Super Freak
my collector box was ripped on the top and bottom of the spine. i didn't even bother asking for a replacement because the standard reply is 'we don't have any but you can send it back for a refund'. if i wanted a refund, i wouldn't have asked for a replacement box only. even if they do have a replacement figure, it could arrive worse than what you have.
FYI, i often get dented and ripped boxes, both collector and brown shipper when i order from sideshow direct. that's why i only order exclusives from them anymore. i do the rest of my ordering from BBTS. when i choose 'collector grade', they pack out for a mere $2 extra and everything arrives pristine like it was right out of the factory carton.
That sucks dude. Yeah they offered a partial refund, like they normally do. I thought if I got in early they'd have some replacement boxes.
Can't order from BBTS as the shipping to Australia is ridiculous (something like $77 per figure). Sideshow is really cheap in comparison (Bane was like $25 from memory, and DX12 was $29 I think).
