Found the Walmart figures on the shelf, notice anything odd?

Two pegs full, all in the same condition.

Edit: No idea why the picture is sideways.

That’s going to make MOC hard...

I saw a shipper with most of the figures in it like that. I think the shipper is packed and shipped with the figures on the pegs, and that happens if the whole thing gets slammed around a lot during shipping.

Fixed it for you...

That must’ve been one pissed off employee stocking those figures.
I wonder which Joe Collector got on his final nerve?

I only want 1 of each to display, I hope they don’t all look like that when I find them.

The storm shadow i bought was EXACTLY the same way. The SE was fine though.

wonder if they came from the factory that way?

Why would they come torn/ripped from the factory?

I don't know but it's very odd all the ones in the photo are torn and i bought one, many states away, and it was the same.

Its most likely because the paper is crap and happened to get ripped when hung on the peg.
