So I just bought the BAF Jericho and the Paul Bearer head and urn weren't in the package!
I don't know if someone did a great job of removing them without messing things up or if it was a factory error, but it's incredibly frustrating.
I'll have to take it back tomorrow.
I mostly just wanted to vent to people who will understand my pain, but to give it more purpose, has anyone else run into this yet?

When ever there is a BAF figure I always look at the package for a good couple of mins at least to make sure the parts are in there.

That sucks. I just ordered them online and would probably lose it if the pieces were missing. Sorry to hear that brother.

That? No, luckily. But I did encounter the BAF Bearer series tonight for the first time. They had 3 out of the 4, no Neville. Ended up walking out with The Boss (FINALLY) and Marvel Legends Spider-Gwen.

If it didn't look tampered with, then it probably wasn't. I haven't encountered this with Mattel, but three different times with NECA there have been flat-out missing pieces on the toys. Recently bought Marcus Fenix from Gears of War and the shoulder pad was missing. Nowhere in the box. The shoulderblade was missing from my Dog Alien and I had to return it, and I recently I saw the Celtic Predator at TRU. It had the best paint apps on the mask, but when I looked at the hand it was gone and it wasn't anywhere in the bottom of the box.

Mofo's always theiving. I ALWAYS hold that thing up to the light to see if there's parts in there. ALSO I always open it, IN STORE, right near the register so in case some turd got crafty and stole the parts but put some garbage back IN (parts from other toys, something, which I've SEEN) I can immediately prove it wasn't me and get my damn refund!
I was lucky enough to order mine a month or so back when they first showed up on Walmart's site, but have seen the in store ones ravaged. SAVAGES!

things like that make me sad to be an adult toy collector. at the walmart near my girlfriend's house, every single baf piece and title belt had been swiped from every wwe figure in the aisle. people in that area aren't even creative enough to repack and return after buying...they just straight up thieve.

I've seen the set a few times and the BAF pieces are always stolen.

Yeah out of the 10 I've seen at retail, minimum 6 had parts taken out. Sucks to have to look in depth every time you go hunting but these damn thieves.

I feel this should prompt Mattel to, ya know, not do BAF sets. Just put the toy out. They're them in a battle pack or make them individual as an exclusive if they're concerned suited guys won't sell. BAF sucks.

BAF sucks. Theyre more concerned about making everyone buy 4 figs, to get the one thwy want. Its smart business and its fun for kids to hunt down |

I would think you'll struggle to make this wash, I for one would not believe you if I were the store worker. No offence of course

God that sucks. This is why I made it an effort to always triple check that the things were in there.
Hope things go smooth with Customer Service

That's especially disconcerting about the NECA figs, I was thinking about branching out to them (I never played God of War, but that Kratos is pretty sick). I must be in the minority, but I've had good luck thus far on hunts and through Ringside, for that matter. Just a quick cursory check of the box, bada-bing. Finally, looking at the new TNF and BAF series, it LOOKS pretty easy to get the accessories out if I wanted to steal them. The way they're on the bottom like that, it wouldn't take much effort for the determined. |

The two newer figures missing pieces were two out of probably 20 or more NECA figures that I've bought in the last year or two. Generally the material is good quality now. The old Neca stuff would breakore frequently. The new stuff is more solid. I don't have a complaint in the world about the Kratos figure, that is one incredible toy. Just look the figure over thoroughly and all should be okay. |
