So you are really lucky lol cause if it was a second hand, I'm pretty sure that it's the real Factory-X but with a Genki box (:

Nice collection Marlie! Have you allready tryed a hairdryer to remove the stickers from the boxes? I figured when heating up the stickers a bit its easier to remove.

^Good choice! I recommend cutting out the cards on the boxes, I have done that and have them all in a binder!

^Good choice! I recommend cutting out the cards on the boxes, I have done that and have them all in a binder! Wouldn't that be redundant? Like for example you have the willow collection and you kept all their cards. I mean the card itself is the same for all the figures except the plastic sticker on the outer packaging. I leave all my stuff MOC cause I am a collector. Not that I don't like a loose figure here and there for display. But I guess that's what customs are for.

^I meant the plastic sticker on the front. And I open my figures...so does that mean I am not a collector?

It just means that you're a different type of collector for example you collect loose figures...now that you opened them. They are now considered loose figures and no longer mint on card. They would be down graded to like new if you use they for display only.
Too bad the earlier versions didn't have the one's with pictures or the later Deluxe figures. Do you have a complete set yet?

Oh ok. and no not yet. I am missing a few figures here and there. But in no rush yet. I haven't added a new figure to my collection in a while. It's been on pause seeing that i've been buying statues, prop replicas, and customs lately which a very pricey causing that part of my collection to be on hold for the time being.

Once More With Feeling Dawn is going to be a pain in the butt to get at a good price, but someone on eBay snubbed me at getting the pair of Lesson Dawn and OMWF Dawn. That pair sold at a real good price. Same with Triangle Tara and Life of the Party Lorne. Those are some heavy hitters.

^thanks! I just love those on the package, and I figured if I was opening them I still want to keep those!! I also have them in the Buffy Ultimate Collection binder....which I thought fit well. lol.

I have also kept the stickers from the front of the boxes I have opened but never thought to display them like that PJ, such a cool idea!! I only open the common DST figures, kept the others (eg signed Triangle Tara, signed Initiative Xander etc) and all MAC in their boxes. Although saying that I think I have most twice, boxed and loose lol I don't buy much now as it is getting harder and harder to find things I don't have but sometimes come across things even I don't own lol I guess that's what happens when you have been collecting so long!!

Wow, I didn't realise that urn of Osiris was one of Wayne's, did the pamphlet come with it? I'm jealous of you both! I'm desperate for a scythe ( at the right price!) I'm loving your new props Hansi. How are you going to display them?
