Weird thing happened today. I just wandered over to check Joe's section to hopefully find some new figures and lo and behold, AIRTIGHT! I couldn't believe it. The only figure on the peg. The weird thing was his packaging was sliced open at the bottom and the stand was removed. I don't think anything else was. I got 10% off though. Still had to have them. Has this happened to anyone else?

Now, it very well could have been a customer, but it sounds like a employee (stocker) could have done that. I wouldn't be surprised. It's so weird, I would think anyone would have just stolen the whole thing, why just a stand?

Wait. A nearly three year member found this to be worthy of their very first post?
But seriously, no. I have found figures missing various accessories, but never just the stand. That is highly strange. |

Slashed card/stolen stand was probably the only reason it was left behind... nice find regardless.
Never saw a sliced card with a missing stand before though; only sliced cards probably due to careless boxcutting when the stocker first opened up the boxes.

My theory is the name "Airtight" might have been found amusing to someone in a pornographic manner.

I know! I totally suck. I probably could have posted something different but I usually spend my entire time reading the posts instead of actually posting. To tell you the truth, I never bothered to learn how to even do it until now. Thanks for calling me out though, you made me laugh. I am now thrown under the bus for all to see. How can you ever forgive me?
