Kmart Shipping Kylo Not Rey?
Those that preordered the exclusive 6″ Black Series Rey (Starkiller Base) figure from Kmart have a new reason to pause when checking their mailboxes. There are reports people are receiving the exclusive Kylo Ren instead of the Rey figure that was ordered.
@yak_face Kmart gave me Kylo Starkiller instead of Rey after I purchased it online. Arrrgh!!! I'm having the worst luck trying to get one.
