For me GW aren't too bad, they use up all the space possible on their sprues, plastic packaging (box insterts) are kept as thin as possible with out loosing rigidity, the boxes themselves are recyclable being cardboard, and the shrink wrap to keep the boxes undamaged is as thin as you would want to go. The same can be said for their blisters. GW also offer ways of using up excess packaging for making terrain. Clipping down sprues for rubble and using bliter fronts and box inserts for windows or other building features.

I still think more could be done though. Whilst it may not look very nice I would rather the box inserts were made from recycled card board, a bit like the packaging you get in mobile phone boxes.

My pet hate with packaging is vac formed plastic, the sort of stuff GW use for their tools, I am sure there are alternatives. I find this stuff difficult to open and impossible to recycle (with ease). I would rather they put their tools in card boxes or blisters.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/284108/1408962.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/284108/1408962.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/284108/1408976.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/284108/1408976.page GMT GW packaging is generally fine. The biggest improvement I could think off would be removing the parts from the sprue before packaging.

It's not the models that take up all the packaging, it's the fact that they're attached to a rather larger plastic sprue...

Do they even sell anything in these anymore?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/284108/1412062.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/284108/1412062.page GMT
