Well I don't know about you but the packaging does not catch my eye. Looks bland IMO.
Any thoughts on them?

I think it's sweet actually.  It has a very new and clean look to it.  I'm most impressed.

Bold and Poweful! I think that Hasbro is catering to the carded collector this time. I think this line will rock. I have always been an Eu fan, does this count at EU?

I'm sorta 50/50 on this one, I love the bullet-riddled sandstone, but I'm sorta bored with the Geonosis background... I'm hoping that the background scenery begins to change into forrestry, water, etc, as the Clone Wars was a Galactic Episode, not just a Geonosis Battle, and because of that reason...

Yes, until EP3 makes all of this stuff canon, this line is officially an EU line.

those are the first reall good clean shots I've seen of the new packaging. I think I like them but sometimes i wishthey wouldn't chnage the package so often. I like the blue saga package but the CW package looks cool too! :)

This is an interesting Mock Up card or Proof card of  Coleman Trebor. It has the Clone Trooper in the blister & Coleman Trebor on the back of the card. A very nice item indeed. You can check out the article over at GH for more information.

yeah I sw that a while ago. The new package design is growing on  ;)me, kinda liking the new blasted 'permacrete' look and feel.

Look at this particular shot:

CW card front (http://www.galactichunter.com/photo.asp?image=toy_images/clonecardmock3.jpg)

Looks like total CRAP in my opinion.  What a MESS!  Hopefully that horrid splattering effect gets cleaned up a little before final release.  The thing looks like it was just pulled out of a sandstorm on Tatooine (though I realize it's supposed to be a blast effect).  Ugly, just plain ugly...    :-X

That card front looks like someone through a Tomato at it.
I still like the good old blue cards myself.

I really like it. I can't wait to see that at my local TRU.
