I went to Walmart tonight, and I saw the Elite Shield. One of the boxes had a thrashed looking side, and I was like "Did someone steal the figure?" I look inside and the figure and it's accessories are intact. About a minute or so passes as I'm looking at the figure and I notice it's the basic Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins, but they left the accessories in the box. Sorry I don't have any pictures, it just makes me wonder, why did they leave the accessories?
What weird switched out figures have you seen?

People are losers with figure swaps. That said personally I don't get some of the accessories. What good is the camera with Ambrose? He can't hold it. You need a hand like the open hand they give the guys with the Triple H arms, but even then they have to hold the camera upside-down, because it is a left hand.

Sounds like the infamous switcharoo to me.

People are scumbags with figure swaps. That said personally I don't get some of the accessories. What good is the camera with Ambrose? He can't hold it.

I honestly don't know. I figured it would just edit into one of those emoti-con things.

Between swappers, scalpers, and Mattel's shitty ( other than Holidays) distribution, it sure is hard to be a collector now a days. I saw 3 swaps the entire 15 or 16 years I bought JAKKS WWF/e figures... Now with Mattel, I see that a week!

I'm starting to think these people swap figures just for fun.

I've seen a switcharoo at least twice in my life.

It's actually quite pathetic if you ask me. If you can't afford it, walk away. I've browsed around and never even once considered stealing a figure, no matter how much I wanted it. I just don't understand.

I just don't understand. Some people get a thrill from stealing things, even if they don't want it. I don't understand it.
