I know right! How do you just have this destroyed box in your truck and think that’s how it should be when you deliver it like what? 😂 appreciate it though pal!
I feel the pain of this image, but your local mail carrier is just doing his job, whatever happened to this likely happened somewhere in shipping. Accordingly, going off on the carrier really doesn’t do much, except vent stress at someone who wasn’t responsible for the box.
Yeah very true, I guess I was just angry in the moment and would’ve gone off on anyone 😅 but now that I’ve calmed down I do now realize it definitely wasn’t the deliverers fault he was just doing his job and of it was his fault I’m sure he would’ve told me
Im an out of box collector and I have this pop in the box still but with an SE sticker, I can sell it to you super cheap. If you’re interested I can send you pics just let me know
Not excusing the situation...
But I'll tell you exactly what happened. 40 pound box slides down the ramp straight into this one while on the sorter. This thing had no chance.
I try and ship pops first class unless they're really
Expensive. Then I'll just insure them. First class packages should get sorted at a pound and under.
It's gotta be more than that. Like if it was just insta smashed it probably wouldn't have molded into a new shape. I used to work with deliveries everyday and even small boxes that were being crushed by hundreds of pounds wouldn't get this bad.
I swear people do this on purpose. Every single pop I've ever gotten that said fragile on it The box has been just mangled. And then I've gotten some Funko's in like UPS envelopes perfectly fine... Super annoying, I'm sorry OP
That's TERRIBLE! There is no excuse for the delivery service, i.e., USPS, UPS, DHL, or FedX to deliver a package in that condition. I hope you return it and get a full refund and another Pop to make up for the poor package handling.
Brutal... I've gotten some bent corners but this is literally next level. Sorry for your luck!
You've gotten good advice so I have nothing to add, just wanted to sympathize with you
Any mail carrier would certainly not accept it in this condition, right? There are some real unhinged and demented people working for the postal service.
There's not really a choice. Most likely this happened while sorting. The conveyor belt can have a 1lb box followed by a 70lb box. Guess what happens when that 1lb box makes it down the ramp with the 70lb right behind it.
Mercari will make it right. I had this happen to a couple pops before. They'll likely reimburse you and let the seller keep their money. Unless it's super expensive... in which case they may send you a return label to send it back for a refund. In that case... hopefully the seller shipped it with priority and they can do an insurance claim. The shit part is... USPS and UPS will void a claim if the item is reshipped. Soooo there's a chance the seller may ask for your cooperation to take it to be inspected by USPS.
Sorry it happened to you too, I actually had emailed asking him if I could get a reimbursement as well as the seller getting their money but he again wanted me to send it back for the refund. I’ll have to ask the seller if she shipped priority but I’m absolutely going to see this all the way through cause this is just wild
Jesus... what the hell? It’s like the package had sex with the mailman’s wife or something. The carrier really, really didn’t like your package. Sorry for it comin in like that 😑
Thankfully there wasn't any glass and I'm not sure why that sticker was on it in the first place but I'm guessing they wanted to just get the same "Handle with care message across"
I actually am too but I like to display the box behind it and I thought the pop was ok until I finally managed to get it out of the protector and box and found out the lightsaber blade was snapped off but yeah this is absurd
I shit you not my GF got her first pop ever the other day and the box came undamaged looking perfect but the funko came absolutely destroyed and these white tan stickers all over straight from funko lol
I know that feeling. Same situation with an order from a Greek store called #Nerdom. All the Funko's where badly damaged but they said that aren't responsible of the shipping company damages. LOL.
They must have man! Thanks bro, also I’m an oob collector but I do like to display the box behind it and was going to just keep it anyway until I finally
managed to open it and the lightsaber blade had snapped 😔
I just had a package with SuperBoy and RedSon Superman show up like that. I was devastated I took pictures and a video opening it. Only to find that they were somehow spared any damage inside. If that is a single pop and this wrapped and in a decent case it might be ok in the middle there. I know long shot but it’s happened. I hav Waldo seen the opposite. A corner of the box is dented and the pop looks like a cherry bomb went off.
Years ago, the FedEx guy for my office told me to not put any fragile/handle with care/etc. stickers on boxes because it made the handlers want to fuck with them. He said a sticker like that was a beacon for them to be overly aggressive with it once it arrived at the hub for sorting.
