bloomin heck, you weren't kidding, where you...

Fire off an email to the place you bought it from - they should have things like this being shipped better, even if its a "Fragile" sticker on the box.

Not much you can do really, until you hear back from the place you bought it.

there was no proper packing inside the bbox at all

just the parts stuffed in ...

just looked again..... i think the only parts no damaged are the screws that hold the thing together

realy realy shocking to see such poor packing

still seriously angry

Hopefully they should send you a new one! I'm pretty sure they must have insurance for when this happens! If they don't give you a nee one it will not look good and would put people off buying off them on the offchance they mite not get there model in one peace!!!! :S

That sucks man..what a let down. Guess one of the british tanks fired a few rounds at it... When that van driver comes to your door ,and he hasn't got time to wait for you look through your box. Always,always sign as damaged. That way you are covered with them. As for the packing..well i guess Big tanks was saving some BIG $$$$ when sending their well cared for models.

As a 1/6 collector interested in one of these models they have lost me as a potential customer. Thanks for letting us know. Hope they sort you out quickly.
