A while back I posted about my Rapidstrike clear magazine that had reversed printing on one side of the mouth. I followed a suggestion to exchange it for a correct printing. The thing is, Hasbro insisted on replacing not only the magazine, but also the blaster itself.

That was a few months ago. Today I got these in the mail, with a letter explaining that the actual replacement item was taking too long.

Twenty-four darts in two opaque mags versus eighteen in a clear? A shoulder stock/single-shot muzzle-loader hybrid plus shield versus a Rapidstrike? Doesn't feel like a fair exchange to me.

I know I should show gratitude whenever possible, but this is the second time Hasbro has disappointed me. The other time, I had a nice blue Stryfe in very good condition which was just a little underpowered compared to my son's orange. So I exchanged it expecting they would send out another blue one... and got another orange one in return. Not only that, but they eventually let on that the blue one would be destroyed due to company policy, so I couldn't even buy it back if I wanted.

That's the kind of Monday it's been so far. :-P
