Rather than destroying the toys, they should be given to charities for children whose parents cannot afford knock-offs, much less Hasbro's ever-rising prices. The holiday season is coming up; perfect chance to do this.
*Sigh* Suddenly Hasbro reminds me of the seagulls from Finding Nemo......

What else could destroyed mean? Why waste money paying people to destroy the KO product when you can give it to toys for tots, write it off as a loss, and let the kids do the destruction for you. KO's last what 1 week out of the box? Unlees they're good KO's then they be destroyed shortly after Christmas.
Now if we can get Hasbro to go after the guys making the accurate G1 KO's then we'll be all set.

As for these Big Lots KO I'm sad to see them go. They made for good fillers in my War Within collection. I'm glad I got mind before this happened.
I think Hasbro makes enough money without taking way opportunities for fans to get TFs they won't make!

Well if you wanted your collection to have credibility you'd hunt down originals.
May take some time, may take some money, but at least you can say with pride that your collection is GENUINE.
