Got my first of 2 payments from spect_spidey! He's a good person to deal with!! Deserves an excellent rating! A big tip of the helmet to ya!

Hi Warthog! Welcome to Cleveland! As you will see, we had weeks of beautiful weather...of which I wasted some of this time hunting for bbi's, and now it's gonna be cold and rainy with wet snow! YEUCK! But once again I can waste time looking for bbi's. Thanks for the post of your wife finding the bbi...

Sold. Thanks. bob

Sold. Thanks. bob

Sold. Thanks. bob

I'd rather have my wife yell at me each time I walked out of a TRU with a bag load of bbi's than to have her say each time I walk out with nothing..."See? Told you they wouldn't have it!" "How come they don't have it? They have all this other stuff!" "This is just a waste of time!" "This is stupid! ...

Sorry again for all the rants. Frustration took over! That and the wife, who doesn't understand all the 1:18 collecting, especially when it comes to me wasting my time, as she puts it, LOOKING ALL OVER for this stuff.
Trying to justify BUYING it was hard enough!!

well it's also possible that the first production run was smallish....to test the market as it were. These things are distributed all over the world, not to just the US TRU. Given that this scale is still somewhat newish and unproven and that BBI's production capacity has been stretched by other pr...

I hate to ALWAYS rant on here! That's what we're here for 8) FOV does have some great distribution network...that stuff floods the shelves and small retailers....the occassional MLRS fiasco or whatever, but overall pretty good. As someone said action figures just aren't the $ items for tru....that'...

Mike doesn't handle TRU distribution. Many are experiencing the same frustrations at WM with 21c product. The problem is the way TRU distributes their product. A lot of it is probably up to the store manager or area manager. If he/she doesn't see a high demand for an item they won't order it or wil...

I like a rant as much as the next guy but Holensock I don't want you to pull something :o :P There will be enough I am sure.....maybe Amazon got them 8) There can't be only one case per tru.... :? ...right? I really can't wait for the distribution to catch up....I have the damn flagship store down ...

Hi Guys Bad luck for me over the week-end. I called up my wifes cousin in Boston to see if she would go down to the Toys R Us and pick me up some of the new WWII BBI figures she went to 2 TRU and zip nada. Im really having bad luck with this new figures can't find them on-line, live in Quebec so I ...

I'll send you a PM!

You got it! THANK YOU! My address will be on your other email! bob

I looked all over the internet for these guys, and while I have a set myself, today I go into a Hobby Store and find ALL the Germans that I already bought on the internet! But at the prices this guy was selling them at, I bought 'em all and thought that maybe I could sell them to anyone here at the ...

I agree with everyone here-DO NOT GET RID OF YOUR COLLECTION! It may cost you alot of moren money to get it back if you change your mind in a few years! There's a lot of pressure holding down a job, marriage, etc. now a days. It's always-go go go, eat-sleep-go back to work. It gets us down-gives us ...

If they could somehow 'articulate' the 32X soldiers...I'd be THERE!!!

Good points, Fredricchio! And all things considered-it's probably better I just go into the store and keep checking for myself!
Thanks for the pics, Markecho! Now I'm going back and back and back there for sure!!!

PHEW! Glad I got my preorder in!! But I won't rest easy until...IT'S IN MY LIVE COLD HANDS!

Have you ever tried calling a TRU? First you get to find out what time they open, then what time they close-all this on a recorded message, then you push a number to talk to someone...then you get to listen to their kiddie muzak...FINALLY someone answers and you ask to speak to someone concerning mi...

Thanks for the kind words about my Panzer, and yes it is a 21st panzer, I still...

This probably has been covered here before hundreds of times, but...being somewhat new at collecting XD and bbi and Dragon, etc...do you keep the empty boxes and packages that the figures came in once you take them out? Or do you just throw the packages away. I guess for true collectors who buy and ...

Went to TRU in Elyria, Ohio. They had the bbi WWII Paratroopers, but not their new WWII figures. I also hit the North Olmsted TRU and they had NO Paratroopers OR the new WWII figures.
