Thanks Again!!!
The whole is greater than the sum of its parts. All 4 Dummies videos. Thank you guys.
Definitely the experience of opening a premium packaged product is the thing that does it for me. I'll also feel like the packaging can reflect how much pride the manufacturer has in their product!
Oooo... Basil Hayden's is my favorite bourbon.
Man, just realized you live in Baltimore. Cool. I live in Hampden. Thanks for the content Bobby.
Good video and I like the topic of conversation. I think having a good box is part of the experience. I have a whole routine. Grab a beer, my box knife and sit down with some music on. Lightly cut the tape off. Gently breath in that new toy smell, admire the box a little bit then destroy it before my brain says to keep it. I do however love neca ultimate packaging, not the clam shell but the box itself I find to be pretty awesome. I feel like it's the company saying that they took some pride into making the item you bought.
So glad you guys mentioned XTBs terrible boxes. My Andras box disintegrated while I was opening it and my Eligos didn’t hold out much longer. Shame really because the products were nice and the art was great.
I recently destroyed all my boxes for sideshow/hot toys...about 10+ years worth because I noticed mold spores had formed in some of the boxes(gets humid here). It was painful at first, but actually felt good to get rid of all that useless stuff when all's said and done.
I thought the topic was going to be boring but i did enjoy listening
I do enjoy me some new FT smell out of the box. I enjoy the art on a box most of all. I was lucky enough to get my Mass Toys Skiff signed by the artist! Great work Mac! And i dig the mentioned puzzles by toy world and generation toys. Some of those Warbotron sleeves were tighter than a frog's ass in the winter time to pull off! But agree with Jisk, great packaging. What i hate is the excessive use of twist ties in a clam shell. Its not going to go anywhere, one or two will suffice. And there is the pop goes the weasel effect from Marvel legends! Weapons and crap all over the place when the figure finally pops out and shoots across the room! Great and entertaining video good sir!
I'm so glad ive been hoarding all my damn boxes, for one reason. Next year I'll be moving over 1700 miles, and every toy that's in good packaging is one less panic attack for me.
DX9 Mightron has some of the best box art ever! Also Their Stunticon box art is pretty good.
Basil Hayden.... Girl got some refined taste buds.
Best presentation for sure is Generation Toy. Worst to me is the Open & Play plastic bag they sold Galvatron in.
KFC boxes are pretty too, especially the ones of their Horrorcons
I buy doubles, triples, and sometimes up to 7 (Fanstoys Hydra) of the same character from the same company. I keep one box per character and sell the rest. As far as all the extra accessories, I try to stuff them all into the one box I’m keeping. I like to have a box for each character to resort to if I ever need to, otherwise the others go bye bye. If I kept them all I’d have already been out of storage room. Lol
I love the planet X packaging also because of the foam they use.
I think a thick brown cardboard box with some nice back art on it is great - because this shit is destined to be disposed of, and that could actually be recycled properly. I'd even like if they started using cardboard inside the box to actually support the figure, because the plastic tray is non-renewable, and styrophoam is non-recyclable.
Haha, not much arguments concerning the environment. The preferred packaging is the hot toys Dx line: a sturdy box, with a card of some sort, great art, and foam. The in er works of the box are really a part of the experience. I throw away all my transformer boxes instantly, but the box of my dx12 is literally the reason that i always stop myself from selling him 😂. As for transformer boxes, to me environmental reason outway the value of my experience, because you're right, after it's opened the first time, there s no more experience to be had there, so i don't care much for it. The gt foam was nice indeed, but i couldn't care less 😅
In KFC’s defense, my Wreck-Gar aka CrashHog has nice packaging. Sadly, I can’t even bring myself to throw away my SEIGE or Potp Tf packaging. But this video just helped me get over my hoarding ways... bye bye card packaging. Thanks.
Great topic as usual, Bobby. Just to throw in my opinion for fun; I can’t stand FansToys packaging. It’s such a clunky experience. The plastic top helps though by making it more visually appealing. Overall, I call it the Earth killer packaging. As for ThreeZero and Flame Toys, the box is nice, but the plastic inside is so flimsy that it makes it difficult to put it back into the box. I would love to see a more Earth-friendly, Apple-like packaging. But I’m sure it’s more expensive - that both the company and consumer wouldn’t want to pay more. Oh well.
I agree about Apple packaging. Not the biggest fan of a lot of their products, but damn, they really know how to present them.
My only concern about packaging is its sturdiness. I want to be confident the product will be undamaged. I keep my masterpiece/3p masterpiece boxes. If my wife and I decide to move, I want those original boxes for moving purposes.
Foam isn’t recyclable so boo on that
I miss the clamshell packaging for Hasbro deluxe class figures. I hate that everything Hasbro sells comes in a really flimsy box.
Zeta and Xtransbots made the most reduced and secure boxes. Some Wei Jiang...
I wish more companies would make shittier boxes, for one I think it would make the overall thing just cheaper and more importantly it would make throwing away the damn box so much easier. I can't tell you how many boxes I have just cause they look nice, makes it impossible to get rid of them.
