unshippable

Won't fit boxes

Something unshippable cannot be shipped—either literally because it's too fragile, hazardous, or oversized for transport, or figuratively because it's not ready for release.

In software and product development, unshippable describes work that fails to meet minimum standards: The build is unshippable with that many bugs.

In fan communities, an unshippable character is one nobody wants to pair romantically with anyone else.
