Re: Hot Toys's DX04 - Enter the Dragon: Bruce Lee 1/6th scale Collectible Figure
Shipping it in just the brown shipper sucks!!!! There isn't any cushion at all. My DX came today and the top was smashed in a little, but it was enough to smash the top of the actual box. When I pay $252 for a toy, I expect it to arrive perfect. Saying they shouldn't change their policy is crazy. When I purchase from AE, I get it with an extra box and amazingly it normally cost the same as shipping through Sideshow.
While this may be true, the "shipper box" seemed created for a single, utilitarian purpose--being the external vessel used to ship collectibles to collectors while minimizing potential damage to those collectibles in a reasonably cost efficient manner.
Though some OCD collectors later decided that the condition of the box used for the purpose of shipping another box is important, that is not, in my estimation, reason for Sideshow to somehow change its long-standing procedure for shipping items.
