What MGS Games/Items Don't Come Sealed?

I thought about asking which ones come sealed, but that would give us too long of a list, so I thought I'd ask the inverse. So this question goes for games, promo items, books, etc.

It would also be nice if we could get pictures of these things too.

It'd be a really good idea if we could focus the answer over at the wiki, and integrate it into an existing page, like a price list etc.

That way it'd solve having a massive topic and it would also be hugely accessible and editable by all. That's not me being negative mate, I'm just thinking about it from an efficiency point of view! :)

On all my item pages I have "FACTORY SEAL" listed with a detailed description of if it had it and if it didn't. It's also tough what some people consider to be a seal or not.

Take a jacket for example, if it has tags attached I consider it the equivalent to being a sealed item.

I think if I saw a list of items I'd be able to rapid fire answer if it ever came sealed or not. Some items are so rare though it's really hard to know as almost nobody has it or can remember back from 10 years ago when it was released.

would you consider the RAH medicoms factory sealed with a tape on the top of the box?

i know that is kinda debatable, and I'd call it factory sealed. (you can usually tell if the tape was tampered with or if the lid has been opened b4)

Well, however yall want to do this, make it happen. I'd just like a list for us members to go by.

It'd actually be pretty helpful I agree. Just make sure (whoever does it..I'm nominating TSi) you make a list including details of what a proper factory seal is. E.g. if there's a security tear strip with the Playstation logo embedded in it in the case of the Y-fold shrink wrap for PS2 JPN releases.

Please see the "Price List" page on the wiki to update it with the 'circulation' and 'sealed' information:

P.S. TSi and other editors, there's a few Q's on the discussion for this page.

Did these individual 3 games come sealed within this or any other subsistence package?

What about the US LE MGS4? Those come sealed inside as well? I'm not opening mine to find out.

My Japanese Subsistence was sealed when I got it, if I remember correctly. I think the large box was in a plastic envelope and the DVD boxes and manual were unsealed.

they are all unsealed inside, but sealed with a shrink wrap outside.
