So over the weekend the wife and I went shopping and one of the last of the many stops was a local Meijer dept store and so i wonder back to the toy dept and from a glance and just saw the Blurr package and was ex-static to find him. So, not really paying attention to whats inside, i headed to the cashier lane to check out and something told me check this one time to before you buy it and i looked down and saw Acid Storm repacked into Blurr's card!!! I was sooo freakin pissed off and was thinking "i would love to get my hands on this guy who did this" and the sad thing about it is, Meijers employee are too stupid to notice anything different from what's inside to whats on the box. Anyway, just thought of my fellow Transformers collectors out there and decided to post this and be careful when buying anything, cause you'll never know who will repack what next??

Toy swapping like this is actually quite common. Target, Walmart and Toys 'R Us, doesn't matter what store. It's so bad TFwiki has an article about it:
Toy Swapping
The replacement item can be anything by the way, down to a wasp's nest and a set of 3 tomatoes.

I think I'll let the wiki article speak for my feelings on this...
Some people are obscenely self-entitled douchebags.
Not caring about scale since 1984. Just like Hasbro.

Hey! I actually will pick him up if I found him. Save some money from evilBay rip-off. Okay, I have Blurr already and don't have Acid Storm. I will be very pissed too if I were you.

I'm amazed that you actually got all the way to the register without looking at the figure itself. A green jet instead of a blue car would shout out to me.

Not to make lite of the situation but I have seen a Delux ironhide packed into a voyager payload box at wal mart, a 07 movie swindle packed into a Arcee package and a scout hardtop packed into a barricade delux package. I have brought all 3 to the attention of the store manager, not just a employee.Each time they have this look of "Ummmmmmmmmm....~crickets~" I just tell them they should keep a eye on there returns people because in all honesty it just makes the store look plain and simple..Stupid...

Yeah i know, and feel like a fool for getting all the way there and then realizing it, but i know getting all the Christmas shopping done and my wife distracting me, didn't help me either. I guess i was in LA-LA land if you know what i mean.

I have neen collecting star wars for the past 10 years I saw it all the time with clones. I always got a kick out of it.
I will give extra credit to a local Target employee, who was a young girl. I returned some Deluxes and she checked and pulled on the bubble of each. Then she threw them all into a basket across the room like they were a handful of poisonous snakes.
