That's a fantastic price for any museum gift shop, most places would be 3X that.

Are you serious PH? :shock:
No way they were priced at that.

I pay almost that for a good BBQ rib eye steak!

Yes I am. $15 :D

When they first came we had nothing for a month or 2. I located a bunch in Boloxi. That is a little over an hrs drive from hear. I bought 4 at full price there.

Then about a month later almost 3 full months after they were released they showed up at almost EVERY Walmart. I would say each walmart had at least 10 of them. Then the discounts started . I baught a bunch of them. I wished I had enough money back then . I would have done my rounds and baught all of them.

The Shermans whent down to $8 the M-113 r/c $5 I think and the Hueys $15. Man I remember the CIA Hueys were stacked to the ceilling at $15 I just kept on walking. :evil:

Only 3 Atlantic Avengers left @ WWII Museum gift shop. Slightly damaged boxes... some parts loose but not broken, like the rear gunner nacelle. They might even let em go for less that $29.99! PD
