Hello all. Just a quick question regarding the packaging of the Takara/Tomy Henkei! line: Is it possible to open the deluxe sized toys without destroying the packaging? Thanks.

No, there are always a minimum of two sides of the bubble which are glued to the card.

Yes. It's usually held by tape on the sides, just slide a razorblade through it. I opened my Thunderacker and Skywarp just fine and the boxes are unhurt.

Yea, he's right. I was thinking of the new Classics packaging.

You can slit the tape on the henkei boxes and still leave them mostly unharmed.
