If I were you, I'd ask myself how I would prefer to display the figure. Some people like displaying certain figures inside their packaging. I am not one of them.

well the bag is just a plastic bag with no header or anything and it looks all beat up and shit. Also I just found these cool plastic cube containers that they fit in perfect!!!!!! it is just to hard to decide!!!!!!

When I take a Japanese figure out of its bag it usually means I will never sell them. I took my proto mantis out, Frank and Brian took their red Balzac bagmen w/ megaphone out.
I just bought a purple pollard blank that was out of the bag and I never once thought about its value in terms of it being MIB or not. Figures like yours do not lose any value when you take them out of the bag. If you want to protect it buy a jewel case, but for god’s sake take it out of the bag.

That case and figure combo are made for each other. Makes the figure look like a specimen or caged. Suits it's pose so well.
Definitely open the yellow guy. I feel your uncertainty though. Can be a tough decision.

It might be better to look at without the line running through the top of it. Just a thought.

I suggest you flip the cases upside down.
