Not overly impressive, but got to have it. I wish the hood came already loose from the head, but getting it off should be too much of a problem.

Error by lowanbing, on Flickr
Here's one i found at WalMart in Bonnie Lake Wa. the other day... lolz... Walked it over to the toy manager (unpacking boxes with some other employees) and before i could say anything she said "That's the way it's supposed to be- that's how they all came"... Now, this should have been a simple "Hey- someone ripped you off, turn this in to loss prevention so no one buys this crap" But instead it turned into me arguing with Walmart employees for maybe 10min trying to explain this was Kylo Ren with a NECA 300 Immortal head (i only figured out the head in the last few minutes- it was driving me crazy trying to think what it was) Showed her the picture on the box- showed her the missing Axe (there was a couple generic swords thrown in the box that they assured me were the legitimate pieces) Showed her the toy on Walmart.com Eventually she stopped responding and just said "Everyone of them was the same and she had unpacked them herself" I wanted to say "You're full of shit you stupid fuck!" But instead told her she has a team member then that is getting into the cases because this is NOT right. Employee B looked at the box and said "Well there are no bubbles in the tape- if it had been tampered with then there would be bubbles..." I don't think I've ever actually shook my head and laughed at someone before... it was like trying to point out a basic math error in a workbook to a teacher and them insisting that if the book says 2+2=5 then that is the absolute truth... Eventually I just had to give up because it was turning into me ranting like a mad person while she just sat there shaking her head... As far as "Why do I care" (which someone on FB asked when i posted this) Because this is theft. and it's easily reported, and if it goes unreported either someone gets screwed buying this thing or the store never restocks because they will forever have one in stock that no one will ever buy... SMH.. Wow. A repack AND a headswap? That is the most effort I have seen in a repack theft. Usually it is just what ever figure thrown in the box. |

Speaking of part swaps- what is everyone planning on using for Cole/Reese/Macon? I hope we get another of them with alt head to give this one a home, but in the meantime I've just popped it on PX Deathstroke. I tried Nuke, but ther body just seems too large, so need something smaller. Maybe commando Killmonger?

No luck w/ the Caliban wave, yet. All of my Targets show "Out of Stock" on BrickSeek, so it's the waiting game for now. But I did finally pick-up Archangel from eBay. He was a hard one to find in my area.

Mmmm, Iron Doom.
Anything that builds up an ANADM display. Hopefully, since so many people are so adamantly against his very existence, he'll be easier to find here than the last few

I saw a youtuber by the name of mcucollector24 do the head swap with Nuke. It didn't look horrible from a distance. However up close, you can definitely see Nuke's neck is the same with as Cole's head.

Over the top effort swaps are the best.

The sad thing is that almost looks legit....or at the very least a really cool knock off.

interesting... looks like he just builds up layers of hot glue over the wire...
looking good. So here's my thing.. Marvel legends are ALL HASBRO... WHY THE F*%$ can't Hasbro Pulse just provide the supply for the current demand for figures?!?!? IT'S HASBRO!!! We should be able to order EVERY DAMN FIGURE they make...directly from them. Why do they not offer this service..
