Glad to hear you also found a Tuskeegee P-51, VV. Now I know I'm not crazy or that it wasn't a fluke. What ever happened to the "exclusive" status for that plane?

I know, hardly exclusive. I don't think there are any true exclusives in 1:18. I think it's all word play i.e. exclusive in that a particular retailer(s) gets a lock on sales for the first XX months and therefore they can call it an exclusive, when in fact anyone can sell it after that agreed to term.

I'm not kidding though, it was hard to not buy those planes today. REALLY hard.

As I said earlier, I bought the plane for another boardmember. At least that way it goes to someone who wants and will appreciate it -- and it won't sit on the shelf for weeks, tempting me to spend another $40 for a 5th 1:18 P-51 that I have no space for

You can count the Tuskeegee gone at the Dublin TRU. Thanks VV for posting. I told a friend of mine who has been looking for that plane and he marched right down there, found it - bought it.

I found a 1/18 AC restock at one of the TRUs. Consisted of a tiger strip mig15, undertaker p-51, seeman 109, and Tuskeegee P-51- I got the red tail-

Didn't find any sign of plane restocking but did find the kneeling DAK figure at one store. They had about 7 or 8 of them. Now they have 3 or 4 of them left.

Went lookin' for new figs, no luck but found the 21CT Old Crow & Canadian 104...the last thing I need is more Mustangs & Starfighters, but they were so pretty (not even a slight QC flaw between the two of 'em) that I found myself signing the adoption papers...

...I'm glad TRU is picking up where WM left off, many of these planes probably sitting for weeks on clearance at Midwest WMs never made it to the East Coast...

im seeing the 104s but only finding the undertaker and ridgerunners at four different TRU this weekend - went red-tail hunting - nothing to show for it though.....

Fritzkrieg · Post by **Fritzkrieg** » Mon Mar 10, 2008 8:11 pm

Found the new Dak (Kneeling w/ MP40) It looks like TRU put out a solid case of just this figure. I thought I would have found the other DAk Artillary Crewman, but no such luck.

Found the new 1/48 Tony yesterday here in Dallas. Green/silver - Nice plane.

Anyone seen the F-86 Sabre "The Huff" at ToysRUs?

mikeg · Post by **mikeg** » Tue Mar 11, 2008 4:36 pm

No Huff, but damn near everything else.

Mig 15s- korean and chinese
P-51s- old crow, ridge runner, tuskeegee, flying undertaker
Corsair- only bunker hill, though-
F-104- george, smoke II, RCAF
ME-109- seeman

The latest box of 4 I found had an undertaker, george 104, ridge runner and smoke II

dragon53 · Post by **dragon53** » Tue Mar 11, 2008 4:47 pm

I went to my nearest ToysRUs in Houston.
As usual, not much---no 21st 1/18 planes, so no F-86 Huff. Just a bunch of 1/48 Tonys and 1/32 P-51Bs.

grockwood · Post by **grockwood** » Tue Mar 11, 2008 8:01 pm

Went to the other two TRU's in the area. Only Mustangs I found were one Old Crow and one Flying Undertaker. Found several of the new Vietnam figure . One of the TRU's had eleven or more of the 251/22 Pak halftrack repaint. I don't think they can sell that many at one store.

Razor17019 · Post by **Razor17019** » Wed Mar 12, 2008 7:09 am

My local TRU has 3 full pegs of VN figs. (couldn't find them at first and now we are drowning in them)

They had 2 21stC 1/18 planes. But no Tuskeegee P-51.
Anyone find an extra of these -let me know.

dcmacharlie · Post by **dcmacharlie** » Wed Mar 12, 2008 9:27 pm

Hi walked into the Toys R us store in Vegas and found a P-40B and the 104C/G at 39.00 each, picked them both up, added to my collection, wife has said what am i going to do when the company comes over in May and needs the extra bedroom, planes parked all over the floor at the moment in that room looks awesome, this sat will head over to the local Hobby shop and see what they have, need a WW2 Prop German plane to add to the collection, all or nothing ( 1:18 )

Was in NE PA over the weekend and found one of the new DAK guys - Moldenhauer. As others have said, looks like he ships in a solid case.

Fritzkrieg · Post by **Fritzkrieg** » Mon Mar 17, 2008 7:57 pm

Not 21c, but TRU.com has their Golden Compass figures on clearence. Great fodder for customs. I picked up some extra Daniel Craig figs for custom 007s

dragon53 · Post by **dragon53** » Tue Mar 18, 2008 8:15 am

the Houston ToysRUs on Katy Freeway near the Memorial Mall has:

1. two 1/18 F-104 Starfighters (Vietnam Smoke II and RCAF yellow striped)
2. two 1/18 Mustangs (Flying Undertaker, etc.)

The ToysRUs near Reliant Stadium has the BBI Daisy June F4U Corsair and I think the olive drab Mustang.

mikeg · Post by **mikeg** » Tue Mar 18, 2008 9:21 am

Local TRU has the 1/48th Tonys and 1/144th desert camo spit/red B 262 pack.

Tambo · Post by **Tambo** » Wed Mar 19, 2008 8:14 am

A solid case (4) Rainbow 1/18 F-104 Starfighters here in Clarksville, TN

Too bad I have that one already.

c44 · Post by **c44** » Thu Mar 20, 2008 5:33 pm

Found the new AK guy at the Stony Brook TRU, great looking fig...no Dusty D'amato, though...also found new small scale McFarlane modern figs, see my post in 1/32 scale forum if interested...PS if it's true McF has ruled out ever doing 1/18 figs, well, that's just a crying shame...
