Money, violence, sex, computer graphics, scatalogical humor, racism, robots designed to be rednecks but given European accents, and maybe another sequel to the saga... what's not to love? TF m1, Revenge of the Fallen, Dark of the Moon and now Age of Extinction.

The I bought it/TF,didn't like it,so I returned it thread,

Post by Tigermegatron »

The,I tried it,didn't like it,so I returned it back to the store for a refund thread. TF toy related

Stores in america encourage returns if you are not happy nor satisfied with your purchase. regardless of what you bought. how you opened it,how you played with it & so forth. it's not illegial to return stuff as long as you have receipt or credit card or a drivers liscense.

Please don't turn this thread into mocking others who return stuff they don't like back at stores for a refund. please lets not judge those who return stuff as it's legal & within their rights to do so. as stores in america encourage returns & post huge signs saying: "we accept return if you are not satified with the item for whatever reason."

I recently bought the Target store exclusive $29.99 human allegiance Leadfoot toy. I noticed right away something wasn't right,when the car mode felt so light for a voyager sized TF toy.

I transformed the toy from car mode into robot mode. Wow what a awful
robot mode. for starters it's a deluxe sized robot mode. Second,it's
got almost no tabs/slots for the parts to lock into,I chaulk this up
to bad engineering & design sculpt. the waist clip doesn't lock into
the chest slot. the arms literally just hang their with no locking in
slots what so ever. The toy has the most ugliest head sculpt I have
ever seen.

IMHO,The only thing postive on this toy,is the robotic dog that
transforms into a targetmaster. even then it's not that great. I'm
just a really big targetmaster toy fan & I like almost any new mold
targetmasters.

About the only thing I can say positive about the actual leadfoot toy.
is the toy has a easy transformation process. it's not a hard toy to
transform by any means. transforming back & forth is quite easy.

Personally I think the best mode is the car for leadfoot. once you
start transforming it then it starts to go downhill. I did like the
push up & down side doot windows.

I did notice the robotic dog/targetmaster did have a few molded engine
parts on it's body. So like hasbro said at botcon 2011,they were going
to make the robotic dog transform into a engine but it was too big.
looks like they kept some of the engine parts designs into the robotic
dog/targetmaster thing.

I did like the fold down/up sun glasses the leadfoot robot mode had.
it just had a MP-09 Rodimus & HA $29.99 Jazz visor up/down vibe to
it vibe.

Waitaminnit-- isn't this the thing you became enraged over because you couldn't get it, tried to get people FIRED because they wouldn't give it to you... and now you've taken it BACK?! Good God, man! :roll:

The toy was garbage so I took it back for a refund.

Just because the toy had DRAMA in trying to buy it. doesn't mean I have to keep it after I tried it & didn't like it.

You've already received criticism for this kind of behaviour on ATT; I'll tell you right now you're likely to receive the same here.

Nobody else does this.

Yeah, not sure this is the kind of thing a grown human- even one who likes toys- should be doing. Kinda thing you've got to suck up.

So did you have to throw a tantrum before they'd let you return the thing, too?

In fairness, you cannot know a toy is bad if you do not have it.

That said, dammit, if I went through that much trouble to get a toy, even a bad one, you can bet your ass that I am going to keep it for at least a few years. It would be about principle dammit.

If anyone wants to keep stuff they bought & don't like,then that's your thing.

As for me i'll keep returning as much stuff I don't like as I want to. as it's within my rights as a customer in america to do so. since it's not illegial to return stuff for a refund & stores encourage refunds.

It's not illegial for me to pee on my floor, but it's not gonna make me any friends, either.

I dunno, maybe I don't buy enough TF toys to judge, but I'd never wanna be That Guy. "I am an adult and this child's toy did not meet my stringent quality standards! Return my money at once!!" There's probably kids that 'need' toys more than I do waiting in line.

Actually, it might be illegal to pee on your floor. (Health codes and all....)


Okay, I am going to defend TM on this.

-he does have a legal and moral right to return toys, or any consumer product. (In MA, there is a guaranteed right to return, lasting 30 days, on most products. I would imagine most states have something similar.)

-I highly doubt anybody got fired because he called and complained. (I will post about this at length later.)


But, yeah, unless a toy has something wrong with it, returning it is kind of extreme. (I tend to pitch/customize bad toys, but that is just me.)


Dom
-kind of hungry for new toys.
