And for the record, the small complain has to do with the conditions in
which the instruction booklet came - nothing TOO serious about the product
itself. I would just like to replace the damaged booklet.

I have a similar complaint about several newer sets e.g. 8466, in which the
instructions were mangled up because of the way the boxes are now packed.  I
know it is done to save on packaging, but couldn't the instructions and
stickers be placed in a plastic bag?  This would stop them from being
mangled up, and I doubt that it would add significantly to the cost of the sets.

Hi Martin,

I agree with you. In fact, if TLC is trying so hard to save on packaging,
why not return to the old style? The cardboard was thinner, and the box
inside could be re-used for storage... I still have some from my older sets
that I use to keep old booklets in. Besides, the older boxes were lees
damage-prone, IMHO.
The plastic bag to keep the booklets is not a bad idea, even though it is
not too good for the environment. OTOH, TLC might try some paper envelopes,
the same kind one uses to ship "A4" documents - this way they could be
recycled/re-used once they were opened. Just a thought.

Pedro
