Has anyone found any errors by Hasbro where they package a Cobra stand with a Joe figure or a G.I. Joe stand with a Cobra figure? The name on the stand is correct but the faction is wrong.
I was just at a TRU and I saw an Ace vs. Wild Weasel comic 2-pack that had a Cobra stand under Ace with his name printed on it. This is obviously a factory error and not a variant or re-packaged figure. I would have bought it and sold it on ebay if I was into making money on these, but I'm just into collecting for the fun and enjoyment. The worst part about it for me was that I finally found an Ace figure that didn't look too bad. I have one already but the paint app on his hair messed up and I've been looking for a suitable replacement. I was so happy to finally find one that I liked, but I was upset when I saw the Cobra stand with his name on it, so I left him behind. |

I know it used to happen a lot with the 30th Anniversary Star Wars stands. You'd get a figure with the correct name, but he'd be on the stand for the wrong film.

My Snow Job came with a Cobra stand. Was tempted to sell it on eBay as a variant.
