Um, weird question: does the outer shipping box say Toys R Us? Wondering if I can pass this under the radar...

I'm not sure, but I would assume that if they do, there would be some sort of option to ship it as if it were a gift. I suppose it depends whose eyes you want to hide it from and whether they could see past that or not. :lol:

the box pictures are on the 3rd post and it has the FAO label, seeing as it is their anniversary exclusive
If you hear the sound of the bell which will tell you that Grigori has been killed, if it was your relations who have wrought my death, then no one in the family will remain alive. They will be killed by the Russian people. :prays:

I think she means the box that it would be posted in.  :)

Yeah, the outer (presumably brown or white) box.

I don't see an option in the cart, only that it's not eligible for gift wrapping, which isn't the same. I'm hoping to hide it from adults, long enough to get the box in my room and the items well-mixed with the others  ;)

I thought I was the only one who did this sort of thing . . .  :lol:

I went to the garage to check outer shipping box (that's where I toss the boxes my Playmobil arrives in). Unfortunately, it's already gone. Sorry.

If it did say Toys R Us, it was in an understated sort of way. Maybe on a black and white label. Not big on the side like the boxes Playmobil uses to ship.

Good luck. Maybe no one else will be home when the UPS truck delivers! :wave:

Small print is fine... I just have to be the first to the door  ;) Thanks.

One can only hope :)

Now I should probably get something for my niece's birthday (turning 3) as well, since it'll be free shipping anyway...

From the ones they send me it is just a plain brown box with the info on the label. I have not seen a TRU logo-ed box

When you order it they sometimes send you an email telling you the tracking # so you could always follow the package to your door and be sure you are home alone when it does arrive. If some one is home you could use the great effective line "here is $20 go get yourself something to eat"  ;)

Here is a picture of the outer box.  Checked the outside and the rest of the box is plain.
