I can't believe people still think there is a chance that these things occurred in the factory.

I think he means how some of the wolfhounds have figures that still have the old ROC logo on them instead of the new POC logo. Apparently a few people have seen this (I haven't)

Just because the tape looked "intact" to you doesn't mean that it wasn't tampered with.
These re-packers are a shady group. They are theives, so they knpw exactly what to do in order to cover up the perfect crime. I bet that the Wolf Hound was gone as well and probably replaced with the Rockslide. I once bought a Target exclusive Python Patrol Conquest x-30. The tape looked fine but in the box was this... I think that it's highly unlikely for a toy company to accidentally put a figure from last year in a box from this year because they wouldn't have that figure inside the factory any longer. |

This brings up the whole repacking thing. People who repack are scum and are stealing....but (and I'm not referring to the OP) people who BUY items that are obvious repacks thinking that they are "rare variants" are S T U P I D. At least once a week I see someone post (not limited to Joes and not limited to this site) that they bought a vary rare version of say "Snake Eyes" but in the package is a ROC Neo Viper minus all accessories. Despite the HUNDREDS of people who are very knowledgeable INSISTING that it is a variant....they refuse to believe it and try to sell it on ebay for HUNDREDS... |

If they are buying something just to ebay it, that makes them almost like a scalper doesn't it? I wonder how many scalpers get fooled this way because I know from a few run-ins with them that alot of them really dont know much about Joe. |

No, see he was talking about seeing a repack, but he had previously bought two Wolfhounds to get the two versions of the figure. Besides, he also already posted that he was talking about the variant as being the one with the ROC logo. |

I see... I mis-read. I think I'd rather have the POC driver than the ROC driver, despite it's probably rarity. I like the POC Joe logo better than the ROC one.
