The thing Hasbro isn't taking into consideration is those higher end products that are sold in Japan have significantly better QC than anything they produce. The likelihood of something aesthetically being wrong with the figure is extremely low so having windowless packaging isn't an issue. They also aren't thinking about the fact that Japan doesn't have the same petty theft problem as America where retailers and collectors have to worry about people tampering with product's.

Plastic free packaging... but the tape still has plastic, and the sea creatures might choke on it!?

Now thats way more reasonable. Had no idea what they were smoking thinking that 84.99 was the conversion from the American price of 29.99.

Might think about picking it up soon.
