The Snake eyes that came with that crappy bike is actually pretty cool. I like mine.
I've seen this sort of thing in our target though. Saw one where some guy bought one of the Resolute 5 packs and returned it for cash with little crappy army corps figures in it or something. I took it up front and told the manager and he looked at me like __I__ Did it. *shakes head*

Ok, I was at the Wal-Mart nearest me, and there was a Gi. Joe 5 pack with Snake Eyes missing, he was gone along with all of his accessories and nothing was put in his place! All the other figures were there, Flint, Shipwreck, with all their gear, just an empty spot where SE used to be.
I was at another Wal- Mart today and found a Cobra 5 pack in the clearance section, Storm Shadow was missing, and again nothing was put in his place! I bought it anyway b/c I wanted the Chrome Viper, but what's goin on? Are the repackers getting lazy, or are they running out of figures to repack? |

I'm not making excuses for repackers, but Hasbro seemed to be asking for it with that Cobra 5 pack.
They make a decent Baroness and Viper, but make you have to buy a bunch of figures you don't need to get them. Add that to a flap down box and it's a repackers dream. If I was Hasbro, I would have replaced the useless Cobra Commander from that set with another Chrome Viper, and made Zartan a clear variant. An "Invisible Zartan, Baroness, and 2 Chrome Vipers, repackers would have let it be for the most part. |

Here's a new one. STICKER lifting.
Went to Zellers up here in Canada land, and saw a few tiger rattlers and python jets opened on the shelf. i examined them for missing parts, so maybe they were marked down, but in the 3 that were there, all tha parts were there except the stickers. the bags were ripped open. now i know i'm not the only serious joe collector in town, but i know there are no more than 5 of us, and 1 guy i ran into only collects vintage, this town only has less than 10,000 people, 1 zellers, 1 walmart. and with all the repacks i've seen up here, someone is BOUND to catch on sooner or later. Xmas is a BAD time though, Zellers is a disgusting store to start with with lose toys strewn around the shelves and isle floors. The busy season is just fuel to the fire. |

I wonder if the incidence of parts missing from boxes and cards would be reduced if Hasbro would sell individual accessories and sticker sheets for all the vehicles and figures. I lot of this stuff sounds to me like people that want only a certain item from a vehicle or figure, but do not want to pay for the whole thing.
