So I have a large collection of Lalaloopsy mini dolls in boxes. They are taking up way too much space and have grown out of the box I have them in. So I am thinking of unboxing them although they are nice to display in the box. Should I go ahead and unbox them to save space? I already have a few I found loose.
-
Personally I love mine MIB, and I know I would completely regret it if I opened mine, because they display so nicely and I just don't like the feel of the dolls in hand. Better to look at than to handle, imo. But if you already have loose ones and still enjoy them, I can't see why not!
-
I only have a few, but I debox mine because I like to just sit them around on shelves, and use them as dolls for my bigger dolls. Plus, I just like to debox things, lol. I don't have a whole lot of shelf space, and dolls on stands/sitting around take up less room than everyone in boxes.
I agree that if you have some loose ones and you enjoy those, then go for it.
-
You can open the box carefully, remove the doll and keep the box. I've done that with several. It's easy to put them back in. Just don't sell them as mint in box or anything. :P But honestly, if I was looking I would take a loose doll with her box over a doll without.

I like to debox the ones that have their own cardboard house! However, I keep the ones who come on a card in their package.
-
Okay I'm going to unbox them this afternoon! I bought some little bags to put the dolls & accessories in. I will not be keeping the cardboard houses though so I'm gonna need a big trash bag lol.
-
I like the cardboard houses it gives me someplace to display them. You could always tack the houses to the wall and have them sit in them like a shelf?
I like setting them up in little scenes where they can sit and hold hands while their pets eat their food or something.
-
When I first started collecting I deboxed mine just beacuse I wanted to hold them. I still have thair boxes and pop em back in there. Now I keep mine mint for the most part, the large ones mostly.
-
So I deboxed most of them. I only kept the holiday exclusives in the boxes which I think was a good compromise. Now I have a huge empty box to put something else in!
-
I've deboxed all of mine and I do not regret it lol. They all fit nicely in a gallon bag instead of a big box. I can pull them out and look at them easily. I don't have the boxes either :P
