That stinks. Wish Target and TRU would get their heads out of their.... I'd rather give them my 21C dollars instead of Walmart. Same here...My Wal-Mart stock is so stagnat and there doesn't seem to be much chance of that changing anytime soon. They just restocked with more Imperial Marines (S2 this...

Actually they where only out of it for a few months. They have offered several waves of 1:18 scale figures through Hasbro Toy Shop.com (http://www.hasbrotoyshop.com/ProductsByBrand.htm?BR=520&SBR=315) But this was sold through Internet Only, until now. What TRU has been getting is actually Wave 3 of...

Sorry- forgot to comment on Afrika Corps. figs. I personally would love to see some! I think they might be a strong consideration in the future. I have been told that the "ground pounders" should be quite pleased later in the year. People are really diggin the OMG and new BOB figs! Mine have all dr...

This may be a stupid question, but do the Japanese clear the shelves, or collect dust like the Marines? They don't move at all around here.... They put out a case with S1 in it and they are all still here. The S2 Marines are just sitting as well, insuring that getting anything beyond that wave next...

Yeah I'm really looking forward to them...Provided they actually show up. Most of the Wal-Marts around here are clogged to the gills with Pacfic Marines and Imperial figures.

Oh....Nice. I really like the Snow Camo Infantry. I had passed on the White Tanker cause I don't currently own a Snow Camo Tank and most of them come with Tankers, but I really like that figure. I may go back and pick up the white Tanker and see if I can track down an Infantry with the white camo he...

It worked like a charm and they look great. I also found an unexpected bonus, in that if i take the head from the Closed coat BoB Infantry and put it on the non-jacketed body of the Open coated BoB Infantry I get a pretty good looking Standard German Infantry Soldier. It's not perfect, but it's pass...

How hard is it to switch out heads on XD figures?

And how would be the best way to go about it? I'm want to switch a few of the heads on German BoB figures to mix them up a bit , but I've only customized GI Joes, which have the screw in the back. I don't want to break my figures, so I weary of just taking hold and trying to pull them out of the soc...

I was thinking the same but more for the Fallshirmjager troops - First they came and went so fast -I never saw them in the store - They would be very popular and have already proved they were fast sellers. I could go for that too. I don't have them either, but I really don't have an excuse for not ...

I have a few question. The first is there any chance of seeing some of the first 1:18 figures again at retail? You know the (German Infantry, US Infantry, etc.). These only really came out at TRU and we didn't have a TRU nearby and so I missed out on them. Or if we can't get these figures again any ...

I've been lurking for awhile, but I finally decided to post after reading this thread, and I wanted to give my two cents. You know I understand why people might be gun shy of the Swastika, but I hate how it's been singled out as the "No-No" flag. I mean Stalin IMHO was twice as bad as Hitler. He kil...
