How is target with their packaging? Arrive in good shape?
Pros:
They sent an order confirmation e-mail right away and provided me with a tracking number, as well as a delivery notification e-mail
It took all of two days for my order to arrive (from placing my order early Thursday morning to receiving the package on Saturday afternoon)
Box was a medium size with more than enough room to accommodate my order
An assortment of airbags were included with my items for protection
Shipping was free when I spent $25 or more on their website
The figure itself was not damaged in any way and the paint apps are consistent for the most part
Savage's head in particular is flawless
Cons:
The figure packaging feels unbalanced and loose, with a giant sticker on the front and minor shelf wear
The boxed LEGO set I purchased alongside Savage came with a huge dent/tear on the front of its box
There could have been more airbags given the size of the box
For that matter, the box probably should have been smaller
Savage has a few paint chips here and there, some missing green paint on the front of his right boot, a small black dot on his left hamstring, and one minor scuff on the back of his torso
All things considered, I would give them a solid rating (B+/A-) since I'm a loose collector and have no need for the slightly-worn packaging.
Even the punctured LEGO box doesn't bother me because I know I'll toss it out anyway.
Now, if I were a MOC collector, I would probably wish I had tried to find these in stores first before taking my chances online.
