    Well, it's not exactly cool that the thread is still alive and well but it is in a morbid kind of way. I recognize that sword but I have no idea who or what it goes to. The only thing that kind of bugs me is that usually people who put the effort to retie down figures are people who have never done this before and are taking a bunch of precautions or someone who has done this before but store policies ramped up and they was forced to put in more effort. Either thought is not a good prospect.

    I have to wonder how many toys get refused refunds because they've been swapped vs the ones that don't.

    No it is, I remember it very clearly from when I got the Trendmasters version as a kid. It always bugged me it was asymmetrical so I never used it. :lol

    I spotted this beauty today. I believe a toy swapper has entered my area since it is the second one in a week.

    Hahaha thanks carlos. I never seen this guy and had me fooled for a second. I thought I missed the news on a new wave xD Screenshot_2019-07-09-13-22-39-1.png

    and on a side note. We always dog on people working retail who take these things back, especially when they are clearly not the figure on the package. But holy shit. I was returning an unopened siege soundwave with receipt at Walmart and this lady was almost not going to take it because of the battle damage. Haha I'm like no, look at the package and she sat there for like 5 minutes turning it around back and forth, checking. She very reluctantly gave me my money back but I could tell she was still unsure. xD

    So, someone took the time to poorly repaint a Bumblebee figure just so they could steal a $20 figure.
    Pitiful.

    Found these two at a local store. Seems more general incompetence than malice

    it's funny because deluxes were, what, $15 during aoe? so after buying the paint and the bumblebee, he pretty much just... broke even with reflector.
