What pisses me off is that it seems as if the ROC figures are going to be the easiest to repack due to their packaging.
I decided to open one the other day but I didn't know how to exactly go about it. I like to save the card art so I am very careful to cut the blister bubble off of the card with a razor blade.
Since the ROC packaging was new to me I wanted to be very careful. Instead of just cutting the blister bubble straight off, I decided to open the cardboard foldover on the bottom of the card. After I cut the tape on each side of the card, opened the tabs, and un-folded the cardboard flap, I noticed that the blister bubble was attached to the card differently than on other carded figures.
There were little slices in the plastic. so the card was only attached there by the parts of the plastic that weren't cut. I'm sure this is the way it came from the factory.
If that is the case how will that keep repackers from just slicing that part open, sliding out the tray, replacing the figure, sliding the tray back into the blister bubble, folding over the carboard flap, and then placing new tape over the 2 side tabs?
Once that is done you wouldn't be able to tell that the bottom of the blister bubble had been sliced open.
I'm sure that this Destro "variant" was done the same way.
Please be careful with all of your purchases to make sure that you are getting exactly what you are paying for.
