I have one of the original spylounge figures, and will probably get some of the new ones. Their service was great the first time so I wouldn't hesitate to order from them again.

The Night Stalker version is a pretty accurate model of an MH-6J Little Bird. The TOW pods that are included are nonsense, MH-6s don't have the electronics to support those missiles, but they are totally optional and the helicopter is otherwise pretty accurate. The earlier "attack" versions of the L...

The figure with the ball cap that is available at TRU is not 21567 CC Langer, it is 21718 William Thomas. That figure has been out for about a year.

Several of these figures have never made it to retail. The ones in bold below are the only ones that have actually been offered for sale. Toys R Us carried all of them at least for a while, although they are all hard to find now. US Navy Delta Force JT Lucas ( 214-88 ) - Yes, available at TRU US Arm...

Finally getting WWII figures in CT and NY. I picked up four each of German and US figures. Still no Shermans, although I don't care because I just want the WWII guys so I can swap their heads onto modern figures to get a more varied modern army.

There were about three sets of the Platoon figures at the Wal Mart in Milford, CT. I picked up all four figures yesterday.

Just wanted to pop in and say, my gosh that is amazing work. I've been wanting to turn my Blackhawk into an MH-60L, but even cutting out the windows for the gunner positions is a daunting task. What you've done here goes beyond anything I've even contemplated doing to mine, and it's seriously profes...

My local TRU (Milford, CT) had a lot of modern BBI paratroopers and other modern figures. I picked up a couple more Danny Lynch Delta troopers on Saturday, though they were at the regular price. Then yesterday I went to two different Targets (West Haven CT and Milford CT). The Milford one had no BBI...

Went to the Target in West Haven, CT today. They had six M1A1s, both the forest and desert ones, for $14. No WWII figures at all, but I did pick up a couple more modern Army FOV guys for customization purposes. Does anyone know if the WWII figures head / necks are compatible with the Modern figures?

I'll have to hit the two Targets that are in easy driving distance from me tomorrow.

I guess this is the final inventory clearance before Target stops selling BBI stuff altogether.

I guess they dropped the price on the BBI Abrams. I picked up the FOV one for $20 a couple of weeks ago, the BBI one was $25.

I really like the new Delta Night Ops para and the Lucas Delta CQB guy. I've found several of each at TRUs in Connecticut. I was able to do headswaps from the previous Modern paratroopers "Ferguson" and "Brookes", as well as a couple of WWII paras, to make a nice team of individual Delta troopers. I...

I've found plenty of FOV modern at the Target in Newburgh, NY, as well as in Milford, West Haven, and Derby, CT. It seems the Army figures are selling a little bit better than the Marine ones for some reason. I have the desert M1 and Bradley, and about 20 of the Army guys plus one full set each of t...

Howdy folks. I originally joined back over the summer, only to have my account get nuked by the anti spam thing before I could post. Been lurking since then, this board has been a wealth of information and I've been itching to participate. I'm in New Windsor, NY, and I collect 1/6 and 1/18 modern st...
