Going back through reciepts, they were still $5 ($4.97 to be exact) in my neck of the woods a week ago when I bought a couple Germans

Theyr'e still, as far as I know Dig, $4.97 here before tax... They're not always on the right peg though, so maybe it was a mislabeling?

I bought another of the blonde German Artillery Rangefinders the other day for $5 so the price was the same as a week ago.

Finally found a Huff at WM in Taylor. They had 1 Huff and 1 Mitch's Squitch. Now they are minus obne Huff.

Well, as you can see, the F-86 and Mig have finally shown up on the East coast. I checked out the Milford WM and sure enough, they had 4 Mitch's and 4 Chinese Migs. I am sure getting tired of that sort of wait....

The Puyallup WM had one of the new BBD P51. Not much new around here.

At Wal Mart??

what??? another MIG????

why?

The Tigerstriped Migs have shown up again in Tulsa, along with a few Huff F-86s..

almost every WM in my area has 3-4 Tigerstriped migs and 2-4 russian MIGS
the rare MIG is the first one the NK first run - these birds were clearanced before and after christmas - for 21st to throw a fourth MIG version out at this time shows a lack of something - the aisles will be so flooded with MIGS it will be next year before we see anything new - Or WM will have to clearance everything causing them to think before ordering anything more.

just worries me i guess

Sounds like a repeat of the FW-190's.

The new figures have showed up in some Kansas City Metro WM. I have found all the figures except the German Artilleryman and the Tracker figure. Anyone know why the Tracker figure is so hard to find? Wasn't he part of the first set of releases along with the tank crew?

I thought so too at one time, but everytime I see a restock of the tanker figures Tracker is absent from the group. Unless the WM stockers are kidnapping these guys.

Isn't this the same Russian mig we saw initially , now reappearing regularly?

Yes that is the same Russian Mig that has been out a while now.

6 Sabres (Mitch's Squitch) showed up last weekend at Middle Island WM, probably worth the wait, it's a beautiful bird...still plenty of Smokes & Flying Undert'rs at same location, go get 'em...

I found the two new 21c F-104 schemes at a Fresno, Ca Wal Mart this morning: the "Canadian Tiger Meet" scheme and the "Lavern, George AFB" scheme for $39.84

There was only one of each, and although both schemes look great, I didn't pick up either. No telling how long they'll sit there and 1:18 stuff seems to disappear from this store quickly.

I'm not actually surprised to have found them, but can't really say if this is a general release unless more reports come in. My local Hobbytown has the Geroger AFB F-104 as well, but for $20 more!

You guys are getting restocks on the Russian Migs we have yet to see them here. But we have plenty of restock Koreans . The one with the big red nose. They were on sale about 3 months ago and now they are getting restocked at other stores? Hmmm Were is the thinking here

I've said this before, but we've yet to see any Migs at all up this way. Glad I got the Russian from BadCat long ago. And if an F-86 ever shows up around here I'll probably buy one.

Hee is my Mig its a nice Model
