Toy Aisle Trolls is a feature highlighting acts of vandalism to in-store toy items. If you find a ruined package, a stolen figure, a swapped-out figure, or any other such acts, take a photo (cell phone photos are fine if they’re not blurry) and email them to poe@poeghostal.com.

I don’t think I have sent this yet. I just saw your mention of a lack of submissions, so I thought I’d send it along (in my case, I just assumed you were probably bring inundated and sick of seeing them). Anyhow… Found at a Toys R Us in Long Island City, NY.

Ah… I thought it might have been an old Joe figure. A couple of points: I should have identified myself as "nerdbot" in the email; and that should have read "probably being inundated and sick of seeing them" (I hate typing on my phone).

Ya know… I’d have probably picked that up if I saw it.

What makes it funnier is that that makeshift Zartan is an official Hasbro release, and was a hot item in its day! Mind you, "its day" was something like thirteen years ago… http://www.yojoe.com/action/01/zartan3.shtml
