I ordered the Battle Below Zero set online because my Toys R Us either hasn't gotten it or they're too stupid to restock after it sold out like all the other Joe stuff that I have seen. Here's what arrived today:
I hate repackers and was NOT expecting this since I bought it from TRU.com. Ugh. Just had to vent.

Today I saw two of the outnumbered 3 packs where the figures had been swapped out for their 25th counterparts. Both packs looked like they had not been tampered with. I would have taken a pic but my phone didn't have enough storage at the time I was in the store.

Strangely appropriate for this thread. The headlines Paul came up for the articles are pretty hilarious too.

Sorry to have to say this, but who can tell if it isn't a staff member repacking/stealing the figures in the back. Taking it out of the box, before its on the rack, swapping the figure, then putting it on shelf for someone to buy. Im sure those Star Wars figures above cant all have been returned, without a second glance from the staff member noticing.
On an another note, has anyone seen any repacked figures in international countries, like Europe, in any other toy line.

On a positive note I returned a masterpiece prowl recently to TRU. The one I bought originally had a large ding on the box, but I bought it anway thinking I wouldn't be able to find any later. Turns out I was able to get one with a good box so I returned the first one. The lady doing the return took a long look at the photos on the box and opened the box and carefully examined everything and compared the item to the back of the box and made sure all the accessories were intact. Now that I think about it I don't recall seeing many repacks at this particular TRU anymore.

I have never noticed any re-packs at a TRU, they are ALWAYS at WM or Target, I've even seen some at Walgreens. Its been awhile since a RP has been seen around here.

I find TRU employees are way more vigilant when accepting returns.

Thank goodness I haven't seen any repacks in the wild around me. I think it's just a small number of dirtballs that actually do this. There are less then 10 Joe collectors in my town of 180,000. So it's been easy getting stuff and thankfully I haven't come across this crap.

Not sure where to put this, or if it's already been talked about, but I just came across it and it looked fishy….
