I read somewhere that someones friend spotted a 1/18th Tiger at Target in Texas. Can anyone confirm that and that it was a 1/18th Tiger? I can confirm, it was me who saw it. It is a pinkish tan with brown camo stipes. Pictures of both the GI and German figures on the sides (Dot pattern camo smocks,...

I ordered one online this Morning....It looks pretty good. Their Jungle Strike and Desert Strike Humvees were pretty cool. This one should be no different.

Any odds makers want give us Odds on the likelyhood of seeing either the Wild West Line or SOF line at Comic Con? I've just about given up.

No new news and that is what leads to my pessimistic attitude. I mean GI Joe has died and come back from Hiatus faster than we have seen any new news on this line. I posted those pictures from Lee's Guide of the Wild West Line in December, we've had ToyFair since then and no pics, we've had 2/3rds o...

There are no Figures to be found in the Dallas/Fort Worth, Texas area.

Where are you guys finding them in relation to the other Action Figure lines? Are they with the Figures or the Cars/Hot Wheels?

Anybody heard anything about either the Wild West line or SOF? It is beginning to look like a very thin year. It is already April and we haven't seen even any other photos of the Wild West Prototypes we've already seen or the SOF figs.

I'm not too optimistic at this point.

The total lack of news , photos, rumors etc. on the SOF and Wild West Line really have me thinking we won't see product for either line anytime soon....bummer too I needed to re-allocate the GI Joe money.

nono4me beat me to it... In "I flew for the Fuhrer" Knocke describes his bail out in pretty vivid detail. And the process was of course to roll it over. It could be assumed that this is a reason for the massive attrition during the Battle of Britain. If you can't limp the thing home, how exactly are...

Hey if anybody hears anything about the SOF line or the Wild West line from Toy Fair..share it here. Figures.com only has pics of stuff we've all seen (the 6inch Statues and the Paratroops).

Well not to be the wet blanket on this, but I just saw the pics of the new "Scale" and style of Joes...but it is based on the "Lazy" animation that today's kids are TOLD to enjoy by the Lazy artists. So Realistic NO, 1:18 scale NO, a bigger Iceberg than the 12 in line was on the RAH Titanic Line...o...

I am hoping that their SOF 1:18 line will include all aspects of Nam Era MACVSOG...even the squids... I would assume since the editor of SOF was a name taker and heart breaker in Nam that all the figures based on that era will rock. Heck with possibily of Wild West AND Nam era stuff, you'd think Dus...

Wow a Toy Company that responds to the customers/fans? Not exactly good news, I wonder what the Cannon and Gatling Gun are for if the Military guys are not planned? Maybe it is for the Doc Holliday looking figure.."Say hello to my little Huckleberry" Hopefully the line will do well. I would have fig...

Hopefully with all the eyes we have here, we'll be able to get the first updates on whatever Dusty Trail offers in 1:18 scale. The interest in the Wild West (or Cowboys and Indians if you must) for ME is that we've already got so much "Modern" stuff out there, any other time period is welcome, be it...

I guess it will all boil down to what their price point is for the figures and if the horses are pre-posed like the pictures or articulated. I'd really like to have articulated horses, or at least standing versions and running versions.. It just wouldn't look right for my stage hold up with the hors...

Wondering on the Pricepoint of the Stagecoach (and figures).....and hopefully next month at Toy Fair maybe some of that will be answered.... I've seen the Paratroopers go for as low as $8.00 (online) and with a pricetag of $15 (local comic shop and they haven't sold one YET). So I would assume the f...

TRU carrying the Wild West line would be awesome. When you see DT at Toy Fair, tell them how much we are all looking forward to their articulated 1:18 stuff (without being to Fanboy of course).... As far as "soiled doves" I could see that being added to the Wild West line for sure. Probably more in ...

Here is something that has been vexing me a bit on the Wild West and SOF lines from DT (and I agree with JJ, anything that DT wants to do in 1:18 scale from any era of history will get more than a cursory glance from me) But here is my concern, WHERE will these be available at Retail? Right now the ...

As good as they did on the uniform details of the Fallschrimjaeger et al., it would be nice to see Cavalry in their Wild West Line up.

And they really are tangle free chutes. When the Wild West line was announced, I snagged the HALO guy just to see what their sculpting was like in that scale. Their M4 Carbine is really close to the BBI one in the same scale. Better than PowerTeam and Hasbro (obviously). If the HALO guy had had ANY ...

I'd love some versions from back in the 80's (probably the last time I actually bought SOF) from the Russian Afghanistan era. I think that is when I developed a desire for a Dragunov SVD... If the Stagecoach driver and Shotgun rider look anything like a certain Movie version, I am excited. The Stage...
