Thanks Grunt... I didn't want to miss out on potential variations of the US at TRU, so I should be good then. Wish the Wave 1 US Infantry would get reshuffled in at some point with some new markings... Maybe some Red 1's or something. They were really nice figures and they dried up around me a long time ago.

MandarlorreSC, no thanks needed just wanted to help out another collector and those numbers were passed on to me/us by a fellow board member.
There is another member from Germany looking for a Pak-40 Hanomag, his name is COOper ( I saw this on the Buy,Sell and Trade part of this site) If you can't find one let me know, I'll see if I can find you one.

Is anyone in the Eastern US finding the Quad .50 Trailer? I've been checking about once a week and so far nothing. I seem to one of only a few who actually wants one!

So, I set up the damn M17 being towed by the bigger dodge truck. I have to admit--I like the looks of it.

found the new camo long tom today at TRU- its got "in the mood" on the barrel, nice, but duplicates of planes and tanks are one thing, I don't believe I need cannon duplicates, though.

Bremerton WA one has put the 1/18th scale planes on clearance of $25.00 just a few 109's and old crow's left and one Canadian star fighter.
Could not think of anything to put here.

The Brats R us over here by my girlfriends work has been out of 1:18th 21st cen. figures for over 3 weeks since I bought the last 2 they had on the shelf. But during today's vist, I got a worker to do a little digging about the area where they would be displayed, found nothing. Next I showed him where a couple Hagmogs with the Pk40 were way up on the top shelf in a different area and told him they should be with the other 21st cen. items where folks can pick them up to buy them. Then he checked that overhead bin under that top shelf and lo and behold, what did he find ???? 10 of the new 1:18th German figures stashed in there including 6 of the S2 series pea dot troopers. So I was a hog and grabbed them all :P :twisted: So I guess tonight will have me doing the Frankenstien thing by changin' out the heads, arms, etc and make some new figures :) I mean, it takes alot of guys to make an army right ???

Great score. Btw, we have finally come to the amazing point where the bbi and 21C heads are completely compatable. Just pluck and switch as you please. I am up to about 15 Ottos, and all have their own melon (as I hope they would). Some of the bbi paras have the best heads, and the ones with dirt (or burnt cork) on their face make great battle-hardened SS. 8)

Digger, so your the one with all the Otto's. :wink: I went to a TRU in my AO and found just the DAK figures. You can still find Pak 40 Hano's at most locations.

Caught sight of the Quadmount 2-ton trailer today at the Pleasanton TRU. Neat looking vehicle but I still think it isn't worth the $30 price tag. Does come with a figure though. They had 4 on the shelf and still do. :wink:

Good - they're finally in California! Hopefully they'll be in my area before too long. I'm not sure that I'll get it, but want to see one in person.

I'd rather spend $30 bucks on a 21C 1/18 item than a Hasbro SW item.

***meaning the 21C items are more accurate, scale like and has lots of detail. The TIE interceptor was $34.95, has 3 parts and cardboard "cockpit" woohoo***
