Everyone has long agreed that LEGO has always oversized its boxes in relation to their content.
Many criticisms have already been made on this subject and in particular this year by the magazine 60 millions de consommateurs which evoked deceptive packaging for the consumer (See this news).

So, is this an exception, or is LEGO reviewing its packaging policy. And if so, is it only for environmental and economic considerations, or under pressure from customers who feel cheated by a few bags of coins in an oversized box?
I remember my son's reaction to opening some Star Wars sets.
