Worst than the dumb Canadian package, no Orion Pax sticker on top of the cardback.

The front packaging on these are dollar store worthy at best-actually worse than dollar store because even those $3 animal converters have better frontside packaging. The backs still have the bios but I would not buy these to collect or hold on to, buy them if you want to open them and enjoy them. I bought Hoist for that reason and he's a good figure and looks good next to Trailcutter/breaker but I won't them to keep in their awful packaging.

If that's the case... I may have to get the alternative US version again. How do we let Canada Hasbro knows these aren't selling because of their cheap packaging? They need to learn a lesson that you cannot give us shitty packaging.

I don't think Hasbro Canada really cares. When the deluxe goes on sales under $10 they will sell.

Yes, I think you are right.. they really do move when they are on sale for 10 now to think about it. I guess we won't be getting nice packages like the ones from the States

Yes, I will be waiting for the $10 packages as well. My son doesn't care about the packages, he just wants the "original" characters

I have the US version...Paid sale price and it comes with the Comic. I'm not a comic guy but I'm enjoying these non the less....In the case of Thundercracker I was so underwhelmed with that figure that I was happy to at least have the comic to read after fiddling with the toy.

QC is shit on IDW Thundercracker....just transforming it you get stress marks in the blue plastic. I recommend that no one pays more then $10 for that toy.
