The poster seems not so sure if it's newsworthy but I do. It makes the whole opening process so much less infuriating.

Very newsworthy. Takara have been doing inlay trays for years. They make opening TFs a pleasure, not a damn chore.

Woo Hoo!!! It's about bloody time!

I can recall having to undo a heap of twist ties when freeing my TRU Reissue UM a little while ago but my Reissue Anime Galvatron didn't have even one of the cursed things... Stupid twist ties - May they rot in hell!

I noticed this with one of my TF:A purchases - Bumblebee has no twist ties. The Voyager's and Leader i've got unfortunately still have them, but the boxes are also a bit easier to reseal nicely than the TF:Movie toys were.

When did the Twist ties first appear? Was it during G2? Beast Wars? Earlier. I don't recall G1 toys with twist ties but it's been a long long time (17 years?) since I opened a MISB G1 toy.

And here I was, thinking I was the only one who hated twist ties...

I was very surprised that Henkei Astrotrain had twist ties!

My Lockdown had no twist tie, I was pleasantly surprised

My Lockdown and Bumblebee had no ties, and I think Prowl had 2.

Lets hope twist ties are gone for good (for reasons like they cost too much to produce or something).

There's a saving in labour vs. cost of thin bit of cover plastic to be had. Hasbro have finally gotten a little sense.
