Re: Toy Aisle Trolls

Saw that with the Thor and Valkyrie 2-pack as well, where some idiot took the newer Thor and swapped in the Thor from a basic release. I don't blame the customer service, it was hard for me to spot as well since the costume wasn't that huge a difference.

Re: Toy Aisle Trolls

Been awhile since anyone has posted here but the Marvel Legends figure swapping is still happening. Friday night I was at Walmart and found a pair of cloak and dagger where someone returned the dagger box with Agent Carter and the cloak was a clever kit bash. There was an employee in the aisle so I gave them to her and explained what was happening and she seemed quite blown away and sincere....curious to know if they end up back on the shelves though.

Re: Toy Aisle Trolls

Just the other day, some idiot collector returned a female Wolverine with the BaF (a giant Sauron wing/arm) missing. It's easy to miss, so again not too surprised that customer service didn't catch it. I reported it to the store manager and told them to check their security footage so they can blacklist this moron.

Damn. I would actually buy that, too. She is impossible to find out here in Barrie. Got a flood of Lady Deadpools and Pimp Hat Deadpools, but not a Laura Kinney to be found.

Re: Toy Aisle Trolls

There's been a flood of Lady Deadpools and Pimp Hat Deadpools at every TRU I've visited. WTF was Dwight Stall thinking when he thought to limit the Bishops, Wolverines, and Omega Reds over more DP? Once you get red-suited DP, that's basically all you need for most collectors.

Re: Toy Aisle Trolls

Saw yesterday that some had replaced a 6" Grand Moff Tarkin with a Director Krennic at my local TRU.

Re: Toy Aisle Trolls

This is easily the most effort i have ever seen. Still terrible though.

Re: Toy Aisle Trolls

That is some effort there. Instead of buying 1 figure they'd take 50 steps to get it this way instead.

I didn't know people valued their time so poorly...
