has power team gone out of business? None of the links to any sites work, no new product, no product being restocked anywhere. Anyone know?

Their website is still up. Not much has changed on there. Their 1:18 sets are still on JCPenney's site and the PowerTeam fan site is still going with no news on it. And their stuff is still showing up at Toys R Us under the TRU brand-forget what they call it.
I guess we'll find out in a few weeks if anything shows up at BigLots.

As far as I know they're fine and new stock is still shipping overseas of things like the Chinese figures and gear...
And speaking of new PTE... Tis the season at Big Lots. Time to start lurking there I guess.

They're still stocked here in New Zealand. Just had a look today actually. More of the Jeep and trailer sets showed up at the local store and a handful of those Aerial Rocket Helicopter (ARH) thingies...the one that looks like a Dauphin Helicopter.

Their stuff is all over my TRU along with Chap Mei stuff. I have to say, CM is cranking out pretty cool vehicles - police cars, dragon wagon type trucks, assault boats - really a lot of neat stuff in the lower-tier market.

My store today had:
-Chinese Tanks w/US Figures
-Littlebirds out the whazzoo
-Little 3-figure w/large accessory sets (3 figures and a horse, raft, etc.)
-Humvees (hard top and pick-up types)
That's it...
No towers (:(), no big bombed out buildings, no Abrams (:(), no 3-packs with the hedgehog (:(), no figure w/big accessory, no tents/cots,/etc. (:(), and no bridges (:().
A ton of stuff I wanted isn't around at all, and nothing I did see was anything I wanted except POSSIBLY picking up the Chinese tank... But honestly it's not that appealing even. *shrugs* I'm disappointed with my first stop thus far.

I see. It's a nice looking chopper, it just lacks any armament.CW4USARMY wrote:Yes, I was talking about the aerial rocket helicopter (ARH). Ive been wanting to see one in person for awhile now to see what could be done with it. Going to learn how to paint one of these days.

it's not a t-90.....it's a chinese type 95 tank. Similar hull to a t-80, but stretched a bit and very different turret, sort of the shape of an abrams turret.
There have been lots of pics of it posted over the last couple of years. Should be easy to find with a forum search. It's about 1/20 scale. Nice vehicle though.

I think it's a Type 98. At least that's what I've always seen it referred to as. I did a google search for "Chinese Type 95 tank" and couldn't find any references to such a vehicle in Chinese service. They do have a light machinegun that's designated as the Type 95. Also the Japanese had a WW2 light tank referred to as the Type 95.aferguson wrote:it's not a t-90.....it's a chinese type 95 tank...

I believe it is a 98. Scroll down and check out the picture of the type 98.
