Unknown Power Core Combiner?

I recently visited Walmart and noticed a different 5 pack PCC with a human commander. I have checked here, both TF wikis and Hasbro's sites and cannot find a picture of this or a name (unfortunately I forgot the name). Very different type of set. Again, I have no idea what it is and cannot find it on the internet. Is this a new toy or is it more common than I think and don't know it?

A human commander?? Uh...no.

There are no PCC sets such as that. Humanoid? Yes. Human? No.

My guess is that you either looked at the wrong item, or someone returned it with an action figure in it's place.

And no, Wal-Mart wouldn't double check, because they're worthless.

My guess is someone just wanted the commander so they repacked the set with some sort of action figure and returned it.

I don't mean to fan the flames of fan hate or anything, but I often find the pictures of repacked returns unbelievably funny, and I just the other day FINALLY saw the one of the hornets' nest someone put in the Classics Ironhide packaging, and I still haven't stopped laughing. I don't care if that makes me a horrible person, it was durn funny, so go on and moralize at me, everyone. I;m laughing too hard to hear you.

I think El Duque is right, it was probably repacked with a military soldier action figure before being returned...stupid people. And no Autobot032 and noodles2go, I'm pretty sure I can remember whether or not it was a Transformers product. Transformers are one of only like three things I look at at Walmart alltogether, like Autobot032 pointed out, they suck.

I was just joking with a play on words, since power rangers do sometimes come with connectible parts. I believe it was the more likely event someone repacked the box with a g.i. joe or something.

Seconded. After thinking about this last evening, I guess it's not too hard to shove a human action figure into the space in the 5 pack package and have it appear legit. I'd be interested in seeing how this one worked out.

Sorry, no pics. But I believe it was a Combaticons set with the soldier figure, so it sort of looked legit and kind of blended in.
