Hasbro ends the stupid closed box packaging

Surprise. Sales down, theft up. One good point in the video is that in closed box Hasbro was cutting costs not assembling a lot of toys, not only the cost of the plastic.

I'm one of those weirdos that opens everything but keeps the boxes. My biggest problem with windowless was that it upset the standardisation of packaging for my GI Joes, but I get why collectors who don't open would be pissed. If reversing that decision keeps the lines alive then I fully support it.

If you're interested in action figures, there's a thread that I admittedly don't post enough in, which could do with more plastic sharing goodness.
