I have been collecting for about 19 yrs.In all the time Ive been around the hobby it is always better to have them in the box. Once I saw an empty box for a toy tractor go for more than the tractor would have without the box.As to would it harm the value if you took off the upc label? Depends,if the toy is just a collector model it is only going to appreciate so much anyway. Special editions and precisions ,may make me reconcider if I was to keep them whole.But as in any market nothing is worth more than someone will pay, and if its something they want what is a small hole in the box. But when it comes down to it. If your doing it for investment purposes then you are in the wrong thing. Toys are made to enjoy, to make you happy.If taking off the labels to get another toy makes you happy,cut away friend and to heck with anyone who says different.After being in the hobby this long Ive seen a $10 toy appreciate to $200.But months later be worth $10 again. Toys are for fun not futures.
