[QUOTE="tomBitonti, post: 4415030, member: 13107"] Having looked at the packaging, and at the product as a whole, my reaction is that: *) Unless the bag and the dice are very nice, the product is quite a bit expensive. (Compare it with the intro set for the miniatures games, which costs just a few dollars more.) Plus, there aren't as many dice as I would expect. *) The packaging could be improved by having a clear window showing the dice. The produce is presented as a "premium" product, and a display of the dice would be nice. *) The packaging doesn't seem to be too wasteful, other than I don't understand why anyone should ever get this instead of getting dice from the dice bins at most game stores. I'm comparing the packaging with the packaging for the intro set for the miniatures, which nicely displays the miniatures, but is one of those annoying plastic cases that is very tough and very hard to open. I'm also comparing with packaging that I've seen for individual MTG 15 card packs, which is a clear plastic case (!!) enclosing the pack. I know that isn't the usual packaging, but I saw this at the book store when I was looking at the dice packaging. *) The way this all falls out is that I find the packaging wasteful, but because I don't think that the product deserves to exist in the first place.
