Just curious if anyone is still seeing these sets at their local Toys'R'Us stores?

Nope, haven't seen them since their initial shipment. They didn't last long here...

They never showed at my TRU. The one here really, really, really sucks! No bbi airplanes, no 21st stuff, no nuthin!

I only saw them at one of the 3 TRU in my AO and that store is sold out of them.

I never saw these in stores because my only TRU is an amusement park (yes, it has a ferris wheel...) not a toy store. I could see not being able to pass it up at $40; no surprise really that they sold out. Good for two reasons:

1) Hopefully more stuff 21C at TRU because bbi really just doesn't put enough stuff on the shelves.
2) More bulk packs

Hopefully this notion catches on.

I always thought that would be a good way to re-release some playsets - in bulk packs with some figs & vehicle. I'm not holding my breath.

I've seen these sets at several TRU in my local AO. One of the TRU had them restocked twice. Haven't seen them recently, though.

I only saw them once at one of 4 TRU's I visit in the Pittsburgh area, and as it was in the lead-up to X-Mas I didn't really have the dough to blow on the set at the time.

I never saw them again, and never got a set. I'm still truckless as a result, at least till my weapons carrier is picked up off lay-away.

Those things moved quick for big sets at a high price. Not atht it was high for what you got, but $40's usually a pricepoint that things don't move too well in the toy aisle. Too bad other companies don't look at all the good things 21st has done to move product like that MM set.

My local stores got them later than everyone else. I saw them alot in December but now they are all gone.

I am going to do some checking though to see if any are still around. If I find any I guess I better buy them up.

I finally got mine yesterday!

They were gone after the holidays,
But the ToysRus on Bay Ridge in Brookyln NY restocked them!
There were 4 of them, I got 1, so there are 3 left

Good Luck finding them

By the way, Normandy, if you spot something 1:18 in Long Island, please tell me, Thank you

TRU here in the frozen north went through two restockings before Christmas and sold out completely (must have been close to a dozen sets). I hope TRU takes note and orders more.

The two TRUs in my area got 4-6 of the Merrils Mauraders sets and they were gone after the Christmas season. Thats pretty good for a 21c item, considering that similar 21c products seem to gather dust (and impeed the restocking of newer items) at the Wal Mart stores.
