Hmmm.. Haven't heard of those pieces reaching the small retailers yet, though they are bound to eventually. It sounds like your hobby store picked them up at Wal Mart and is now reselling them

It was the old stuff with a driver the stuff that came at in 99 or 01. the mutt was 24 and the tanks where 74. But they only had one of each and I got the mutt.

he buys a lot of old collections so i'd guess thats where it came from.

I was excited a few weeks ago to see one of the local Hobbytown USA's with a Petie the 2nd on the shelf. Until I saw the price..

$72.99
