Well, I am waiting for my 2nd Missile Command set to ship. I got my first one yesterday. Believe it or not I had the original one that came out 1983. Man, it was a bitch to put together and it did not stay fully assembled either. The cardboard they used back then was flimsy as all get out. I do love the throw back though. I am going to keep it boxed though.

Everything arrived today... damaged. The boxes are either creased, crushed, dinged or dented. I can tell the ECT on these case boxes is really low so they crush too easily.

The Missile command set came in amazing shape. Couldn't be happier. Now if they can find the 2nd one I ordered.

HTS is almost as bad as the shittiest sellers on ebay when it comes to packaging. I once had an asshole seller ship a carded figure in an unpadded manila envelope, sans any type of packing material, "sealed" only by that little fold-over metal tab thing. HTS is like that guy. |

ECT = "edge crush test"
Well...if one of you winds up with a beat-to-shit Missile Command set you don't want to keep, hit me up. I don't care much about the box's condition since I'll be opening it up anyways.

I'd gladly buy a damaged box one off anyone who didn't want it since I only want the figures.

My Missile Command set arrived crushed as well. I was going to open it anyway and the contents were fine, but meh. The Revolution box was fine though.
