Looks far better than that stupid red packaging.

[Kill Solo]

So have these hit US stores already?

no not yet, prolly not for a month or so still

[Agent Adam]

Looks ok to me. 'Course, its just gonna go in the garbage anyways. @smilepunch@

[GaZ]

I dunno why they couldn't have used something G1ish from the beginning and keep it consistent. The MISBers aint gonna like this one bit!

 

Hopefully the numbers will at least follow on this time. Remember the first change, when it went - blue blue blue blue red blue red red red......

[rodimusconvoy21]

So, now, are we gonna see the blue Tracks and Meister in those packages? I mean, they told thye were gonna release them in Spring 2006.

 

The new package looks to be designed to younger kids. The first one was the best out of the 3.

I think it looks allright.You definatly can see more and this is good for the collecters who keep the Alternators in there packaging.

It looks a hell of a lot -sturdier- than the previous two, particularly that slaggin' red box!

 

They should've done this design, but with the G1 red and purple for the cardboard bits.

 

 

 

 

Either way, me likey!!

[CHA]

Don't matta to me what the packaging looks like, its going to go in the garbage anyway.

 

Has Dragstrip(Decepticharge @puke@) been released yet. I've yet to see him. All I see is Swerve.

[OB1Killa]

I like it. Better than those sucky red half opened boxes that keep denting with little force...

[obiprime]

I love the new packaging, But while it will display well, It wont stack well. Im loving Alt prowl ill buy one for loose and one for MiB.

I was just thinking the same thing, for me I'm more than ok with it....but I guess for the people that like to keep everything MISB this could be a bit of a downer....oh well, no company has ever bin able to please everyone and this is no different.

I think the new packaging looks great! Not great for storage, but it will look good in the store and it will look great dispalyed MIB (not that I leave anything MIB, but I may with these guys).

Same for me.

[FUGAYZIE]

its ok I guess but I'm not a big fan of it

[eclipse1]

to me, the packaging isn't the big problem. it's those boxes making their way onto shelves. they can update the package all they want, it won't matter if no one ever finds it.

[madman1366]

I would think as long as the bubbles on them are nice and sturdy then they should be better than the red boxes where store employees tended to grab from the box top and ripped them a lot of the time.

 

I'm just wondering if you can get these out of the box without ripping it apart to do it. @hmmm@

My thoughts exactly - and as for the packaging, maybe kids will buy them too now, which will mean we may see them a bit more often and in greater quantities on the shelves!

[duh_prez]

I guess this takes us back to that old debate... can new alts still be considered MIB or is MOC more appropriate?

[Mike]

I edited the title

[nomadofthewaves]

I think it looks pretty good I think more so for people want to leave them in the package and display them.

[Galvatron Prime]

I think that the new packaging looks great!! I like that they are being consistent with Cybertron type packaging. Looking foward to seeing those on the shelves or more to the point in my toy room
