Yeah we have stories of fellow collector getting the Spin Attack Strafe thinking it was the proper deluxe!
How many kids are gonna find themselves with a non-transforming Transformer or Flip and Change Grimlock or those horrible looking Dino Rider figure or even worse, one of those shampoo bottle style Titan figures come next Christmas/birthday because the parent got confused by the similar packaging?
To me that seems highly dishonest. I know they want to have some brand identity going on but there's still a limit to the similarity between packaging!
