It's a Hasbro error that I found at Walmart, lol No, just messing around one day and decided to see how easy it actually is to repack a Rise of Cobra figure. It's way too easy, don't need to remove the bubble at all. Just pull back or slit the tape on the sides near the bottom where it sticks out on the front, carefully open those sides up and then carefully pull up the front panel that is double-sided taped somewhat to the bubble and then stick your finger in between the card and the bottom of the bubble and pull out the whole tray. Switch figure or complete tray and slide back in and press the front panel back down and then retape the sides after you put them back into the slots and you're done. Way too easy and I'm surprised there isn't more repacks showing up on ebay as errors and so on.

Don't be modest. I was not only there at Walmart when the stockboy pulled this rare one of a kind error from the Hasbro box I have a friend at the factory in China that watched as the figure was inserted in the package.
This is your chance to own a true one of kind centerpiece to any Joe collection. DO NOT PASS THIS UP! Quote:

I could never do that SS, I'd be guilt riden the rest of my life knowing that I ripped off somebody like that. Sad thing is, there's probably someone out there who would beleive this is real from Hasbro and bid on it too.

OK, need some opinions on this.
I have broken down my 25th Arctic Cobras into 2 squads right now but don't know if this would be the best way to sell them or if listing them as singles would be better or the whole lot together? Squad 1: Scrap-Iron Snow Serpent Officer Snow Serpent Heavy Weapons Trooper Snow Serpent (x6) Squad 2: Snow Serpent Officer Snow Serpent Heavy Weapons Trooper (x2) Snow Serpent (x6)

Since when do you sell stuff? Are you having a liquidation sale to make room for 2010? You're overstocked and you're passing the savings onto us?
