Re: XD Outdoors ! (in a different light)

I think "tman" posted a neat BoB winter display with his Sherman ,.. Panther and BoB figures in the snow once. ..... Again I'm not saying to leave your XD outside for any lengthy duration or especially ,.. left unguarded. Just long enough to take some nice shots and have some fun experimenting with...

I see that Hanomag in the meadow, I'm thinking Private Ryan could pop up at any second.

I wouldn't mind setting up a diorama in my back yard to take photos of like some of you guys. I've seen some really nice ones on the web, and recently here.



For now I just like to chase the cat around and get the dog all riled up with my RC Stuart. It's a giddy feeling. :lol:

DAUNTLESS: Does ToysRU.coms allow you to return online purchases to the local ToysRUs to exchange it for a model you can personally inspect for paint flaws, make sure it's the right model, etc? I don't know for sure, never tried it. Sure would be nice. Usually my local TRU's don't have anything goo...

UPDATE: So I called TRU online and told them that 10 days had passed and still no call from the shipper to pick up the damaged P-40. Then I told him (Chris) that the one pictured in online was not the one that I received and that even the description is for the RAF P-40B, yet I received the AVG one(...

I have an original Motorworks one MIMB. When I saw TRU had one, I immediately jumped on it by mistake, because of their mistake. I wanted one I could hang up loose. I think it would look cool with the BBI Desert 109 harrasing it, as they used to play havoc with the obsolete P-40's. Though I'm sure b...

I can't wait till this comes out. I'm thankful for so many cool 21st Century ones, but this ups the ante in detail.

I was watching it, or the one previous to it. Anyone see the guy who put his Jolley Roger F-18 on the same time as this auction was going on, and kept raising the "buy it now" price to match the auction one? I didn't check to see if he sold it but he probably did. What would you call that? A parasit...

Good luck. I've placed 3 orders over the past month for the Daisy June while on sale and each were canceled due to "out of stock" even though the website showed them in stock and took the order. :roll: I did exactly the same thing. (well one Corsair) I'll bet it's still up on the website along with...

TRU P-40 Flying Tiger SNAFU

Just wanted to mention or warn others, that if you think your getting the RAF P-40B on the TRU website. The one they have the picture and description of, http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=3136723 that's not what you will get. It's the CAF Flying Tiger that will arrive. I found out t...

Not that I would buy it just because it's Bush's Avenger, but it sure would be nice to get an Avenger in that camo sceme. Much like the Atlantic version, in tri-color and the lighter underbelly colors going farther up the sides on the fuselage, only in blues. The Bunker Hill is cool, but it isn't qu...

I think they should at least come out with an Amphibian car that floats. Talk about play value in the bathtub.

I found one Vogel at Walmart earlier this week. Along with 3 others from this wave. I fear there is a cooling off of people buying Indy figures, so there is a lot of the first wave clogging the pegs. If they can't sell these they won't order any more, so I think Vogel might be becoming scarce to fin...

One Walmart here in Albuquerque has the WWII German 2-pks and German-American 2-pks. I picked up 2 of each. The Platoon figures are doing a major pegwarming around here. Now if Walmart would just carry a few 1:18 Huey helicopters for those figures to ride in, I'll bet they could clear them out pront...

People on ebay are nuts sometimes. Many times I've seen them bid on stuff, that if they just did a Google search they would find it at a much cheaper price. I've got one of those jeeps I ordered from Danbury Mint a few years ago. They sure are nice. Don't have the rocket launcher one though. The det...
