Factory production goof!? Arya Stark head on Robb Stark body

Postby Legion Of Boom » Sun Feb 09, 2014 5:25 pm

Found this at a Barnes & Noble in Sacramento last night...thought it was interesting and it looks pretty cool to me! Does this type of error happen a lot?

That's...unfortunate. And hilarious! I've seen plenty with mistaken paint jobs and missing limbs but that one is new to me!

Oh...got that at B&N too, first time I've seen these out. Didn't know FUNKO was doing this too. Just picked up the Daenerys, they had Ned, The Hound and White Walker there.

I wanted to post a pic but don't know which section to post....lol!

I saw the Legacy figure too and was confused. Maybe B&N broke street date?

Haha, what a goof that is! It's crazy how these things happen, I have heard a few stories on here now of this sort of thing happening. I have experienced it first hand with my V for Vendetta having a messed up backwards hand. You'd think the QC checks being done at the factory might be a little more thorough.

This is pretty funny but someone awhile back found one of the TMNT turtles with a swapped head/body.

It's possible this was a return, and the previous purchaser swapped heads for I'm assuming to make a "custom" figure.
AKA Toy Aisle Trolling

This is quite common with other toys/action figures; people buy an exclusive figure, or expensive figure, remove it from the packaging, and replace it with a cheap figure and repackage/return to the store for a refund. Majority of the store clerks have no idea what the original is suppose to look like.

And with Pop!s being easy to remove from the boxes, it's quite possible

The swapping expensive figures for a cheap one doesn't apply here since both are common pieces...but I get what you're saying. If it was a return then the person did a great job swapping heads out.

I think this one looks pretty cool...would've been better in an Arya box.

This is the best production error yet. I personally think Arya looks really cute in that outfit.
