International Capt Grid-Iron

[vadersquest]

Hey guys, I just got a Capt Grid Iron from the UK and I am torn...do I open or leave it sealed. Been looking to see what info is out there and so far nada. Looked through the archives and I must be blind so the question is....to open or not to open. I would hate to open a rare figure (I know, its capt grid iron lol) but still. What do you guys think?

Keep it sealed and look for a loose sample. Best of both worlds.

I think there is no european variant of Grid Iron, it was the exact same figure.

Its the exact same figure, but you can get a mint loose complete one pretty cheap. I wouldnt open a vintage moc figure.

If it's the same figure, keep it carded because that is where the value ends up being. Grid-Iron on a UK card.

If the accessories are different then don't open it. He is one of the figures that came with different weapons then the US version.

I think it should stay sealed, just for posterity. Like others said, if you want him loose, just buy one loose, the ten bucks you spend will be worth it. It's a rare item even if it's not a character anyone cares about much. If it were a USA version, I'd say much the same. At this point any original run figures should be left unopened out of historical value.
