Small Scale Military Headquarters

The Target on OST/Main near the Astrodome (Reliant Center to some ) has the Para for $2.98-$2.48 for the regulars) and it has a bunch on the endcap, only a few on the aisle.
Some MOFO cut the guns out of several packs
Did not spot a Tiger.

Uh oh, I am down from Canada for a few months and I have picked that Target. But I don't hoard so don't worry. I have my eye on the vehicles in the clearance area...I just need one

does anyone know if this LAV has a different paint scheme on actual combat? meaning the real mccoy, i'm not talking paint scheme on the toy.

At the South Portland, ME Target this afternoon, did not see anything there of bbi's. No helos, armor, vehicles, or figs. Nuthin'.

I don't know if it's already been mentioned...but I found a 1:18 Sabre jet from 21stCentury at TRU today. That's the first time I've seen a 1:18 21st aircraft there since probably 2003!

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 at all, and only had FOV Bradleys and a whole lot of modern troopers at the regular price. The Target in West Haven had exactly one BBI figure left - the Night Stalkers pilot - and although it didn't have a sale sticker on it, it scanned for $1.25 so I got yet another one of him.

sigh... i miss BBi already... time to reminiscence the old days....

I cleaned up at the target clearence
I got like 30 figs at 1.24 a piece and paras at 1.47
3 tanks at 7.48 each,
bradleys were 9.98 after christmas,

you got the bradleys at 50% off?!?! dayummm...

Is it me or is that a pic of the standard Humvee with some new kit. Perhaps they are doing a kit as this one shows the super humvee with increased armour and a 50. cal:

This could be good though it's nice to see new stuff!

Been waiting for that Humvee, but it's a shame it is not up-armored, just the same old vehicle with the really cool shield. Also plan to switch out the Mk-19 for a .50.

The gunner looks like a new fig, no? Like a regular we haven't gotten before unless it is a bash.

SHERMAN REPAINT! ABOUT TIME!

The Houston Target on Westheimer, one block west of the Wal-Mart, has several BBI paratroopers at $1.48 at the end of the aisle under a "clearance" sign.

Found a dozen Hummers (Tan and Cammo) all for $5 each. Should I get them all for that price? I just picked up 1 Cammo.

I paid $20 and $15 respectively for my woodland/desert Hummers and I'm not too upset about it. They look fantastic loaded with troops and gear... especially the FOV modern army figures and accessories.

I'd say yes. $5 is chicken scratch and the desert Hummer in particular has a good variety of configurations, so even two of them side by side look good.

While the BBi stuff was completely absent from Target last time I went, I'll be heading there again tomorrow. If I see the Hummers at $5, I know I'll be getting another two. A convoy probably looks pretty nifty.

I'm still not sure if Target is dropping BBI or not.
It's cleared out most, if not all, of the in-store BBI. But at Target.com, the BBI Donald Duck P-51 and M1 Abrams are back at regular price, $49.99 and $24.99, respectively).

Target.com has the BBI Donald Duck P-51 and M1 Abrams on sale again: $29.99 and $22.49,respectively.
