I wonder if this wasn't part of some green movement to reduce toy packaging?

If by green you mean money, then probably yeah. I somehow doubt Hasbro actually cares enough about the environment to call a packaging change. Cheaper card-backs, no commissioned art, flimsy bubble pack, hell yeah, we're Hasbro and it's our job to be cheaper than before and charge just as much!
