I went to Gamestop once and I found a LC Prism Break with both arms fallen off. I didn't buy it since I didn't know errors would become rare.

Also, these aren't errors, but my Walmart is STUPID when it comes to repackaging items. I have seen loose figures sitting on the display, and I know i isn't owned because the code and card are next to it. Not to mention they always tape the wrong character to a back spread, like a Zoo Lou on a Drobot cardboard part.

It is shameful...

Oh. Like I said, I feel really stupid...

For factory errors, I still see the loose characters at Wal-Mart. I would never steal; but I do know people who would.

That's a packaging error, but the glue essentially wears off on some packages. Factory Errors include mistakes on the figures.

I keep finding figures opened on my portals at walmart..i guess some kid or something keeps opening them and putting them there. Oddly the wash/blast are both gone from the demo.

The first Series 2 Prism Break I bought had two right arms. That is, his left arm was the same as his right one, making it look strange since the elbow was pointing forward and stuff. I only noticed it when I unboxed it though. I got it exchanged as I didn't exactly like the look compared to the real pose. I suppose in retrospect those erroneous figures seem have additional value for some, but I don't think the Skylanders specialty/oddity collecting is a big thing in Finland (I now have the Crystal Clear Stealth Elf and Blue Bash as collectibles, but I reckon trying to sell them wouldn't be easy), and selling internationally is a pain due to postage (heck, it is within Finland itself already).

I found this one armed Barf Lava Eruptor yesterday at Kmart after they stocked their shelves. The package is sealed and no arm inside. My son went crazy for it.

That is such a cool pic! And it actually kinda works for the bird to be posed that way, even if it was an accident. Makes it look more sinister, rearing back and getting ready for a fight.

That is a nice catch. I do think it actually looks kinda nice that way.

I haven't really come across any real factory errors yet, at least with the figure. At my local Walmart I did see a Dragonfire Cannon pack that had no cardback, and a Shroomboom with only part of the cardback, buy I don't know if those were really factory errors, because they could have been returned or some person could have opened them. If this counts too, upon getting my S1 Whirlwind from Amazon, about 10 minutes after taking it out and doing absolutely nothing rough to it, the head fell off. It was weird, but funny, and it was nothing a little glue couldn't fix smilie
