I'd say a return or old stock found in the back. Rare but not uncommon. I've come across foil Zartan, Snow Job, Flash, Vipers and Serpentor all within the past six months or so.

Who is "we"? i dont recall the op stating he was only refering to wave 1 figures as the odd find. i do believe it is clear he is refering to 25th carded figures in general

I picked up a color change face Zartan card, Flash, SE, and a couple others all on the 25 foil. My Wally and Tar-no-get both have some. New stock too. The pegs have been bare. I swear I think they have been stock piled in back.

It WAS odd to see *3* Wave 1 and 1 Wave 2 figure MOMC in the store. I believe TRU scans the actual figure's unique barcode so you couldn't return XX figure if you bought YY figure.. and one has to assume the receipt would have expired by now for those figs..

I checked my stash. I the other two I picked up were wave 2 Beachhead and wave 3 Sgt Stalker. I dont think there is anyway these could be returns. There was also CC, Cobra Officer, and Cobra trooper on the 25th card too.

LOL. I just experienced something similar when I went to one of my local K-marts this morning. They had a fresh case of Wave 1 Clone Wars figures with the dirty Rex and dirty Clone Troopers, and to make things even more weird the packaging had Spanish writing all over it.
Weird. There must be like a gateway to an alternate universe in each stockroom where old toys get sent for a time and come back a year later. LOL. |

I found this today at my Target (where I work) It's ironic coming off the heels of this thread
