ss set

over half off can still be called a deal. Under $3 a fig is not bad.

Still a great deal. I think your suffering from the Wal Mart Syndrome. It’s hard to justify the higher price when it once sold for 10 bucks. I think I paid $70 for mine a few years back. Anything under that is a deal in my book. :wink:

F-86 Huffs are gone. I didn't buy one. Decided to stick with my Mitch.

I think it's sort of a deal... $10 was insane, and was about all that prompted me to buy it really, but as was pointed out, the price per figure breaks down nicely at less than $40. The full price, I wasn't biting on ever... They're just not interesting enough to me (it's the same as if the Patton figures had been $10 a pop or something. I wouldn't have bought a set of those unless I got them for basic retail). The SS set is a little boring to me as subject matter goes, but for $10 I couldn't pass on two sets, haha.

It's funny how price changes perception... The same goes for the 88. Two 88's for the price of one a month ago, was totally worth it to me. One 88 at $80 was a waste to me, and way overpriced. It's all in one's perception of value.

Uh- oh! Another package hit the porch today, and my wife called me "Toy Boy" (and not in a good way!) when I got home. Another MD shipment is on the way. I'd better get this Monkey off my back!!!

It looks like the 262 nightfighters are almost out of stock, so get one now if you're on the fence. I just picked up another one...$40 and change shipped for a plane that includes two figures is a steal.

Maybe once the nightfighters are cleared out we'll see some standard 262s.

Looks like the 21st stuff is starting to wind down, I was hoping to see more, but I certainly won't complain if I don't. I got some great deals! :wink:

Thanks for the intel on the nightfighter. I was on the fence. When I saw they had 3 left, I had to pull the trigger.

Well, is the MD blowout coming to a close, or will there be a few more surprise listings this week?

I hope for all of us married and credit card carrying members that this insanity is over. I got out for just over $100. No clue where I will put 2 of the jets, but for $42, I had to get the Sabre and Mig. It was fun while it lasted and I hope it didn't cause any permanent damage to you guys.

I'd rather be called "Boy Toy" than "Toy Boy" :lol:

The only two I regret not getting was the "Yellow 7" 262, and the ever-elusive because I hesitate every time BBI "Daisy Jane" Corsair, which at $44 wasn't that spectacular of a deal, but still better than anywhere else.

Glad I got my ME-262 Nightfighter on the way. She really is a nice bird.

I have a f-16, f-104, bbi zero, apache and a lil' bird, yet the Daisy June is still my favorite. Got it for $35 at TRU around christmas time. I wonder if the Sabre or Mig will become the new king when they arrive.

I hope there are a few more surprises like winter jeeps and PZ IV's but I know those are long shots in the dark.

That would pose a problem for me. I hope they do not show up. I would be compelled to buy and would have to finish that spare bedroom sooner than planned.
