Found a Firebat yesterday@ Target...snatched it up and brought it home...made space for it then grabbed it to open...Firebat was broken, 1/2 its missles gone, blueprints and stickers gone...and the A.V.A.C. was ARAH A.V.A.C!!!! super pissed!!! brought it back, got my money back and went to KMART Glenmont...found one there, but AVAC's legs were Major Bludds!!!! REALLY super pissed!!!! i hope this isnt the actions of a Tanker, cause this is low...(DID find a second Fang/Claw set there untampered...)

Some people are just losers, willing to trade their integrity over plastic toys. Sucks that you had to run around like that.

the Firebat was missing 1/2 its missles, their were stickers on it in the wrong spots, the wheel thats on the back fin was missing, ine of the guns on the underbelly was gone, the other broke in the box...stand stolen and the wing was flooby...one loose limbed 15 year old, scaped up figure does not make up for it, esp @ 16+ dollars....

so how did you not see this before you got it? i mean the box is a big clear piece of plastic. Seems like you would have noticed the extensive amount of damage, parts rattling around and a completely different figure?

Well, the only thing I noticed was the rattle, but i saw one of those twist ties moving...as for the missles, they were from the wing that wasnt facing the window...and the figure, unless you stare at it, looks the same...like i said, i grabbed it quick, and walked of...THAT much is my fault...as far as the 2nd one, the legs may be the same, but these were brown Bludd legs..

I see this kind of thing all the time but far worse. There is a WM nearby that always has returned goods with beat up Joes from the 80's in the comic packs and vehicle packs. They are used and abused, it's bad anyway you cut it but at least put in mint figures for crying out loud. This is fairly common in SW too.
Always look before you buy. There are so many bad paint ops in the 25th line you really have to check. To me nothing is worse than finding something you looked for for a long time only to find lop sided googly eyes. At least you got your money back. |
