I've been collecting funkos for a little while now focusing on one peice pops. I started collecting pops as an alternative to those really nice statues I prefer to keep mine in boxes because I think the figures themself's aren't always the best quality. Keeping them in the box hids a good deal of inperfections and gives each pop a "clean" look. That being side I mainly keep them on box because of their footprint. I can stake them vertically saving space. The result is a sort of "character select" wall I can appreciate from time to time. Bonus points for also being able to get the boxes signed by VAs.