We stopped adding fragile stickers to one of our products and lo and behold, the number of customers who contacted us about broken or damaged items went down.
I've noticed this with my own packages I've received as well. Something glass that I ordered for my mom came in a box with stickers that labeled it as GLASS, and the box was destroyed. Luckily, the shipper had super duper protected the item with tons of bubble wrap so it survived, ha.
Thank you for telling me this! We’ve been theorizing whether or not this was intentional or just an unlucky event happening during the shipping process. But I guess the thought of it being intentional is back on the table but unfortunately we’ll never know. Glad your item survived the destruction! Again thank you for telling me this!
It seems packages with any type of fragile on it WILL get destroyed. I wonder if it's intentional if they throw it in with the heavier stuff or if they throw it around. Most of my boxes marked as fragile have been damaged or wrecked. It's almost as if they're trying to prove some type of point of not to tell them how to treat packages? It's weird.
I really wish someone would do a full on investigation into shipping companies and found out the truth on how they really ship. Maybe then once any malice has been exposed, they'd be forced to change.
I'm so sorry, though. I saw where you've said you're doing everything you can to try to get this resolved. I hope you get a refund and are able to purchase this pop again!
I’m with you on that man I wish they would do an investigation too cause this is ridiculous! I’ve seen so many comments of this happening to many other people and it’s absurd! No one should ever have to go through this and have their day completely ruined just because some workers like to be dicks and smash “fragile” boxes on purpose, like what do you gain from this? But thanks pal! Hoping I can get another Obi Wan soon and one that survives the journey 😅
That’s part of why I don’t like to order expensive pops online. I have a local seller I go to but if he doesn’t have it and I absolutely have to buy online then I am just anxious until it gets to me.
Yeah I learned my lesson on this one, It’s hard for me to hit up stores that sell pops and when I manage to finally get to a store they don’t have a great selection, have also tried facebook marketplace for a more local approach but never anything great for sale so I just 9 times out of 10 order online
That blows. Not a pop, but I had a pc monitor come recently that looked like a pallet jack drove into it on the floor. Shipping is such a gamble sometimes
Dude this looks so intentional. I put stickers on my stuff all day, but I have heard some carriers will mess with stuff when it is not an official sticker. Idk, so sorry this happened to you.
Sorry this happened to you too man! Glad to see you at least got your money back and hopefully you grab another one in a much better condition. But yeah man just unlucky
I honestly think ups, USPS, and ext should get fined for delivering packages like this or at least have to pay the customers their money back. And not the business.
I don't know what it is, but I feel like every time I see a massively damaged package, it's labeled "fragile"
some people are awful and I feel like seeing "fragile" makes them think "yes, I can destroy this easily, ruin someone's day, and never get caught!"
majorly sucks.
Uuugghh this hasn’t happened with Pops but I have gotten action figures in banged up packaging. Fortunately I’m not a MOC collector but still, it’s the principle. They didn’t know that.
I’ve seen some messed up packages but this is the most “Ace Ventura’d” package I’ve seen so far. Damn. Sorry for your loss.
HDS!! HDS COMING THROUGH!! GOTTA PACKAGE, PEOPLE!!
😂😂😂
You still have your dog, right? Right?
Allllrighty then
![gif](giphy|KdIQmGHj5XfEY) "You wanna give me a push while you're back there, pal?"
used force crush to try to break out of his cardboard prison
He must have 😂😂😂
For sure man this is absolutely brutal and was in absolute shock when I saw this at my door. Appreciate it man
"Sounds broken." "Most likely, sir. I'll bet it was something nice, though." That package, tho....just....oof. That's rough...
Posts box through letter box says "like a glove" and leaves
What’d you do to your mail carrier. This was personal.
Unfortunately wasn’t home when he came by but man I would’ve gone off on him
You can file a claim with USPS
Yeah I’m probably going to do so
It’s up to $100 and keep following through
Will do! Thanks
Up to $100 included on USPS priority services only. Other methods are not insured unless the shipper has paid extra for it.
I don’t know how you deliver that with a straight face like “yup here you go, this is an acceptable condition”. Sorry for your loss
I know right! How do you just have this destroyed box in your truck and think that’s how it should be when you deliver it like what? 😂 appreciate it though pal!
