OK, this one is for the record books. We encountered an unfortunate case of "vandalism" at our local Walmart this morning. Almost every single The Clone Wars figure in stock was torn open (and we imagine subsequently taped back together by a Walmart employee). We checked a few over and couldn't see anything missing from the packaging, but why would someone do this? Is it a disgruntled collector who can't afford the figures any longer? Or is it a Walmart employee trying to tick off collectors? Or maybe it's just a kid with parents who don't love him. We don't know. It's a shame because most of the Barriss Offee wave was there. It never ceases to amaze us that we will be treated to a new retail experience when it comes to Star Wars collecting. We guess we haven't seen it all. It's bad enough the stuff is impossible to find and then when we do find it, it's vandalized? Click through for a large picture.
