They arrived last week, and as with most Amazon orders, the cheap postage comes with a guarantee of damage... as both boxsets were crushed, and this was despite being filled with those large air bubble packing materials. (usually they just throw in 2 or 3 bubbles and they just bounce around loose inside the box with all the items, but this time there was enough in there to hold everything in place, but something heavy must have been on top of the box on the way to my address)
So even though it wasn't Amazon's fault this time with the packing of the box, their choice of cheap shipping created the damage... so, it might have been a good thing for some to miss out on this, if it had meant getting a crushed boxset (for those who keep the toys sealed, or display the packaging).
At least you got a packing box. My 40th Star Wars Vader set arrived today from Amazon without any packaging. Squashed, dented and postage labels stuck all over it. Not impressed...at all.
