A heartfelt plea,
---Warning---, I am a technician that has worked on Postal machinery. The
Postal service uses machines to sort their mail and would crush and mangle the
minifigs. Normal flat letters are okay, but a minifig would catch in the belts
and rollers resulting in the minifig broken into ABS dust pieces. I get called
to repair machines when people send refrigerator magnets, pens, pencils,
jewelry, etc. in the mail and the articles in question are crushed beyond
recognition between heartless steel rollers.
So I beg you, I don't want to go to any minifig funerals. Please send them in a
small, solid, stamped, self-addressed box.
