Did your Vader arrive in tip top Sith condition?

I've had my second replacement Vader head for weeks now and I haven't even looked at it yet. Shipped to a US address, Sideshow took care of shipping both times. The first time to an old address so I never got the package.
 
I bought the next-to-last Vader from BBTS; sadly, his belt and chest lights didn't work, even after switching out batteries, so I had to return him for credit (now sold out). I bought another from SSC, keeping my finger crossed ...
 
I guess it was bound to happen. I got my dealer to check the figure before shipping and they did and everything was perfect and lights worked. I even got pictures beforehand, but the loose dome which I guess was the one thing they didn't check was stuck in the clear plastic tray. The only way I can describe it is that it had welded with the clear plastic. If any of you are fishing types it's almost exactly like if you have a tackle box of low quality and you put your rubber jigs in the trays and after a while when the rubber and plastic becomes one you'll have a huge plastic/rubber tackle with hooks sticking out all over the place. There is even a piece from the dome that still attached to the plastic tray and lots of flat spots on the dome.
