I'm pretty much one of the most unlucky people in the world so I have blind packs of any type.

So far, I think everyone is pretty much in agreement that the blind bags are thankfully gone, but yes, absolutely, I miss the "weird" stuff like Muppets vehicles and less current movie items.

I'd be up for some more unique packs that don't directly tie to a playset or character release. That's probably why I liked the Tomorrowland set so much in this round. It wasn't tied to anything else being put out.

I'm not sorry that power discs are gone, I just wish we'd have more. I feel like power discs were a bit of an after thought to this version.

I wish they'd bring back the two packs of random discs, but just allow us to see both discs. That way I could decide if the duplicate was worth the value to buy the disc I didn't have or just be able to avoid packs with two discs I already own.

I am going to give the blind packs a chance, picked up 20 packs on eBay for $32 shipped. I'm betting I get a ton of dupes.

I hate the old blind packs. The way the 3.0 discs are set up is how it should have been from the start.

Yeah, weighing up the pros and cons, I don't miss them either. As a lot of other people have said, I do miss getting unusual items like Madame Medusa's Swamp Speeder, but it's not worth it when you have no idea what you're actually getting. At the start of 2.0 I bought one pack of power discs that contained Dr. Strange's Cloak of "Levitation" (*Cough* Yeah right *Cough*) and a costume that I couldn't use, and at that point I was done with them and only bought the few discs that I actually wanted off ebay.

Whilst they could just put the random items in the build menus instead, power discs do have the major advantage that you don't have to go through all the build menus to use them. Having to go through the sky changer and use the magic wand to switch the terrain is a pain in the butt compared to just popping down a couple of power discs and having the whole toybox theme itself instantly. But then on the flip side there's the annoyance of not being able to place power disc items into toyboxes, so it's all swings and roundabouts really.

^ in 3.0 you can use vehicle/mount power discs in the toy box. Place the disc and use the vehicle summoner. I have seen this in a lot of community content boxes.

I haven't tried with the weapons or items though.

Blind packs, ugh.
I sold half of mine on ebay before i found out they add to the exp bonus.

I do miss the the oddball utems from them and keep posting my ideas, like a sci fi pack with 4 random Disney sci fi movies, like Black Hole Maxamillion team up disc.
