Blister card help needed.

[0193081]

Anybody have any ways of opening blister cards so they don't get damaged/can be put back together so they look good?

Probably the best thing to do is cut the cardboard from the back (in the outline of the blister), remove the figure/tray and put tape on the back, as well.

Even then you're likely to gest some small white
tear spots from where the glue was just a bit stronger, if you decide to actually glue it back on, you'll want to make sure that the tear marks line up...IOW no white or grey showing under edge of blister.
As far as the newer style things like ML it's easier if you decide you want to display it in the pack again.. just cut it open around the back with a sharp x-acto, take tray out, remove figure . Keep all the pieces of the package and just tape the back on after putting the figure back and you're all set.

Sounds like too much work to me.

Hmmm...I may try to just cut the back out.

blister might be harder, clam shell's pretty easy...

hot glue? just do a thin seam all the way aroudn and press it back onto the cardboard? usually the pattern that's been printed on the cardboard stay on the plastic, so it might even cover up most of the glue!

No longer an issue...but thanks for the input.
