Hey guys, My g/f and I came up to orlando this weekend to celebrate her b-day and during one of her naps I snuck out of the hotel room and swung by TRU. I saw atleast 4 cases worth of that new wave 2 revision that has been sighted by fellow tankers. As I browsed thru the figures I spotted what seemed to be an ordinary Serpentor. But after further inspection I spotted something odd. His stand didn't say "Serpentor"...It read "Dreadnok Torch"! My first thought was that someone had bought it switched the stands at home and returned it. So I started to very carefully look for evidence of tamperment. I looked and looked at every corner and edge of the blister but couldn't find any signs of any wrong doing. I was puzzled and wasn't sure if I should purchase a possible hoax figure. Long story short, the following pictures should tell you how this story ended.
Feel free to leave comments on the legitimacy of this figure. |

Factory errors arent variants....but on ebay they bring a huge penny.

Seems like it could be a legit factory error. I mean, how would this scenario benefit someone? I can't figure the angle.

I traded my stinger drivers to Mindbender MD and one of their stands had the name right but on the topside it had the joe logo on it.
