    Only saw one Target have them last month and bought them for my crew. Got G1 Astrotrain from Golf Mill last week, only two. A8857F4B-2B9E-4A73-8EFF-DF8DF4461E97.jpeg 304E6B9E-1DE6-4174-AAB3-5D840EECB391.jpeg This upc cardboard packaging swap was found at Golf Mill Target before Xmas. It rang up as a Seige leader. I showed an employee and they took it away. Target checked the camera footage and you’ve been reported to the police. Walmart across the street knows about your shenanigans too. You are hardpoor and shouldn’t be collecting.

    On Friday, Target in Bolingbrook on Boughton Rd had two Crosshairs and two Rungs. Nothing else new.

    I always wondered. When you return something, they have you on camera at the desk and if you paid by card, they have your info. How does this add up to anyone?

    I wish I would have said something now but after seeing all the figure swaps, I just assume they don’t care. Nice to see one employee do something when the person at the return desk obviously wasn’t paying attention

    nothing will probably come of it but it is cool to see action being taken. it is fraud but Im sure police have bigger issues to tackle then some middle aged neckbeard getting full refunds on toys they dont want.

    LOL. Had trouble getting a decent shot, just wanted to make it clear what it was.

    They also have two Smokescreens there (the two brown boxes in between).

    If anyone is near Vandalia Walmart they have Siege Voyagers for $15 a piece. Grabbed one of each 35th anv. Figures.

    Had a bunch of Soundblasters, both versions of Megs, and star scream. I got the last 35th prime and they have 1 Springer.

    Mixy is popping up here and there. Haven't seen one in person yet, ordered mine off amazon. Demolisher/Scavanger was just spotted sate side today, so he'll probably be showing up around here in the comming days or weeks.

    Elston Target. I've already got Scavenger and I'm not getting Shockwave, so I left both.
