    holy balls… not even from the right decade… at some point, i have to believe that the TRU employee, or walfart, or wherever the toy is getting returned, has to be in on the scam. there are just too many of these to believe that every single one is being returned to a jaded cashier who doesn't know any better or care.

      Some people really don't care OR look. Like an middle aged woman cashier or that man who thinks toys are for kids. These guys wouldn't look twice at the character in the package. Dishonest people really do take advantage of the ignorance of associates who couldn't give a damn about who is in what package.

  2. Usually when I see this, the replacement is at least from the same line!

  3. WOW! I really don't understand why someone would give away a good figure of Psylock for a Bandai Cheetara which is a piece of crap.
    I had high hopes for Bandai working on Thundercats but…..well we all know how that turned out. With the exception of the 8" classics all the other toys they produced were terrible.
