Ridiculous.I wish I worked at Kmart and got that return.That person would've been dealt with lol. It is possible, if caught, to be arrested for fraud. I wish a few stores would decide to press charges. This doesn't just happen with wrestling figs, so it would benefit the retail stores in the long run to make switching more dangerous for the criminals who do it. |

These are shocking... I'm so glad they don't happen over here (that I know of anyway!).

Oh man I was there yesterday. I was checking out if there was anything new and came across those. I laughed and just smh. At this point switches are all over the place and unless Mattel changes the package design nothing can be done about it. I could understand one but 3 , good Lord what the hell.

Stealing those horrible "plastic" shirts is a new low. That's what they all say until they are right there at the store doing the same thing, only never admitting to it. Between that and hitting up Mattel for vouchers i'm sure 90% of this board is guilty of some act. Just seems strange this wasn't an issue when Mattel first started, until these threads started getting made everyday, and now days it's all over the place. |

Yesterday I went to K-Mart on 8th Street & Broadway and saw two switches, Elite 16 CM Punk and Elite 17 Kofi Kingston
Elite 16 CM Punk was switched with a DA Punk Fig and the Shirt was switched with a Jakks WHC
Elite 17 Kofi Kingston was switched with an Elite 4 Kofi Kingston and the WWE Tag Team Championship was switched with a Jakks Tag Team Championship
My brother took photos of it.

This is just ridiculous. In person I have never seen a switch-a-roo, but I have seen titles stolen such a E15 Henrys title & E16 Diesels title

I went into a store one time and saw that an elite figure had been switched out with a human baby. A steal for anyone really, the baby has more articulation than the elite figure.

Just seems strange this wasn't an issue when Mattel first started, until these threads started getting made everyday, and now days it's all over the place. Man I remember the first switch I ever saw was a RA 25 Brian Kendrick head on a Paul London hooliganz pants I knew because it didn't have the HZ and it was the thinner stripes like the I wanna say RA 23 London Then I saw a mark Henry with no singlet in a booker T box. That one was bad The worst one I ever saw was an Elite 3 Santino. In the box was a R3 Maven body with a triple H head (circa 2006 Motörhead beard) with a green Barbie turtleneck sweater in the spot for the shirt.... Yeah that happened. |