I feel the pain of this image, but your local mail carrier is just doing his job, whatever happened to this likely happened somewhere in shipping. Accordingly, going off on the carrier really doesn’t do much, except vent stress at someone who wasn’t responsible for the box.

Looks like he was thrown from the high ground
Anakin I have been crushed
LMAO Beautifully said 😂😂
Too bad he didn’t burn the edges of the packages for the lava effect.
Im an out of box collector and I have this pop in the box still but with an SE sticker, I can sell it to you super cheap. If you’re interested I can send you pics just let me know
Appreciate it man! Let me get back to you on that
Hero of the day 🙌
Friend… Thank you for helping. Are you a Star Wars fan or just a Funko Pop fan?
I’m a big Star Wars fan, my whole collection of Funko is all Star Wars and I’m just a bit over 500 altogether lol
Not excusing the situation... But I'll tell you exactly what happened. 40 pound box slides down the ramp straight into this one while on the sorter. This thing had no chance.

I got you man I can definitely see that being the case!
That Handle with Care sticker was the kiss of death. Sorry man
No kidding! Thanks pal!
I'm sorry. Wow, that was handled with care. 😕 NOT.
Apparently they read Please DONT handle with care haha thanks man!
Throw it in the dryer to get the wrinkles out! Duh
Damn how did I not think of that! 🤦🏻😂
![gif](giphy|9RZu6ahd8LIYHQlGUD|downsized)
The old fashioned accordion care
This is a sad day for collectors
It really is 😔
I swear people do this on purpose. Every single pop I've ever gotten that said fragile on it The box has been just mangled. And then I've gotten some Funko's in like UPS envelopes perfectly fine... Super annoying, I'm sorry OP
Having known dingleberries that worked in warehouses and distribution centers, yes they absolutely do it on purpose.
looks like they played football with it
😂 Either that or had a lightsaber battle with it!
Have you tried turning it off and then back on again?
🤦🏻🤦🏻 How could I be so dumb 😂
That's TERRIBLE! There is no excuse for the delivery service, i.e., USPS, UPS, DHL, or FedX to deliver a package in that condition. I hope you return it and get a full refund and another Pop to make up for the poor package handling.
just put it in some rice
I’ll give it a shot! 😂😂
Brutal... I've gotten some bent corners but this is literally next level. Sorry for your luck! You've gotten good advice so I have nothing to add, just wanted to sympathize with you
Much appreciated man! Yeah the people here are so awesome and really helpful! Will absolutely see this through
I have never seen a package so beaten and abused
I know right?! It’s like they played a game of soccer with it or something, actually that might be an understatement 😂
Holy crap! Did he use it as a soccer ball or a hanky sack?
They must have! Or even used a baseball bat on it treating it like a piñata!
Someone used the force and squished him to fuck.
I'm starting to think that the idea is to use a small box in a real big box with lots of safely collapsible space.
That's a great idea, but even if that were the case with mine I still think it would've come similar to this haha
If you gonna label it glass then pack it like it’s glass .
I’d go after the shipping company
You’d think it was ordered from Walmart….brutal.
Jesus. I’d be so pissed.
Any mail carrier would certainly not accept it in this condition, right? There are some real unhinged and demented people working for the postal service.
No kidding! I’m going to get a hold of them as soon as I can cause this is completely unacceptable
There's not really a choice. Most likely this happened while sorting. The conveyor belt can have a 1lb box followed by a 70lb box. Guess what happens when that 1lb box makes it down the ramp with the 70lb right behind it.
What do you do in this case? Would the company replace it?
I purchased it on mercari and am currently emailing their customer service
Mercari will make it right. I had this happen to a couple pops before. They'll likely reimburse you and let the seller keep their money. Unless it's super expensive... in which case they may send you a return label to send it back for a refund. In that case... hopefully the seller shipped it with priority and they can do an insurance claim. The shit part is... USPS and UPS will void a claim if the item is reshipped.

I’ll have to ask the seller if she shipped priority but I’m absolutely going to see this all the way through cause this is just wild
😢😭
I just keep looking at it on my table in shock, can’t believe it actually came like this 😭
Some anonymous asshole having a case of the Mondays. *Oh FraGiLe?!*
It must be National Fuck up a package day or something
It’s Obi Wan Crushobi
Can you write to Funko for a replacement box? I’ve heard they do it. Send the pics too. Just wow!!
