Then inspected carefully that it looks tampered in factory when i also went to one hobby store to check their stock which is same side double taped. so this may be QC issue / random check (but shouldnt they tape it when stacking it already in the shipping box?). since all came in one factory I think it gets distributed to Hasbro Asia and Takara Tomy Japan. But they will still claim this is unopened and new as usual.
Yeh I'll just leave it. I remember that following Shockwave I requested single taped boxes on all orders after that, it's the best I can do.
