Have you preordered any figures from online retailers outside of BBTS collector's grade feature? If you have, then you ARE, in fact, already buying things that you haven't looked at.

Ah yes, randomly opening toy packages you haven't even paid yet in a store then discarding the ones that you don't like. Guess i'm just lucky that figure swapping has never occurred in my place.

I've seen you announce as much for nearly every exclusive. I don't buy your outrage and the idea that a retailer take up your opening of packaging in-store with Hasbro is immature logic and an attempt to pawn off your potentially poor behavior on the actions and decisions of others. Why even put someone through some performative nonsense and force a confrontation, especially if you are already doing what you decry as intolerable?

Additionally, no one is in the habit of eating action figures, so your analogy of fruit falls flat. However, it does illustrate why we need to take measures to undo the damage already done; to make sure future generations get to enjoy fruit and fertile farmland.

That guy has no end to his complaints, does he? Tsk tsk. It must be so hard to make an alternative way in buying a toy but i guess complaining all day in a forum is way easier for a lot of people nowadays. Typical.
