You will NEED to sit down before clicking through to witness the horror we did. We have no less than 15 images of pure theft to show you. JTA reader Greg B. sends us one incident after another of blatant theft and he assumes that this is the same thieving guy/gal doing this because it happens frequently and in a remote area. I need to find out more, but I would like to know why no one has done something about this or perhaps brought it to a district manager's attention. I think something like this would warrant a call to Hasbro customer relations. You will shutter. Be afraid. Be very afraid. Hasbro, you have all but ignored the fan sites, but if you're still reading, please do something about this.... even if it's simple staff education.

Hey Paul,

I just saw your recent article with the swapped arm Luke Skywalker. That figure is actually at one of the Wal-Marts I frequent. There has been an idiot who has been swapping figures locally since this Spring. His trademark, at least for 4 inch figures, appears to be stapling bubbles to hardbacks and replacing accessories with trash (i.e. piece of a straw instead of a lightsaber). I’m sure this clown is the culprit behind the 6 inch Luke as well. I have attached multiple photos of the swaps I have seen since Spring, at various stores in my area. Feel free to use the pics in your article if you’d like. Take care!

- Greg
