I got my Emperor yesterday. Strange side story, I was home all day, and my "tracking number" through FedEx said that it was delivered at 12:12 PM yesterday afternoon, to our front door. I looked around our entire house, and never saw it, figuring it must have been delivered to a different house by mistake. I figured I would give it a day, and see if it turned up. I was standing at our kitchen sink doing some dishes around 6:30, and I see a guy pull up in a red pick up, with gym shorts and a FedEx Polo on, and he runs up and drops the box on our doorstep. Kind of strange I thought. Either he said he delivered it, and didn't, then dropped it off later...or it got lost in the shuffle, re-delivered or something. Anyways, maybe that's for another topic, but we've had consistent bad luck when FedEx delivers something. Never any trouble with UPS, and no trouble with the Postal Service since we've moved. Anyways...that's a side note....
On the actual topic, I couldn't believe how nicely this figure was packaged, as others have said. Hopefully SWShop.com has learned from past mistakes, and this will become the "norm" from now on. Nice that it was packed in a Star Case, packed carefully, and arrived in spiffy condition. That said, I don't know that the figure itself is all that impressive, which is why I am leaving it packaged for now (it does look nice on the card). Not a terrible figure I guess, but I just really wish they could have knocked our socks off and had a vOTC style Emperor or something like that instead. That would have been really nice. Oh well, its a nice exclusive, and better than nothing
