It's like a law, you have to pose Starscream in its cape and crown in that pose.

As you can guess it was completely crushed and every edge of the box was worn and frayed. Shame because I really love the art on this box. The contents seem to be OK, I've checked every bit of everything in the box looking for any signs of cracks or stress marks. Only obvious thing I found was some paint transfer from the tips of his shoulder pilons onto the top flap of the box (which I guess they expected since there's a layer of tape on the front and top of the box to keep the figure from rubbing on cardboard.
Anyway, while Starscream seems to be physically fine I'm having issues with the right shoulder area panels coming together. It feels like the top red part might be warped, and it could be stressed and just not visible because of all the red paint. The right side just doesn't want to lock in place as well as the left and when I do get everything lined up right the already built in gap between the chest and shoulder is even more obvious on the right side. Too much movement and everything pops apart. So the question is, is this a common issue due to mold degradation that I should live with or should I pack it all up and try exchanging it for a better one that hopefully isn't smashed in shipping?
Also, while inspecting for cracks I noticed something I haven't seen before, but checking other figures it's definitely an error in the sculpting that's present on all Earthrise Seekers including the Coneheads.
There's a panel line missing from one of the hinges that completes the panel there. What a weird oversight.
