Hasbro has just sent us the update below, letting us know they will be updating the packaging for Transformers 6-inch figures. The new Transformers boxes, that will be coming this Fall 2024, have not been shown yet. However, we can see the other windowed box styles with plastic trays from Marvel, GI Joe, and Star Wars.
These appear to have changes made to the windowless plastic free format that many adult fans were unhappy with their toys having the touch before they got them home. This is also great news for those of us who like to keep their packages for storage, as the plastic free boxes were flimsy and don't store as well. Read the official update from Hasbro below for the full details.
Starting in Fall 2024, fans can expect the new packaging design across G.I. JOE and TRANSFORMERS, along with premier collaboration brands Star Wars™ and Marvel 6-inch collector figures. The new packaging structure features improved visibility of the figure and accessories, more robust packaging materials to protect against damage, and an improved unboxing experience for the figure and accessories. This new structure will also provide consistency across package size and design aesthetics for collectors who purchase figures across our brands.
What does the new packaging look like? We’ve included product and packaging images here of some of the newest 6-Inch action figures from the G.I. JOE Classified Series, Marvel Legends and Star Wars: The Black Series—as part of the first wave of figures we’ve introduced that showcase the new packaging design.
This update does not include packaging for fan collectible products like the 6” Marvel Retro line, Star Wars Vintage and Retro, and G.I. JOE Retro, where packaging is part of the product experience and typically retained intact for fan display and collections.
We listened to our fans and collaborated with our partners to make these updates.
Um Hasbro never dropped the plastic windows on the Star Wars figures if I am not mistaken same with MOTU if I am correct. Could be I never saw them since TF's are my thing but I really don't recall windowless packaging. So are we supposed to be expecting window packaging for Transformers or is the writer just hopeful?
