I wish it wasn’t so tiny looking but I welcome the change.

It was a different thing but once I got used to it, didn't bug me. Aesthetically, it is a different look to the front of the box.

It's nice that you don't have to worry about the sticker peeling of but wish you could see that it's different from the norm glow in the dark or neon something that makes it stand out more

Caught a glimpse at a few chases in the wild recently and I have to say, I miss the stickers.

I miss the stickers but understand why they made the move. Just a bummer. :freddy3:

I like it, though I do not really like the aesthetic. But I do like that stickers do not fall off anymore

I don’t mind the change. One reason why I like it is it leaves more room for autographs on the front panel if you were to get it signed.

I miss stickers but is not a big deal I guess. Some of the stickers I’m not a fan of like the chalice sticker I’ll wait for funko shop to drop a certain pop without their store exclusive.

One thing i like is people not being able to swap the stickers on a better condition box just to resell

This is true although I think it’s only chase stickers being placed into the box so exclusive/con stickers aren’t affected

I definitely miss the old school sticker. Much easier to spot in the wild. I've actually glanced past a few chases in the wild, not noticing the new "Chase" portion of the box.

That being said, knowing that there's no chance of a sticker swap is a nice certainty to have!

I completely agree. I like meeting celebrities and getting their autographs. So having the chase sticker on the box allows me to have more window space for autos, especially if I'm trying to get more than one.

The nostalgia of the window chase sticker is immense and I do prefer the old sticker was was the best was to identify Chase pops in the wild back in the day. But I do understand the cost savings of not having to print stickers use man power to place the stickers as well!
