 Suggestion The next time you blind-bag something, really blind-bag the mofo.
That's all. Thanks!

OK, I've been filled in. I agree that if a release is blind-bagged, people shouldn't be able to figure out which variant is inside. Hopefully future blind-bagged releases won't have this issue. Seems like a good suggestion to me.

I don't get this suggestion. do you want a foil bag with a hologram on it?

liquidsky wants the outer bag to be constructed in a way that prevents people from being able to figure out which variant is inside. Apparently, the Spirit bag was thin enough that light could pass through, and at least a few people were able to figure out which variant was inside.

ONLY super 7 staff was handing out these figures. you walk up and say "i want 2 spirit gf's" and they hand you 2. you couldnt hold it up to the light and say "oh man, i want 2 more, these ones suck"

Just an observation and a suggestion. Take it for what it's worth.

I want to know why I didn't get any jelly beans with my easter grass.
Oh yeah, and sell the GF stamp.

I have to say that little colour jelly beans in a clear figure paired with the grass would make for a cool combination and photo.

depending on the price, it would be cool to use a box, or maybe something more interesting like the old secreter pringles cans (mini coffins or something, i dunno)

How about when you go to buy the figure, they kick sand in your eye,use a fishy pushead bandana to blindfold you,spin you around 6 times and then hand you a stick and you have to bash the GF out of a pinata?
