Figure Dilema- Opinions needed please...

Today, I became the proud owner of seven Commtech Stormtoopers. I have opened one for my collection & plan to use the other six for trading purposes (none of them will be sold for any amount). Would anyone consider this scalping? The way I'd like to work a trade is 1 for 1. There are some figures I still need and I know there are still people needing stormtroopers. Does this system sound reasonable or is this comparable to scalping? If it is, then I now have a squad of stormtroopers. I refuse to lower myself to the level of scalpers.

I wouldn't call that scalping, if you were trading 1 of your Storm Troopers for a bunch of other figures then that may be one thing.

Heck personally I'd open em all up cause its a wicked cool figure :)

yea free him from them from their cardboard prison
