Or, in other words, what is your collectible opening ritual?
I tend to order most of my collectibles online and get them delivered to me at work via UPS. I have found lately, especially now that I am maxed out on display space, that it is not urgent I open each figure I receive as soon as it arrives. In fact, this wait on my own terms enhances the feeling I get when I eventually do open up the box. It's my choice now, not the delivery guy, nor the manufacturer, in terms of when it arrives on my display shelf. I have also found it is satisfying to know that I have an inventory of unopened figures that will be perfectly fine until I am ready for them.
How about you?
