Agreed on Road-Pig!!  I am in Halton Hills and the last two walmart visits had the 60th Anniversary Sniper and ParaTrooper both swapped for other crap figures.    The person at the return counter must be blind, or does give a crap (I assume the later).  Best part was the box of the Sniper was beat up and damaged, but was still full price!

So I haven't seen any figure swapping at Toysrus recently, probably because they changed their return policy on action figures.  Sadly Walmart is no the home of this scum.   Power Ranger figures and discount Marvel Legends are what are being stuffed into Classified window boxes.

I haven't picked up anything yet.  Halo jumper and Sniper are probably the only two that I didn't grab when they came out.

Hopefully the Amazon/Walmart/Toysrus of Canada don't see this as an opportunity to increase their price buy a dollar or two.

Amazon black friday deals are starting to show up for some classified figures.
and it isn't really worth mentioning but Toysrus.ca has also put items on "sale" making them slightly more than what they should be priced at normally.

I decided to plasti-dip the yellow Dragonfly tail wings.  Flat black looks better in my opinion.
The benefit of plasti-dip, is if I don't like it later I can peel it off without any lasting damage.

Haven't noticed that on mine, but I could easily see it breaking or at the least creating some unsightly stress marks in the plastic.  I opened mine once, and thought it was a nice addition, but clear plastic has bitten me too many times.  As for as the brittleness of plastic it goes clear then brown.  Would love to see Hasbro get out ahead if there is an issue and offer a simple solution for everyone - they have our contact address.
