I saw the packaging for the new Hasbro and they look nice. But I would rather have the plastic shell like the old ones.

Is there any way to get the "build a figure" without having to buy the rest of the set?

this new packaging really makes no sense.

Does this ever happen to you guys....you start lookig through the pegs at the store (Toys R Us, Wal-MArt, etc.), and you come actoss a variant! When you pull it out from the rack, you find that the packaging has been intentionally bent so the figure is no longer truly "mint". Thats GOT to be the stockers of these items. The people who stock the toy aisles take a LOT of crap from variant hunters, and that is how they get back at them. One guy at Toys R US actually told me that they open the boxes in the back and bang up the variants on purpose (he was referring to hotwheels). That way word gets out to the hardcore collectors to not bother rampaging into the stores at dawns early light because they are not going to find any mint collectibles that are flip worthy.

The plastic clam shells REALLY cut down on that kind of behavior. Going back to cardboard is really a step in the wrong direction, IMO.
