I get it. Super7 is not Hasbro and does not have those resources, but my bigger worries is that how is Super7 going to ensure the QC and protection of said item once it's shipped. Hasbro did an amazing job with the Barge and I can't imagine Super7 double boxing this thing and ensuring it is protected.It invest that much and knowing it may not be shipped or arrive in the condition expected based on their current track record is a deal breaker for me as well.

I really think they should have made it slightly smaller. Time will tell in seeing how well this does.

They actually describe the shipping:

Snake Mountain will come packaged in a deluxe art box (measuring approximately 25″ x 25″ x 28″). For delivery this will be wrapped in protective paper and protected with inner foam corners and shipped in a larger plain (no logos) protective outer shipping box.

It sounds to me like they're doing a good job with it if that's you're concern. But I agree that $150 for shipping is absurd. If it's the same for everyone in the US it should be built in unless it's the same price if you order 2 or something, but that would be nuts.
