Thanks Hasbro...
And this time I mean it. I was really worried that I would not get the mail-in fig because I my refusing to open the comic packs...thankfully it's really easy to get out by simply slitting the tape on one side and slipping out the packet with the POP in it. Slide out the POP, slide the packet back in, run a new piece of tape across the back and done...beautiful. Not a bad deal, I get to keep my packs "sealed" without buying two of each and I get my DOC...very cool. |

Unfortunately, this also makes it waaaaay too easy for thieves to steal them, too. A better approach would have been to have a number that was printed on a sheet that maybe was stored underneath the stands or figures themselves in the package. I know this would piss off MOC collectors, but if they just made it the old fashioned way where you had to cut the POP out of the card it would pretty much eliminate the problem of theft/stealing.

Yeah, it's great and all, but when you see the packs on the shelves with peeled off tape and no packet inside (No doc redemption sticker) Suddenly it sucks ass.

I have not been able to open any of my packs without having to break the "seal" at the bottom of the packaging where the bubble is glued to the card back. What am I doing wrong?

If you want to get the figures out you'll have to break the bottom, but the little baggie only requires cutting one side.