I prefer junk packaging as those can easily be disposed with no worry. I hate when they have excellent packaging because then I have to save it and boxes takes up way too much space. =P
Bobby is a nightowl
Mr. Bobby "hating on his own Fanstoys box art" Face.
It feels like this whole video was got Bobby to talk about mass toys packaging lol
Everything goes now unless I'm immediately not taken with a figure and decide to sell it on.
Fanstoys packaging is very sturdy, but the graphic design consistently makes my eyes hurt, ghastly :)
I would much rather have ethical packaging. Every figure I get makes me wonder about the cost to the environment.
Official hasbro products can be recycled
For me generation toy op ex is done well and prestigious in presentation.
GT and TFM boxes are the best there are.
Yes it is, I just bought one off eBay without packaging and only instructions unfortunately
Really interesting discussion! Can't wait for the uncut on Patreon.
I remember getting Warbotron Nosecone before getting the rest of the set. Don’t care for packaging, but that impressed me. I do like Iron Factory since it’s easy to open with no tape anywhere.
Basil Hayden's is the real Bourbon.
Matt Hurd let’em know man.
Damn this is a good show. I love all of your videos man. I also agree the packaging is part of the experience. Nothing gets me more excited to get something and have an awesome experience opening the item. What I do hate though is the times when there are like 50 metal twist ties around the figure holding it to a plastic clam. Nothing frustrates me more than that. You never know which way you’re supposed to untwist. Sometimes you think you’re twisting the right way and then you realize that you’ve just been tightening it more. AHHHHHHHH!!! I just want to start pulling and breaking.shiznit. But a beautiful package that is easy and fun to open enhances the experience exponentially.
Unique Toys Brawl and Blast off packaging sucked ass big time. Fell apart almost instantly
What did Allen Iverson say? "Package? We talking about package? Not the toy, the package? Lol. I'm going with Toyworld as my #1. Ace toys might've been even better. Takara, for the price, is probably the worst.
i dont care about packaging at all except to keep the product from being damaged during shipping. if it saves money on the purchase and it comes in an unmarked box then im fine with it. if its just getting thrown away then i dont need any bells and whistle packaging and i dont collect cardboard so its going to get thrown away eventually.
I don't like paying for package, apple 100% waste . Gimme the brown box . My money is better spent somewhere else.
I agree.
another company with really good packaging is Wei Jiang. All their MPP primes and oversized prime are packed well
For me, I 1st noticed beautiful packaging when I started collecting watches. If you want an erotic packaging experience, collect luxury watches. But seeing as Im broke and in heavy debt, tne package experience is a thing of the past. Ebay packaging now baby!
Daaaaaaamm boi...........
I feel like the cheaper and smaller the packaging, the less of a cost gets pushed on to the consumer. I rather them put the money into the figure than the box. I like a nice box, but the figure is what's important. The Zeta Ariel Bots are package nicely, but when you take them out they feel like the box was made out of better Quality Materials than the figs. Great video!
For me, the packaging is a one-shot deal, you get it, you open it, and then, once you are done, ya dispose of it properly ..styrofoam, ugh, hate it, did not care when I was kid, and like Omega comes in foam, great, but now that I am older and care about these things, the impact it has on waste and the environment, styrofoam is horrible. that said, I still appreciate a toy that arrives complete and not damaged.
Great talk, I've recently decided to get rid of all my packaging and by Christ it felt good to have that all gone but only because I bought some IKEA bookcases to actually display stuff out on.
I do like some packaging like the Jiangxing Winged Dragon, agree on the Generation Toys and definitely foam inserts all the way over plastic clamshells.
I also like the space it makes by not having a bunch of boxes around and it also feels like I can enjoy the product a lot more too.
I had all of my beast wars, beast wars neo, beast wars II, galaxy force, CHUG and 3rd party boxes.
Some were beautiful but had to Marie Kondo them out.
No mention of Ocular Max? They're doing some of the best, nostalgic packaging out there imo!
Planet X: Am i a joke to you?
I don't buy anything for the packaging. Honestly a plain, recyclable cardboard box would be perfect for me. I feel bad about all the plastic trash.
Planet X has decent packaging. At least the older ones.
Open and Play had the best packaging. So sad I lost the collectors bag.
Would be interesting to see how Hasbro ditching plastic in their packaging in 2022 and how it could affect that market would be covered in this scenario.
I keep my packaging the best packaging is in my collection function x boxes from fansproject
STD barrier! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. Man that’s an episode title somewhere.
Also to me I want all figures to come packaged in alt mode so I have to earn bot mode
To me I think the giant Styrofoam brick of fans toys sucks. It’s not 1980.🤷🏻♂️
The only good thing about packaging is to make sure the toy arrives safe, after that toss it.
One thing that is absolutely hilarious is people going crazy over these star wars black series white boxes, lol paying double or triple for them! It's the exact same figure that are in the regular black boxes!!!!!
First world problems that worth 10-minutes discussion
You think Fans Hobby is the worst? HA! Open and play has the worst because they dont send a box, they send you a plastic sleeve and that's it.
Hello-o-o-o-o-o-o
So much soy in these comments, everyone knows you keep the coffins = closet wins!