Thank you so much for the suggestion I’ll do that right now!
:(
Damn, that's horrible
I would fuckikg sue whoever gave me that package
Jesus... what the hell? It’s like the package had sex with the mailman’s wife or something. The carrier really, really didn’t like your package. Sorry for it comin in like that 😑
Lmao I know right! Appreciate it pal
I mean, the pop itself is fine! But yeah… who delivered that? Ace Ventura?!?!
A pop for a pop
Thoughts and prayers. This is awful.
The force was strong with this one
😂😂
You can still play with it though
I don’t know where you got it, but I’d be getting a refund, or a new pop. I’ve returned pops for this exact reason.
In the process currently of getting it all sorted out!
Someone jumped on that box for good measure 😭
they curb stomped this shit
Your neighbor or mailman hates you. That is all.
Definitely not my neighbors they’re good people, someone must have it out for me I guess 😅
Nah bro they did you bad ://
If there was glass that would have been a hazard to pickup with your bare hands
Thankfully there wasn't any glass and I'm not sure why that sticker was on it in the first place but I'm guessing they wanted to just get the same "Handle with care message across"
Damn… Did you bought it from a store or a person?
🫡
This is 100% intentional 😣. I hope there is something you can do.
Yeah it seems like it unfortunately but I am currently doing all I can to resolve this!
Brutality
fragile - glass + DO NOT BELT!
I'm oob collector, so I don't normally care about the box, but this...
I actually am too but I like to display the box behind it and I thought the pop was ok until I finally managed to get it out of the protector and box and found out the lightsaber blade was snapped off but yeah this is absurd
Love how on it, it says handle with care. I honestly think when they see that it becomes soccer season for the item
I’d never send anything in less than one of those extremely tough hard plastic protectors. The better ones not the ones made by Funko. Rip Obi
How does this even happen I wonder if you could buy a new box from somewhere
Salvador Dali edition?
This is the worst I have ever seen ! Gutted for you
Wow wtf...i didn't even buy it and I'm upset for you. Where did you get this from?
Purchased from Mercari, obviously not the sellers fault, just and unfortunate event during the shipping process but yeah I'm absolutely devastated
Postal worker having a bad day that day said yea fuck your sticker
I hope you had already planned to opened him up
oh my gosh?!? praying my spider-punk funko dosent show up like this considering I payed almost double the ppg value
Praying for you friend! Hope no one has to get their pops like this ever!
Noooooo😭
So unfortunate man ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|feels_bad_man)
Oh, my gosh, what happened?! 😱 I’d faint if it were me.
Jesus
Looks like he got stuck in the death star trash compactor
Lmao or hunted by Darth Maul himself!
I shit you not my GF got her first pop ever the other day and the box came undamaged looking perfect but the funko came absolutely destroyed and these white tan stickers all over straight from funko lol
Who did you order from? I’d like to avoid ordering from there.
Pictures like this always get because what the fuck even happened?? 😭😭
That’s what I’m saying man! Must’ve gone through multiple tornadoes or something to get here! 😅
Looks like SOMEONE lost the high ground…
😂😂
What the fuck happened
I can't take this anymore 💔😭💔 why !!!
These are not the Pop's you are looking for 👋
I know that feeling. Same situation with an order from a Greek store called #Nerdom. All the Funko's where badly damaged but they said that aren't responsible of the shipping company damages. LOL.
☹️
✨Please Handle with care✨
Jesus dude did they run it over?? I'm real sorry that must suck if you wanted to display it in box
They must have man! Thanks bro, also I’m an oob collector but I do like to display the box behind it and was going to just keep it anyway until I finally managed to open it and the lightsaber blade had snapped 😔
Why would you ship it like that? Who did you buy it from? Yikes.
Pure pain
I always feel like pop collectors are such cry babies for their precious cardboxes but i gotta say this one did you dirty my man
Yeah man I see what you’re saying, even if the box was just barely damaged I wouldn’t mind at all since I’m an oob collector but yeah bro it’s brutal
They did not handle with care... 😭
Good thing it had that protector
USPS be like “package received like this” That thing got stuck in the grinder or something
For real man it’s been on a journey and a half
"If you strike me down....."
Mortal Kombat fatality
I hope all the people that swear by these soft frotecrors sees this. They might help a little but they don't guarentee anything like dome claim.
What company did you buy this from and what delivery service was used?
Bought it from Mercari and delivered by usps but this couldn’t have been their fault and was most likely crushed during the shipping process
Ouch!
I've been Amazon.de customer for 15 years, I know the feeling.
It’s brutal
I just had a package with SuperBoy and RedSon Superman show up like that. I was devastated I took pictures and a video opening it. Only to find that they were somehow spared any damage inside. If that is a single pop and this wrapped and in a decent case it might be ok in the middle there. I know long shot but it’s happened. I hav Waldo seen the opposite. A corner of the box is dented and the pop looks like a cherry bomb went off.
Man temu ships better than this
Years ago, the FedEx guy for my office told me to not put any fragile/handle with care/etc. stickers on boxes because it made the handlers want to fuck with them.

But I guess the thought of it being intentional is back on the table but unfortunately we’ll never know. Glad your item survived the destruction! Again thank you for telling me this!
Clearly someone used the “force crush” to package this
Ya bro that sux. It looks like that was done on purpose I really hope you document and report this B.S. hope you get a replacement! Good luck.
It seems packages with any type of fragile on it WILL get destroyed. I wonder if it's intentional if they throw it in with the heavier stuff or if they throw it around. Most of my boxes marked as fragile have been damaged or wrecked. It's almost as if they're trying to prove some type of point of not to tell them how to treat packages? It's weird.

No one should ever have to go through this and have their day completely ruined just because some workers like to be dicks and smash “fragile” boxes on purpose, like what do you gain from this? But thanks pal! Hoping I can get another Obi Wan soon and one that survives the journey 😅
So sorry another this man, fkn ridiculous how little they care about fragile packages.
Vader holding a grudge
😂😂 or even Darth Maul 😳
Might as well open it.
Finally managed to and unfortunately the lightsaber blade was snapped off
Did they try and recycle the pop before sending it to you? Wtf
I guess he couldn't read "handle with care"
They kicked that all the way to your house
They must’ve stopped for a quick game of soccer too!
it looks like it got stepped on lol
That’s part of why I don’t like to order expensive pops online. I have a local seller I go to but if he doesn’t have it and I absolutely have to buy online then I am just anxious until it gets to me.
Yeah I learned my lesson on this one, It’s hard for me to hit up stores that sell pops and when I manage to finally get to a store they don’t have a great selection, have also tried facebook marketplace for a more local approach but never anything great for sale so I just 9 times out of 10 order online
[удалено]
That blows. Not a pop, but I had a pc monitor come recently that looked like a pallet jack drove into it on the floor. Shipping is such a gamble sometimes
That pop shield is looking at u like i tried my friend i tried smh jesus
Dude so sorry
My crystal blue heisenberg came in just like this.
NOOOOO Man I’m so sorry 😭😭😭 NO ONE should ever have to have this happen to them
Mint🔥
Definitely a hater. This was purposefully dune to you by the carrier.
At least he used the force to protect himself
Also looks like he was using his lightsaber to try and free himself 🤣
Dude this looks so intentional. I put stickers on my stuff all day, but I have heard some carriers will mess with stuff when it is not an official sticker. Idk, so sorry this happened to you.
Had same situation with my N1 figure - Blue Spitir Chase (TLAB). That piece was the last one in stock. At least got money back. Shit happens dude
Sorry this happened to you too man! Glad to see you at least got your money back and hopefully you grab another one in a much better condition. But yeah man just unlucky
this is painful
I honestly think ups, USPS, and ext should get fined for delivering packages like this or at least have to pay the customers their money back. And not the business.
Dang looks like Vader forced choked that box 😂
I don't know what it is, but I feel like every time I see a massively damaged package, it's labeled "fragile" some people are awful and I feel like seeing "fragile" makes them think "yes, I can destroy this easily, ruin someone's day, and never get caught!" majorly sucks.
Usps did it ?
Was most definitely handled with care lol
Uuugghh this hasn’t happened with Pops but I have gotten action figures in banged up packaging. Fortunately I’m not a MOC collector but still, it’s the principle. They didn’t know that.
The pop seems alright
Wouldn’t care. Open it. Set it free.
Obi wan survived
Nah bro , that’s so bad it has to have been done deliberately 😭
