[QUOTE="Palifan, post: 520652, member: 4095"] After watching the video I can see why Michael opened it up as he really didn't want this ever being passed off as the original release of this 3 pack ever. I'm not sure if this was the first 3 pack that had been found with this figure combination or if that's even really relevant but I guess it's a way of protecting the history of this item in some way. Saying that I'm not sure it's something I would have done but even if you sold it on with all the disclaimers about what you know about it, it's impossible to know that the next owner of it would do the same and I think that was the whole point of opening it up. I also think this was done so publicly so that everyone out there knew that this had been done to this item and the reasons for this happening. I can totally see why this video would upset a lot of collectors out there although I'm sure there are a lot of supporters also for doing this but the one thing I kept thinking was did Tom Derby but a real Lando Skiff first shot in the fake box by accident? He seemed to pick up 2 of them from different boxes (the real and fake boxes he had on the table ), and then put them back in the same box. Hopefully he's not ruining the hobby himself lol!
