I'd say 100% of them will be affected at some point, when repacking for a move/sale. They should've made that part separate. Only solution if you get a perfect one, is to construct a separate packaging foam for the head.

I was going to use some of that soft grey foam to protect the ears of the mask and the crossbow.

Just received a shipping notice from P1 directly. I am curious if P1 changed the inside packaging and if they have included the mini-crossbow.

That would be much appreciated. I figured a dirtyish look would be intentional, but that black mark on mine just doesn't look right.
I looked through my photos that I took and I don’t have a black mark like yours so it’s 99.9% a paint rub.

Haven't ever had a piece arrive broken before, but it's a pretty good break. Some tips of her hair as well as part of the mask. Is Sideshow generally good about handling these situations?
My crossbow hand does fit nice and snug. My cape is painted similar to yours to show wear, but my black mark isn't as big as yours. It's really a bummer to see perhaps P1's finest portrait have so many breakages.

Got word back from Sideshow that they have no more supply for this piece I guess in terms of replacement parts. Bummer.

I have this one (fabric) on order. I really hope they get this ironed out. Im not gonna settle for a broken piece on 1000$ statue.
