    I’m kinda new to interacting with the fandom, so what is everyone’s view on opening cases of product while they are waiting to be stocked? Like for example, at Walmart the cling wrapped pallets of boxes that sit in the middle of the aisle? And let’s say, hypothetically, someone saw a case of kingdom leader, voyager, deluxe, and core class with a week 51 sticker on the boxes just waiting to be freed from their plastic and cardboard prison? If said person were to wait for the stock person to walk away and open say the voyager box, would that be considered kosher or seriously not cool?

    asking for a friend....

    I think most stockers think it is not cool. I say, they would already be on the shelves if that person was doing their job! ;)  Go for it!!

    If they are still in boxes tomorrow afternoon when I swing by after work, I'll snag some. This Wal-mart is notoriously slow at putting out inventory.

    If no one is around, I'll cut shrink wrap and open cases. If I see the stocker, I'll ask if it's ok. I've found that most of the time, the stocker is cool with it and will want to open the case for me.

    I feel as long as you're not a nuisance, polite and clean up after yourself, it's cool and no harm, no foul. At the end of the day, the items were going to get unboxed, stocked and sold. So you're just speeding the process up.

    So for a change of pace. If anyone is looking for them. Walmart on 90 in Broussard had a full set of Wave 2 of the AEW Unrivaled figures yesterday. Well I should say a nearly full set, I grabbed MJF and Mox.

    Went back to Central Walmart today. They put the shipping boxes on the shelves but didn’t bother to open them. I figured it was fair game at that point. They had I case of each class size. 1 Optimus primal left. Full case of deluxes minus 1 blackarachnia, plenty of Ratraps, Vertebreaks, and core OPs. Didn’t touch the leader case so it should be a Trex Megs and reissue ER OP

    In my many years of collecting I have opened many boxes that were on the pallets and neatly taken what I wanted. However there are dickheads that rip boxes and scatter toys everywhere. Not cool if you do that.
