I keep my boxes under the assumption that I'm going to have to move someday and I'm deathly afraid of packing these statues by hand and damaging them. I keep my boxes either in a closet or in the garage and I'm okay with that (for now).

I've kept all my boxes under plastic in the attic and it's beyond ridiculous how many there are, and how much space it takes up.

Even if I did want to sell something it would take me three days to find it's box. lol

The one and only time I got negative Ebay feedback was because I couldn't find a box and had to cancel the sale. Never again

The refrigerator-size boxes are the worst.
I immediately got rid of the three 1:3 Predator boxes and also from two other large statues.

Also tried to keep a few in my (cold) basement but they developed mold, so a few already went to trash earlier.

I did fix and isolate my attic last year, so 'thx Adee' yes i will relocate as many to the attic now.
Unfortunately the hatch has a tapered shape, so only medium size boxes will fit.

I keep all my boxes, but my collection isn't massive yet, and probably won't be unless I move to a bigger house. I store most in my garage, and a few in the crawl space (more like crouch space) under the house, which thankfully manages to stay dry enough.

All of my boxes are above the third bay garage. I have them organized by company and then scale. Easy to find if I decide to sell. Before we moved to the new house I had them in the garage on rubber mats to keep them off the concrete floor and covered in plastic. Much nicer to have them up and out of view now.

I put at least half of my boxes on the attic now. what a relief i have some storage-space again..

Hatch was even smaller than i thought, had to disassemble 70% of these boxes to flat cartons and the styro slices one at a time. And re-tape it at the spot lol, but it worked no unnecessary damages.

Keep them. You will need them once your girl tells you it’s her or power girl.
