I know such topics may exist elsewhere, but neat special, preferably hand made and unique packagings. Feel free to post!
There still is certain amount of special packaging happening, but more often it appears crappily made, somehow half finished. Like finding some sort of box, and just throwing things in. Or some sort of plastic bag or some sort of "library case".

I look for examples of any medium, and approaches can be either examples of careful craftmanship or even something goofy. It can be over the top luxury or just something handmade and unique.

First unique one that comes to mind is Pulse Emitter - Vent.  Used to have it, but got rid of it.

That Halo Manash with the bone is awesome!

I was moving around boxes the other day and wondered why one was particularly heavy.  I'd hate to think how much it would cost to ship this now.  It weighs 6-8LBs.  It errored out my small digital scale that limits at 6LBs.
