It's also from a company that I've been side-eyeing for awhile with their massive rise in *certain figures* against bandai and their qc control so I'm rather hyped

Had something arrive for birthday later this week yesterday and the shipper used such an unnecessarily giant box it was half the size of my front door

The item in question is a large figure but it's not THAT big

Oh my god HLJ seems to be actually usable again because of how much cheaper the FedEx shipping option is compared to DHL

This is about a $20~ difference here
