Big Foot figures are shipping

I received the two I ordered today. Unfortunately they do ship in plain white boxes with no further packaging inside. I'll try to post some photos shortly.

Cool, couple questions I haven't been keeping up.

1) When does this end?

2) Can we use mini figures purchases from family dollar?

Did you send out for yours on the 1st? I'm kind of disappointed but not surprised in the packaging.

I am as well nice to know Playmates thought more highly of the simpsons than the toy line that put their company on the map.

Huh? If your meaning the Playmates Simpsons mail-away pair of Cooder and Sinclair (ha, that rhymes!) -- they were in a white box too.
The only Simpsons mail-aways that had actual 'package' boxes were the ToyFare ones.

That's not entirely true. Cooder and Sinclair were in baggies in the shipping box. But most of the other mail in figures that they did later were in boxes.

How about a review on your site? Your review on the Donatello statue was kind of helpful when I decided to bid on a Mikey statue (and win!) last month. I'm sure there are quite some European/Australian/Asian fans considering to get the Bigfoot on ebay. So a Bigfoot review could be very helpful to them.

And because I would just like to read it if you did one.

That means I got mine too-- I've been ordering so much stuff off of e-bay that it didn't even occur to me that that's what those might be. So they didn't even bag them? All that means is that I'll have an extra to sell if the price is right, bwa ha ha ha ha I'm so evil...

Yeah. That's what I was thinking.

None have hit e-bay yet-- I wonder if I can be the first one?

I'm going to pretend that you never said that so I can think you're a human.

Bigger than Hun. It wouldn't have fit into any normal figure package.

All this hype over such an ugly character...lol. The toy looks quite large. How many points of articulation? Its mouth is permanently open huh? Well, I should be getting mine in a few days, but so far, I am not impressed with what I am seeing from Playmates. Begining posts said there was no packaging beyond the box, but I consider the plastic bag packaging. The part that says "TMNT Big Foot Figure", is that on the outside of the box? Can you take a pic of the box that it was delivered in? It sounds weird, but I am weird...lol. Thanks.
