interesting way to go with the deluxe...err revealer packaging.

And where are the glowing in the dark for optimus and meg ?
definately paying for the packaging and design. But Fxxx with those stickers and takaratomy model kit period.

its like they are hidding something? does it make look more like collectibles rather than just toys?

I think its a great way to be able to repack and store your Tf, wish Hasbro would catch on to this Idea instead of the current sealed blisters Japan has been doing this sort of thing since G1 just not with deluxe class of late,.. also a nice retro to bring back decals/stickers and the minicon assembly like a mini kabaya kit idea works for me

Intersting.

From a collectors point of view these are awesome compared to the stupid blister packs.

From a kids standpoint...meh, can't see the actual toy. Kids are visual creatures and like to see what's inside.

If Hasbro did this we'd all be bitching about people ripping the boxes open in the store to look inside.

Bah, why would you do that if the content is clearly shown on the back? It's not like say, the current SWTF toys where the robot mode is nowhere to be seen on the packaging despite the toy being visible...

I'm not saying I'd do that....that's just what will happen.

You see opened boxes all over crappy tire, walmart etc.

People want to see and touch the product so they know what they're buying. So they rip it out in the store check it out, try it out then stuff it back on the shelf and grab a sealed product and go buy it.

I see this shit happen all the time.

I see this shit happen all the time.
Collector people also like to do QC check, but if there are sticker avaiable, I guest that is no need to check if the panel line or color was right in the certain spot etc.
and this model kit and sticker style might make those T-T more valuable if misp without touching the sticker and assemble the model tray. Hence, it is like buying a Hasbro one to play and keep the T-T one to display.
