ToyFarce News: The Thieves' Guild: "Hasbro Has A New Anti-Theft Patent? Fine. We'll Take The Whole Box!"

[ToyFarce]

A few days ago, it was announced that Hasbro applied for a new anti-theft, anti-tamper packaging patent for their toys and figures. It shouldn't be a surprise to anybody, since we've just spent a year seeing idiots steal the Space Jam Lebron James action figure heads (and selling them on ebay, literally 'scalping' them) to blindly follow a tiktok trend.

A source that is working undercover in several groups, such as the S.C.A.L.P., the Thieves' Guild, the Figure Swap Organization, and other nefarious groups, told ToyFarce that the Thieves' Guild were already working on their own patent to counter that one:

"The Guild said that if toy companies are going to make it more difficult for them to steal the toys inside the packaging, they will just start by stealing the whole thing instead, packaging and all. Meanwhile, they are going to be working on their own counter-patent to fight it. Such is the way of the Guild."

More news at 11:00... How about a new patent to counter the counter-patent?

*ToyFarce News is parody news for laughs and not meant to be taken seriously!

** ToyFarce and Toy News International do not condone stealing toys. Please, don't do that.

Oh boy, thanks to these criminals the cost per figure is going to go up yet again. I never heard of the TikTok trend but it sound about right for that app.

Maybe a bear trap would work.
