Ducktales, WOO HOO!!!

I have a feeling Activision is picturing themselves as Scrooge McDuck jumping into his money bin, but the result is going to be more in line with what happened when Peter Griffin tried the same thing. I'll spare you the more graphic GIF.

Now they want collectors to buy duplicate Adventure Packs? Wow.

The Dragonfire pack was worse though, since the figures were both duplicates. Here at least you get new skins for everything in the pack. It does also mean that you can't just buy one of the cannons for $2 on eBay like I did later though...

Not quite. The train looks different. Only the piggy banks are the same I think - so not quite everything.. 75%. Still better than 33%.

While I was at Toys for Bob, I did mention this to them. They said that an Activision employee is trying to trace their origin, as these guys were almost definitely stolen from the factory.
