I prefer the look of the old packaging. That nice little vista of a planet or whatever is nicer than the plain black that we now have.

This is perhaps what i was reacting to the most without realizing it. I am also a big fan of the little planets they put in behind each ship.

This is wave one.

Hopefully they have something planned to help players and retailers identify newer waves of stuff as they release.

one thing I’m super happy about is the moving of large ships to blister packs. The boxes were such a pain to shelve and store.

You are allowed to carry a knife or box cutter in public. The TSA don’t search your car. Yet.

every x-wing ship I’ve ever gotten were zoom-zoomed in the car!

Not in my country haha. Unless you want to spend a night in jail.

Growing up I never thought about whether carrying a pimple pocket knife was ever going to be illegal, especially given the utility of just always having a knife handy to cut cords, string, open bags or boxes, carve initials into a picnic table or tree, etc. and now kids have to wear transparent backpacks and go through metal detectors just to get into the school building.

all that just made me feel really old and really depressed
