    Sorry if this seems unnecesary but the other day I found this listing on Walmart.com for Siege Soundblaster: upload_2020-5-16_20-50-11.png
    As he is one of the last siege figures I need, I ordered him. A box from Walmart came today and since my brother received it, he tore the box to shreds but not the figure's box and he gave me this:
    371119D7-C6D4-4216-B4C7-E6B4EA72D08E.jpeg
    I checked the site again and nowhere does it say that it's an Earthrise or Starscream figure. I'm debating on keeping him but if I didn't, could I return it in a non walmart box? And if I keep him and want to actually buy Soundblaster, should I buy him again through Walmart?

    Any help is appreciated. Thank you

    1. You can absolutely return it in another shipping box (assuming you're going to ship it back rather than returning it in a store).

    2. I would assume this was just a fluke, as I know a number of people have successfully ordered Soundblaster from Walmart (including myself). So you should probably get the correct figure if you order another one. I don't know if Walmart is good about replacements, so I don't know if it would be easier to request a replacement or just return it for a refund and order again.

    I recently ordered Soundblaster from Walmart also, tracking estimates it's arrival on 05/22. I'm curious to see what figure actually arrives now in light of this.

    Did you ever get a Soundblaster? I think I saw one at one of my Walmarts in my town lurking about.

    Hey man I understand. I'll keep an eye out though and if I happen to see one I can let you know.

    Since I don’t own the mold yet, I ordered Soundblaster. Added a $20 SS Bonecrusher (who should look good with all my Constructicons)
