Zartan Re-packaged as Jungle Viper?

Check out this Gi Joke.



Was this a genuine error or was this someone's re-packaging efforts?

Looks like an error, you should be able to tell by inspecting where the bubble meets the cardback, if the bubble has been removed.

Perhaps the JV is revealing his true identity! After all, Zartan is a master of disguise!

All jokes aside, I agree with racerguy76. Looking at the pic, it looks like an error rather than a re-pack.

To me, the craziest thing in this picture is seeing three pegs of POC together. I have two WM and two Zellers in my area, and all of them dedicate one peg to POC.

What gets me is the fact the pegs are full of POC

It was a fluke, this Zellers has been devoid of product for the longest time and suddenly they got a few shipments in. Filling 3 pegs but now they are all the shelf warmers. No Recondo and no Jungle Vipers.

Also barely got any wave1 in so Alley Vipers have been super scarce.
