Guys...
We have recently been talking about breakages in the sets we buy especially, from TG. I know from contact with fellow members that this type of thing often puts newer collectors etc off buying from a manufacturer when they hear this so, here are some pics of the way that TG gets his sets wrapped. If I was sitting on the fence or worried this type of wrapping would make me confident.
The polystyrene that the aircraft is placed in has several layers of cellotape to ensure the aircraft cannot move. There is ample room in the cut out for the aircraft to sit in so, any knocks from our friendly posties will be absorbed away from the model. There is plenty of foam cutting placed in the correct places to ensure support for the wings body and tail fins
Damage occurs to sets for a variety of reasons but, TG does everything possible by a manufacturer to ensure they arrive in tip top condition
