When I was in 5th grade I had a classmate, who was super into He-Man (clearly he was going down a path, NTTIAWWT). He came into school one day on top of the world as he supposedly won every He-Man action figure from I think a box of cereal. A few weeks later he was utterly crushed to find out all he got was a picture of every He-Man action figure. If it only came with a fancy blockchain receipt!

What a scumbag thing to do, promise a kid a bunch of cheap plastic and screw them over for a few hundred bucks. But the kids father was a lawyer so maybe it was just karma.
