Depending on what it is I open it. When I started collecting Batman figures I said to myself "Do I plan on keeping these forever or selling them? So I save more room opening them or not?" It was a lot easier to display them opened, I had no wall space left to hang them, and I knew I wasn't just gonna sell them later. I bought them because I wanted them. So I opened them. I keep what I have doubles of packaged obviously, and sometimes I buy doubles on purpose, but other then that everything I have gets opened.

Unless you plan on re-selling I'd open them. If the toy is super rare and worth something then maybe hold off but with how everything is mostly overproduced now a days rare items are far and few between.
