Raginspoon has casts of them, IIRC, in his sale thread.

Morning JOes, So I just received an Assault on Cobra Island set I bought off Ebay, Recondo is one cool looking fig, I always liked him as a figure. I really only bought the set for Recondo, Outback, and Altitude. So the other four figs might become fodder for something.
Anyway hows it going for everyone today?

Eh, im takin what they're given 'coz i'm workin' fer a livin'!
Seriously though, i'm doing ok. Stopped by TRU and two of my friendly neighbor hood scalpers were there. they snagged all the new SW Vintage figs and the CW deluxe figs (left the obiwan and anakin ones though, but took the mando on speeder, plo koon on speeder, and cad bane on speeder) was kinda pissed about it..but then when they left this little guy brings a box of CW figures out and looks at me and says "Man, i thought they'd never leave!" Totally.made.my.day! So i got a pre vizsla, a greivous, and an aurra sing. |

Awesome dude! When I worked at Wal-Mart as an Assistant Manager I was over the toy dept for about 6 months, and everyday two guys who were Hotwheels scalpers would come in and they would actually open up the cases on the stock carts, so after a few days of becoming irritated with this, I stopped taking the cases out, not like the 1000 cars on the pegs were going anywhere so I wasn't concerned, after a couple days they asked if we have gotten any new cases in, I told them when the peg warmers sell then I can put out new inventory. They didn't buy any peg warmers and it was a good three weeks before I let the department manager put out a new case. It was fun!

Ahh, we used to have a scalper here (went out of business i believe) who used to buy up the pegwarmers on his credit card and then buy the new stuff they put out, then return the pegwarmers like a week later. My buddy worked returns at target, and said that it was so aggravating but his manager wouldn't/couldn't do anything about, saying that it's his right to return merch as long as it's done so in compliance with Target's return policies.

Scalpers have and know all the tricks, we had a scalper try and return some Starting lineup figures like four years after the line ended. I laughed so hard at the guy, of course our inventory system didn't recognize the SKUs anymore, he tried telling the customer service lady that he just bought them at the Wal-MArt like 1/2 hour away a week ago, so I got called up the the return desk, he started telling me the same story, I said, I'm sorry sir, but unless you have a receipt there is nothing I can do, well he started to get irritated and mad, and tried to state his case. So I pulled him aside and said listen, I collect action figures for a hobby, I've been collecting for nearly all my life, I know the SLU line was ended four years ago, so there is no way you just bought these. Well after that his story changed and that was it. He left with his figs and probably tried returning them at a different store.
