According to Deep Tide TechFlow, on December 16, Mask Network founder Suji Yan stated that Pudgy Penguins toys in several physical stores in New York were destructively unsealed, and the QR codes were stolen. 'These photos are from stores in New York, and friends from Web2.5 wanted to buy some penguin toys, but all the boxes were opened and the QR codes were gone.' Suji Yan said, 'I had been distributing penguin toys to the team and friends, and many Web2 creators loved the idea of penguins even though they lost the QR codes. The sudden airdrop led speculators to rush into Walmart to do these meaningless things.'

It is reported that due to Pudgy Penguins toy buyers being eligible for token airdrops after the launch on the Abstract Chain mainnet, some speculators rushed into Walmart to steal the QR codes inside the toys. Suji Yan calls on the crypto community to condemn this theft and return the toys to the users who truly love them.
