Small Scale Military Headquarters

Still nothing at either of the Wal-Marts here

And yeah, I generally try to avoid buying at Wal-Mart, but I make an exception for XD because they're the only store that will carry them. I look at it as helping 21st C, not Wal-Mart

So are there only 6 Japanese soldiers? At least I think I'm only counting six...

Very cool, the added articulation looks great. When all this stuff finally hits, they're going to be fast and furious

I think digger was probably right the first time. Since Wal-Mart is now alotting more space and product to XD, having a window of exclusivity on a hotly-anticipated product sounds like something they might demand. So they're probably both right.

Hmm, save for the markings it looks a lot like the one in p51's photos...

Nothing here in Indiana yet *sigh* Man, I'm starting to get impatient

Its just a designation assigned to you based on how many posts you have; since you're new to the site you're called a "grunt" :) The Kiowa so far has only showed up at TRU as far as I know. You can get it through amazon.com here: BBI Kiowa There are several versions of the Huey, are you looking for ...

Interesting story! If it'd been me I probably would have given it back. I mean he'll probably get a decent price for it but c'mon, 21st offered him one of everything? I guess hindsight's 20/20, but still, even then I think I would have taken that deal.

Just noticed this over at amazon.com, didn't wanna start a new topic though: $39.99 Super Cobra

I was just looking at that awhile ago! My first thought was it must be a custom, but wow, its real? Well, seeing as how the Spinach Me-109 has been geting around a $100, this one should fetch a fair price. I'd bid on it but I've been spending too much on XD recently, gotta cut back. At least until m...

I doubt its going to show up at retail; the F-18 only showed up around Christmas, and only at a few TRU's, at least around here. They're just too expensive... As far as online, it seems to be out of stock at the moment at most places, though BCA still has some. Maybe keep an eye on Big Bad Toy Store...

Cool, I still haven't picked up the Panzer. I'll have to keep an eye out for it.

Hmm, I was actually thinking of the MLRS seen here: FAS While they do mention it being a "derivative of the Bradley Fighting Vehicle", I don't see the resemblance :?: Just looks like a rocket launcher mounted on a flatbed to me. I'd still like to see bbi tackle the M2, though, maybe in a different c...

Man, I'd take advantage of this but for one little detail: " Actual color and/or insignia may vary slightly from item shown." Can't take the chance I'd get a version I already have.

Nothing yet, but bbi was a no-show at Toy Fair so its possible they have something planned and we just don't know about it yet.

A third one? Where'd you see that?

I have the first two (Black Hawk and Pave Hawk), and the only difference is the paint job and markings. Other than that they're exactly the same. I'm not familiar with the 4 figs/no fuel tank version

I'd love to see it get done as well, it would definitely be my next pick for modern armor, along with an MLRS and Paladin.

$2.50 command cars?! Man, any chance you could pick up an extra for me?

Very true. In fact most of the time I can only find them in overstock. Seems like they're only brought down to fill gaping holes on the shelf, or when its time to clearance them (because they're not selling because no one can even see them )

Yeah, I think so. I've only seen a pic of it once on ebay, but it has 'Navy' spelled out on the side, and I think it had yellow trim on the nose and tail. I thought it was more blue than green but it might have just been a dark picture.

This is the checklist I've compiled so far. I think I'm still missing a few, and the paranthetical descriptions are my notation, not necessaarily the common/official descriptions. F4U-1A Corsair (Checkerboard) F4U-1A Corsair (Ira Kepford) F4U-1A Corsair (Pappy’s Corsair) F4U-1A Corsair (Navy) F4U-1A...

Thats how I read it, too. Interesting...

Hey, cool, they added an M113 to the line? When did that happen?

Wow, I didn't know about the Shark version; and its different than the Haleakala II? I don't think I've ever seen it on ebay, is that one harder to find?

We just have the Spitfires and Focke-Wulfs around here, but its hard to find the latter without any broken cannons on the wings.
