Yeah I was really worried about handling it
I just took it to my framer in the tube.
I got back a bit ago with Avengers variant. Once I get it on the wall with the other three in their proper spots, I'll update a photo. Now the long road to CW. I still dislike the 8-10 week time period. But I guess it's better than SSC's and HT's 1-2 years.

I don't think it'll be 8-10 weeks

Thank-you Mr. Oliver Barrett AND Bottleneck!

What was the initial scare? A dented tube?

Tube was rock-solid (even though shipped through the collectors "Satan" - DHL) - I think I could have jumped on it and it would have been fine, and it took forever to get the plastic end-cap off (ridged plastic thread) - so the whole OUTER packaging was superb.
BUT, the tube was too long for the print, and the print had been wrapped too tightly, so it was sliding loosely from end-to-end inside the tube.
When I took it out, one end of the print/brown paper combo was caved in about 3", and the other about 1", so my heart sank thinking that the print was bent too.
It turned out that because the brown paper was wider than the print, it was just the paper that was caved in.
Still - could have been avoided by not wrapping the print so tightly OR using a tube that was only a couple of inches longer than the print/paper.
All's well that ends well though

That exposes my learning curve regarding North-American terminology - what does "gorilla gripped" mean?

When it's rolled so tight it creases the print

I'm not sure about Yoda, but I really like the Tie fighter pilot. I regret not ordering Kylo the other week now...
