Got my C-3PO from Sideshow and the slip cover and plastic bag was not included. Came in the HT brown shipper though.

No good indication. I’ve heard of this practice before, but it was quite a long time ago since last. I sense this figure yours is a returned item, HT never skips any steps in packaging. I would get in touch with SSC, their customer service is great.

You should not accept used premium goods sold as new. Get them to exchange your item with a new one.

How does the figure look like? Any signs of prior “use”?

Link to a similar case: Sideshow sent me a used Hot Toys figure...
 
Getting my 3PO tomorrow. It was supposed to be in today but my shipment got delayed. Hopefully I get one that has everything included (slip cover and bag).
 
Wow! That sucks to hear. I feel like we were just talking about how crappy Sideshow is with sending out obvious returns in another thread recently. I would definitely contact them about it, but check the rest of the figure first to make sure there's nothing actually wrong with it. Hopefully they don't try to say that it falls under their "we don't guarantee artbox conditions" bit in their return policy.
 
3PO looks pretty good. One slight concern on mine is my upper right arm has a split. Not fully split and not broken but I probably have to be careful with it. I can also see the pistons being delicate and breaking if they’re moved too much.
 
Hi there. So sad my pre order of R2-D2 was canceled today. Sideshow is sold out and the shop in Belgium couldn’t find a piece anywhere… I pre ordered the ROTJ C3-PO as well. He will be all alone… an idea where I can find a R2-D2?
 
Is the head on this AOTC C-3PO exactly the same as the accessory 3PO head that comes with the HT Battle Droid and HT AOTC R2-D2, just the neck joint attachment different?
