Buy Legends at TRU, get a GIFT RECEIPT. Buy some Legends at Target for $10 or less on clearance. Return to TRU with gift receipt!

And even if we buy doubles to try to keep MOC, you still have to send the receipt AND the UPC codes from the package...meaning you can't keep them MOC or try to return or resell. AND.....you have to send $5 for shipping. WTF kind of ripoff is this??? I usually don't pitch fits on here, but I'm an elite completionist, and I must get this figure. But I am going to kick myself for paying $65 for a McMahon figure. That's the price of a brand new video game! lol...

Love the fact you don't have to buy all four figures at the same time. Cause I honestly don't think my TRU has four figures I want.

I may actually try to get 4-5 so I can keep 2 and sell the rest to guys outside of the country.

I like that figure, but I'm in the same position as a lot of others. My TRU doesn't have 4 figures I need or that are even worth buying. Hopefully this promotion is a sign of TRUs receiving major Mattel shipments soon. ACTUALLY, I think it's just a way to get us to buy the old stuff, that way TRU has room TO get the new stuff

looks like a pretty good figure actually, nice headscan/likeness. although the hair looks rather too dark in color.
i'm happy with my Jakks Vince (plus i live in england and UK TRUs i'm sure won't be running the promotion...) so i won't be getting this, but its a great idea from mattel and a way to encourage more sales and reward collectors with more obscure characters in figure form.
let's get a referee charles robinson figure next mattel!!

wait. i never got a mail figure exclusive. will i recieve it MOC? The fine print says no guarantee. No exchanges on non mint packages. They are keeping track of delivery confirms. Hasbro/Kenner has been doing this for 30 years, never had a problem.

You have to cut the bottom of the packaging and send it in along with the receipts. Well you would still have 4 Legends figures, you'd be buying 8 total and returning 4 to TRU

Hopefully that WM27 set will come out in August (like the 26 set last August) and I can buy all those Elites, then I can redeem the UPCs. However, I don't think those SKUS count as a qualifying figure, even though they are elites? Its confusing...

It would be nice if TRU had another promotion where you got the Legends 2-packs for free during this promotional period.

What if:
I go to TRU and purchase 4 Legends figures and get the gift receipt to go along with the original. Then I go to Big Lots/Target and buy 4 Legends figures on clearance. THEN go back to return the figures I just bought at Big Lots/Target on the cheap with the gift receipt I just got through my first visit at TRU?
Can I do that or am I missing something?

WTF?
I've had quite a bit of brandy, but I'm sure you're still out the cost of the four figures you picked up on clearance.
Why not just buy 4 figures you want from TRU during the qualifying 2 month period?
