Somehow, the box got a little smashed/ripped in 2 places but overall it's in pretty decent condition compared to others. The MGS box was surprisingly double boxed AND gift-wrapped with my little "Merry Christmas" note and a red bow-tie. Given the fact it was wrapped like that, it still managed to get smashed like I've mentioned earlier.

Just thankful that it didn't come severely ripped apart or bent. Pictures soon! I'm in the US btw!

Here we go...

What's up with the Merry Christmas? Did you choose that message or they put in a generic greeting? Cos christmas was over 2 month back

Also,did they come with the yellow handles or did you get them modified at a scissor modding specialist?

Would you consider selling your pair,cheeky I know but they are some gorgeous scissors.

Heheh...I don't know if you're serious or not?! But to answer your question, I don't know where we got it, we've had it for a while. Pretty sure you can find them at any home goods/office store. The handles weren't modified, they came as is..

Lol I chose that message because yes, I placed the order over 2 months ago before Christmas and the gift wrapping option asked if I wanted a message to go along with it

lol you should seek refund, as that is a 'christmas message' way overdue mine is still somewhere in transit, doubt it will reach AU shores. Original 4000 copy here.. was planning to cancel and get the AU copy but then again, I forgot I used paypal method, therefore they charged me as soon as possible..

My nightmare is partially over. The Xbox 360 version arrived today and it's not perfect. I don't know how bad it is. Will post pics tonight when I arrive.

Sad to see yours arriving damaged as well. Guess a mint version of this is going to be extremely rare.

Mine arrived yesterday packed exactly like V3nom's but without the gift wrap and in similar condition. I feel pretty fortunate not to have one that was totally banged up and torn like some in the other photos posted.
While Zavvi's packaging for this edition is rather sub-par, my F.E.A.R. 3 CE from boostep was shipped in nothing more than a brown paper bag. It also arrived in decent shape after spending weeks in transit/customs.

I found this forum looking for some unboxing videos... Now I'm scared that my copy will arrive completely shattered.

How the hell they send it overseas in a plastic bag???
