yeah i figured the large boxes were taped. that is what happened to me with the slave 1. i have no clue how he got it open. not sure sliding around the box would help cause whoever cut a small hole in the bag so the pieces wouldnt get loose. im still so pissed.

yeah speaking of this kind of stuff. i bought an Xbox 360 at best buy that got the red ring of death. i sent it to microsoft for them to say they are not going to repare it because it had been tampered with. the said the warranty sticker has been removed and that the case serial numbers did not match the equipment numbers. this is 4 years after i had bought it at best buy. obviously i didnt know how to even take the faceplate off the xbox so i didnt tamper with it.

These boxes are not even glued. just tape. after i opened the set i tried to see if i could peal off the tape without ruining the box and it didnt seem to possible. it is just a real shame that people do this. it only raises the prices of the legos for the rest of us. as it is i will not pay full price for legos i wait until they go on sale. out of fear i opened up one of my larger sets last night that i purchased at the same walmart to make sure i had all the pieces. luckily it seemed everything was there.

i looked all over the internet and didnt find to many topics about this. i was recently taken by this scam from a box of star wars lego i bought at walmart. some of the star wars boxes i do not bother to open cause i collect and they are worth more unopen. i opened this one because it was a double and i enjoy building. Opened it last night to find bag 1 had a small opening in it. poured that bag out and noticed from the instructions that it was no where near enough pieces to make the first step. i was so infuriated. I bought another set at this same walmart at the same time. i guess i better open it to check if it is junk also. i cant believe anyone does this. if i was a little kid i would be even more upset im sure.
