I feel that the COTF booster boxes are exteremely difficult to open compared to the previous sets. Anyone notice this? You pretty much have to tear through the top or bottom to open.

During the sealed tournament, I barely had enough capacity in my box to carry my extra miniatures I was not using, for I had to tear the box to shreds to open them. Very irksome indeed.

But...it was so artistically done-Grand Admiral Thrawn's last dying words

Every body at my FGLS opens the booster from the down side, is really easy now than the up side!

Anything that helps reduce booster searching or repacking, I am all for.

Just afraid something might damage the cards. One may never know.

Now way! The cards are safe; when playing Magic TG a friend used to open Boosters with a scissor until it cut a serra angel in his new booster.

Here they are more safe. Blow the booster or open from below.

Rebel storm/Clone Strike/Aberrations boosters were often opened accidentally - this is better than that.

They're easier to open than the last three sets od DnD. As far as SW goes, I think CotF is easier to open than RotS. Maybe I just got better at it.
