StJohn:
Congratulations! And what a nice box! It is shocking to compare this delivery time with our last collective order, early in 2021. I then used regular mail (DHL), and it took MONTHS to get to you. Either things have improved considerably since then (Covid-19), or the Rijksmuseum is using another shipping company. I sometimes receive items from the USA within days when UPS is being used. I guess that should be it.

I was genuinely shocked to see it was coming today; packages from Europe never arrive this quickly. It was DHL; it came from Amsterdam (Van Gogh Museum). The original ETA was Oct 18, which still would've been pretty fast.

Got a box like that too... had no idea it was a painting. Was immediately schooled. :P
(will pass the box to someone who can truly appreciate it... it is gorgeous.)
JLMatterer:
Deluxe Toy has been able to order me the new life-size figure for this year, & it is a Klingon. (Wow!) I haven't seen it yet, but I assume that it's old-school, before the head-lumps.
I was told that it would be late in arriving, as PM "fired" the company that makes the figures; I have seen in the news, though, that the company was close to going out of business. That news item was a few months ago.
Pynedor:
You must have quite the collection of large figures now! That's awesome that they order these for you. :D
