I think the Rebels figures were Fan Channel releases. The only physical stores I can remember seeing them in were Books-A-Million and Gamestop.

Back on topic for this thread, I'm not a big fan of the plastic free packaging. My only concern is swapped figures. I know Target has stopped accepting returns for open collectibles but I don't know how strongly they enforce that policy. Sometimes it's a matter of who is working the returns desk. I've never heard of Walmart having a similar policy.

However, I do think that plastic free packaging is a good idea. Based on a quick Google search, it can take a couple of months for cardboard to decompose when left outside, exposed to the elements. Plastic on the other hand can take several decades, if not centuries. There are other factors that can slow down or speed up card board decomposition. But if my toy packaging is ending up in a landfill, then the biodegradable option is better in the long run.
