    I don't suppose anyone has a spare Snout Spout they'd be willing to part with? It seems like that wave never made it up here.

    Are we talking about the toy being damaged, or the box / packaging that it comes in? Because Amazon is never going to care about the packaging. Collectors who want pristine boxs or cards will never rate a moment's notice for Amazon - so long as the item within that packaging is in good shape, you got what you bought from them as far as Amazon is concerned.

    We should get news tomorrow or the day after. Tomorrow is Walmarts things right? So with luck we could see packaged Moss Man images? I hope so.

    I dont get why these images resurfaced yesterday? Is there any solid news? Weve seen it rumoured and suggested for a while, but why has this custom/mockup image turned up again?

    It's popped up before?

    It was on the Instagram account of one of the more reliable leakers.

    Looks like Amazon UK is getting Duplico too. So it might not be so hard to get?

    Its not from Mattel. Its a custom from a forum or a group or something.

    Are there any indicators that Mattel is participating in the WalMart thing tomorrow?

    Don't be ridiculous, it's Walmart. It's definitely going to be a clusterfuck.

    Who’s the Mattel Creations exclusive and the blue and white guy next to Terroar? (Also, I’m not sure what Trap-Jaw variant that is. 200X, perhaps?)

    I don't think it'll be anything fancy. He's a deluxe figure so it'll most likely be a deluxe sized card with his extra head and the armor off to the side. He might be wearing the shoulder pads.
