Small Scale Military Headquarters

Hey Raider can you post some pics of the Mig?Thanks

Look a little ways down on the first page of the Mig & F-86 sticky thread for the link to his webshots account. You'll find them there!

Looks like the WM in one of areas is clearing out the XD stuff. They've marked the figures down to $3, although not much selection - just BOB2 soldiers and a few Japanese. Didn't see any planes and no Avenger.

It seems BadCat got a massive resupply of 1/18 and 1/32 scale from 21st. I think they have just about every item in stock save the Avenger. Badcat has even moved the 21st button higher on thier Home Web Page. I wonder if this is 21st offering an olive branch?

Looks like they got some of the old Viet Nam Mutts with figures - at least that's what the picture shows. It's kind of hard to tell as its listed with the recent green US Halftrack and tan Hannomag, so it could just be the same as the Wal Mart release.

The SmokeII Starfighters in the Luft boxes and the Undertaker P-51s have shown up at the Super Walmart @ 81st and Lewis..
No 32x Corsairs or Stukas yet....

On my lunch break I found a few BoB2 figures at the Westbury walmart, about 12. 1open coat "Shuster" and 2 German tankers "Kendzai" the other 9 were U.S.
On my way home I hit the Massapequa walmart and I see this guy walk by with 4 XD boxes, I'm thinking SALE so I went to the second floor found the XD and no stinken sale. I went to the checkout line and see the guy and we get talking about 1/18 21st and BBI and the dude didn't know 21st had a web site or Small Scale H.Q. (Ground Pounders) was even out there. Maybe we'll get another form member.
OH, the guy got a P-51 Ridge Runner, 2 Mutt jeeps and an RC APC ??? umm whats that a M-113 ? anyway that was 1/2 price and the last one. Total...... $105.37 SO ya know their out there, folks like "The Guy" non members who like the stuff as much as we do.

This is one of those (whining) non-reports. Over the last few weeks I've had the opportunity to check WMs in much of Upstate NY, including Cortland, Auburn, Waterloo, Elmira, Painted Post/Corning, and several in the Rochester area. Nothing new. Zilch. Nada. No BOB2, no Avenger, No M48, no new 32X aircraft. Nothing. It's like a vast waste land (OK, you Downstate New Yorkers, I know what you're thinking...!).

Found a great deal today. I stopped by a local Wal-Mart and found the Smoke II. I was ready to pay the $40 when I got to the register but it rang up at $20!!!!! It wasn't even in the clearance area or marked for clearance. My mouth almost hit the floor. It was at the Wal-Mart in Bremen, Ga off of I-20, Exit 19. There is still one Smoke II left. There are two Avengers, two P-51 Undertakers, a SEAL and TOW Mutt each, and two R/C M113s.


Go Ugly Early in 1/18 scale!

Still waiting and wishing for a 1/18 A-10 Warthog.

That is a darn good deal - especially since they go for over $60 at most small retailers! What would be really funny is to get an Avenger for that price

Now that would be a steal instead of a deal.... !!!!

This same thing happened to me in Dallas with the Flying Undertaker P-51, which rang up for $18.00. Thankfully, I went thru the self serve checkout and no one noticed.

That's awesome Nathan! I need to visit my relatives more often in your neck of the woods.

Smoke II and the flying undertaker in 1/18th showed up in central Mississippi today.I am to broke to buy them

I forgot to mention that the walmart toy department manager has a crush on me......or maybe its just the uniform.Either way I hope I can get lucky with some good discounts.... EOM

bigsarge, WM has a layaway. That is how I buy a lot of my stuff, 10% down and payments for 2 months. Works well for me, better than leaving it on the shelf hoping it is still there when you do have the extra cash for it.

No, there were only two Undertakers there. I went by again this past Friday and the last one was gone.

Scored a Seeman 109 for $8 today. It was the only plane they had, but..

Geeze.........
Some people have all the luck!

Score!!!! Good find!

I have seen the Avengers disappearing quite well here. This is really good news!! They sold better than any other plane to date....

My local Walmart (Olympia, WA) now has four Avengers, one ME-109, and a FW-109D. There a bunch of other 1/32 items as well.

Wha...???
