Uhh, I took apart a RC F-150 that was screwed to the box. First time I havn't seen twist ties in the packaging.

And really there is no need to package something in such a way that you injure yourself while trying to open it. I cannot count how many cuts I have recieved opening the hard plastic packaging.

Oh and the plastic wrapping paper that is rip and tear proof. Worst idea in packaging history.

It's still pretty lean around here too. When roofing companies have no work, times have to be tight
