So my personal experience with these figures is:

Walmart shipped Destro and Gung Ho in a box, and Lady Jay and the Baroness came in mailer envelopes...

The cardboard Hasbro used for the cardbacks is the cheapest, thinnest cardboard you can imagine, the figures that came in the envelope fared the worst, with both cardbacks bent beyond any repair, and Lady Jay even had the top part of the plastic blister detached from the cardboard, so it's partially open now.

I had intended to keep these figures sealed, as I have already collected all of their "classified" boxed counterparts, and I thought they would be a nice collector's item to display in cardbacks.

Hasbro and Walmart destroyed those plans, the cheap packaging material, plus the way the figures were shipped totally wrecked any value the figures had.

I will not collect any more of these "retro" figures, may my experience be a cautionary tale for other buyers out there, steer clear from this shameless cash grab.

Bravo Hasbro! Bravo Walmart! Your anti costumer practices strike again, you've lost me as a costumer.
