By now, the fact that the bubbles on the new Vintage Collection figures are very loose is well known. The carded figures are shipped from the factory with clear tape providing extra security for the loosely sealed bubble. This is cause for concern for the "mint of card" folks, but there is another concern. I noticed that when opening my Hoth Rebel Soldier, I barely inflicted any damage to the card itself, and I wasn't even trying. Unfortunately, this is going to mean it's open season for the scumbag swappers out there.
