Personally, i've never liked handling anything from USPS/FedEx/etc because their conditions are filthy. I'd be more worried about shit particles than the fucking flu.
Just wash your hands after handling that shit.
In fact, you don't even have to ever touch the packaging or let it inside your house. Take a knife while holding the box with your feet outside and take everything out right there.
Take the box out of teh packaging and wipe it down with alcohol if you care about keeping that trash.
Otherwise, take that same knife and take the figure out of the package.
Once figure is on your table, wash your hands. The end.
oh wait, maybe if you care about washing the figure to remove the lubricants from the toys that are put on the molds and packing purposes, you dunk the figure into warm water with dish soap and swish it around for a bit. Rinse figure off and shake it dry.
Now you have a figure that will attract less dust and will be easier to clean in the future. Also, no chink germs nor fecal matter.
Now wash your hands. The end.
