Yep figure swaps. This is just like the "star wars variant" for the giant packs that was going around on eBay.

Yep. Re-packs.
It's just weird the re-packer wanted multiple TG 2pk Wolverines, and not the blk Hands. I wish someone would trade me an XMO Logan for a TG 2pk Wolvie. Any takers?

Plus, regardless of what's in the package, it's still a toy that a kid might want and from the correct (sort of) figure line, and they can see what they're getting. So it's not like it will be thrown out and be listed as shrink. Which is why you'll see them go right back on the shelf even if you point it out to them. They can either take a loss on the item, or realize that it can still be sold to a kid that really wants that figure. It's far easier to accept the swapped out figure back than for the customer to potentially make a scene, getting the manager involved, who might agree that it's easier to just take it back. It's easier to take a loss on a small amount than to deal with the hassle and a customer who might never come back. (You have no way of knowing how much this customer is spending on legitimate purchases) But yeah, putting it on Ebay as a variant is just dumb. |

It's definitely a swap but I dont blame target employees- they're super cool about returns nad some ass is taking advantage of their policy of good customer service.

It's brutal to the collector who knows the difference and can spot the mistaken and has now missed out on a wanted item to be added to their collection. To the kid who's 6 and doesn't know the difference the kids happy, the store and hasbro aren't out $$ and 3 days later a new shipment arrives.
