I know it says walmart sightings, but the buckhead tru has 13 or 14 bbi corsairs for those still looking- 39.95. By the way-is it too early to ask what the skn number is on the green zero and will tru be getting any of them?

found S2 japanese and Market garden figures at my local WM, not full case but 4 or 5 of each( someone must have beat me to the punch)

But, I found something that was more interesting than that....
WC51 weapons carrier, single rear axle, roughly the size of the command car but with a weapons carrier truck bed( shorter obviously) and no figure included
is this new?
I don't have the command car or the weapons carrier, but I picked this one up thinking it was a WC63 weapons carrier
sorry no pics I'll see if I can get some for you

NICE :D
That is a "Beep" I believe, and played multiple roles including ambulance. :) Glad to finally hear about some new armor, even if it is little...
Why no driver? :?

Digger, I saw something at WM last night. I saw a shelf tag in the XD section that read "1/18 MIL MED VEHICLE". I don't know what this would be referring to. The only thing there was the tandem weapons carrier. The date on the tag was 1/11/06. Could this be it? It would make a good ambulance. :?: :?

Good news on the new truck - hope they find their way here. Also, if anyone still has the bbi Corsair at $39.95, be advised they were increased here to $44.95 just before Christmas, so you might want to grab one at the lower price.

also, on the back of the WC51 box they show pics of the S1 panzer, M113, p51 ridge rider(I think that's what it says) and TBM 1 avenger

I saw a 1:1 scale wc51 for sale last year here in Peoria. I never stopped to see how much they wanted.
How many custom 1/18 models can be made from this? Ambulance, cargo truck, or have 50 cal. mounted?

Went on a roadtrip to So. Cal today and stopped at a couple stores along the way. The best surprise was at a store just south of my area in Selma, Ca. actually had a very nice selection of Xd products including Graff Me-109Gs, both versions of the US & German Halftracks & M-41s, the RC vehicles, a bunch of S1 Japanese figures, BoB troops, and Marines. There were also the new 32x vehicles, the figure sets and the playsets. They were all concentrated in one section of the store, too. I think I'll frequent this store more often, since it was rather easy to get to and had a better overall selection than any of the other stores I've recently visited. I also couldn't resist the gray XD SDK-251 for $22!

A store further down the road in Valencia, Ca. had caseloads of the S1 BoB troops and the S1 Marines.

Fantastic! Glad you were able to find 'em!! ...Seeing that 21C went out of their way to make a WHOLE one case each for this Walmart to put on their shelf!! Of course, that shelf is now empty until Walmart can order another ONE case to put back on that shelf! So at this rate, I may STILL never be able to find them in my area.
Congrats again on the great find!!!
