My wife is in at opticians which is right next door to local toy shop so I'm killing half an hour checking out the SW toys.

Got me thinking about the packaging - on one shelf they have pretty much an example from every modern line from the last 10 years and the 1st Black Series looks pretty crap compared to the rest. I actually quite liked it when it first came out, the black and orange reminded me of Bespin freezing chamber but compared to Vintage Collection or the cancelled Legacy it looks rubbish.

The latest blue version with TIE pilot is a big improvement but again when you compare it to Legacy it falls a bit flat.

Looking forward to seeing the Episode 7 style - fingers crossed they will go with Vintage style again.

If they have any sense they will go completely retro and have the other figures on the card back.
 
I know that Hasbro have shown the SDCC First Order Stormtrooper 6″ packaging so it is a Ltd ED but I quite like it

As for 3 3/4 figures it will be interesting to see the design that goes into the shops but I think they will be aiming at the kids with this one more than the collectors, I'm sure there will be a collectors line as well, but I could be wrong I normally am.
 
I think your spot on - Hasbro will have them on standard kid friendly packaging which we'll snap up then a year later we'll get retro packaging for collectors which we'll also snap up :lol:
