The unhappy face emoji was in contrast to your smiley one, because the set is no longer in stock; and in sympathy for those who missed out. I did say I checked their site on Monday night and it was still available at that time. If I didn't have one, and wanted one, I would have ordered right then. As it is, I secured mine as soon as I received the promotional email from Zavvi saying it was available again. Thanks for your concern though
Dude, you weren’t kidding! The box Universal put the set in is superb and built for advanced levels of protection, and as a result of that, my JP set arrived perfectly mint, but the “long box” Zavvi enclosed Universal’s box in was basically as useful as wrapping it in wet tissue paper and it arrived shredded to hell and barely able to hold the inner box anymore. Zavvi is such a garbage company. If only they didn’t have such delicious toys…
