot of $ in the future is? i mean i guess anything would rise in value if it was from 2005 and it was 2095 or whenever but....i mean really....

Well I actually just opened the four I have (Swan, Cleon, Cochise, Luther) and have them displayed now in my room. And I have to tell you....it's awesome. I realized that I'll never sell these things, and it's like having a car and not driving it. But it's totally worth it.

I'll drop by my local Suncoast tomorrow to see if they have a Fury or two.

Can't wait to open up Ajax just so I can put him in that fighting stance he does right before he bops the Furies' leader.

If you get a blue fury, definitely leave that in the box since they are a limited edition of about 200, and maybe keep the Ajax one wrapped too.

The original 5 figures will probably be quite common.

I live in No. California...I've never heard of Suncoast...What kind of store is it...are there more of them in Ca...I'd rather go to a store than get them thru ebay...which is where I got Ajax and Cleon...I'm waiting for Cleon...

Hey Lizzy. Suncoast is a DVD and video store. They also sell lots of movie themed products. They are found mainly in malls. I'm pretty sure there are some in northern CA.

204 were sold to the public. 1 was used as a display piece at the cons, but that one resides on my desk now ;)
