Anyone going to that event let’s start mentioning if Hasbro would sell the 3.75″ highly articulated action figure line to Hot Toys. Would you like that idea if Hasbro doesn’t make them at all or not anymore?

In reply to Bombadgungan. Thats true and I didnt realize that packaging has rarely been predominately white till you said it. I remember the LC because I started collecting towards the end of that line, but looking back at all cards I can see they have tended to be darker colors. Perhaps discover the force was one of the only other packaging that made use of lighter colors.

In reply to Etheangel2220. This reminds me of the old Legacy Collection 2009-2010 packaging. That was fine at the time, but white for Star Wars packaging always seems a bit odd to me. I much prefer the darker colors.

In reply to Brian Beck. I figured that was supposed to be Rey, but it almost doesn't look like Daisy Ridley to me. I'm not sure I like this new look, but as @admiralsarmy:disqus said, I guess we do want a slightly different look to our main heroes from movie to movie.

“The new line for ‘The Last Jedi’ is our most innovative yet.”

I’ve got a bad feeling about this. Doesn’t Hasbro know by now that the fans didn’t ask for innovation? They want the same ol’ same ‘ol that was done from 2010-2012.

Not sure I like the choice of three heroes on the box. Used to just be one villain. Obviously they’re trying something new because Rey and Finn were arguably more popular than Kylo.

Still, it’ll feel strange to have their faces on products that don’t feature those characters.

I am not loving the new packaging design, it looks like a pod racer flag or maybe a sneaker box.

Wow the box looks pretty good, but its also probably because the black and red box is so worn out by now.

I’m liking the box. Red and white works well. I hope the characters are all given slightly different looks. Doing this in the original trilogy helped each movie feel different.
