I thought they looked kinda "classy" in how they put the focus on the figure... but they're plain. And ultimately, and this includes 6" figures too, these aren't "high-end collectibles" no matter how you try to make the packaging LOOK like it is. These are mass-run toys...
I just don't get why they changed from TVC when there's such a tiny window between now and inevitably new looks... Keep going with TVC, cut the # of figures down per year, and call it a day. Spicing things up with a new look seems pointless...
I have a very good "feeling" this isn't intended to last more than a year anyway.
