Amazon.com finally grew up enough to be rid of TRU. They now run their own toy store. Or so I understand. Saw this screenshot of what they are selling though. It's hilarious. I wonder whether it's like an inside joke, just to see whether people would notice?

It's true. I just went to Amazon, Toys....Birth through 24 months, action figures and it's there!

It will be interesting to see what happens with their toystore. I'm actually not a fan of either Amazon or TRU but they actually had a legal judgement to dissolve their relationship. It was a pretty heated legal battle from I've read so not so much about Amazon growing up. ;)

OMG!!!!! That's definetly a mistake. They have everything entered by keyword or metadata and their computers are pulling up the wrong stuff. OMG! A BIG HUGE NO NO for an online retailer. They just launched in the last week and I just bet you're probably the first one to catch this mistake.

That is SO funny. I happened to be on the phone with DH when I saw your post and we are both still cracking up.

That's really funny. There was a big ruckus a couple months ago because they were selling this under the kids toy's section:

Just read the reviews from all the irate parents. *AS IF* they could accidently buy this and not know what it does!!! :D

Odd. Even the Star Wars action figure (next to it) is out of place.
I guess they still have bugs to work out.
