21C King Tiger in Target

Post by Threetoughtrucks » Mon Mar 31, 2008 9:17 pm

21C brought out a sneaky release of the long awaited KT in Target.

List price is $79.95

The Toy Manager said the 88mm will be on shelves in a month.

He didn't know anything about a B-25 (but then he said he didn't know what a B-25 was AND THEN HE SAYS, his distribution people told him to make room for a 21C two engine bomber...... a big plane, BY THE END OF SUMMER).

Good news at lost :wink:

TTT

HAPPY APRIL FOOLS DAY

TTT, when will you learn to tell your toy companies and numbers apart... it was a 1:18 FOV version and it was $29.95, complete with a better paintscheme and weathering :wink:

After the King Tiger sighting at ToysRUS---another sighting of ToysRUS building hangars adjacent to their stores to accommodate the big-box 21st Century 1/18 Phantom.

Three: I was actually pretty stoked with your concept...but you just didn't do it right!!!! :evil:

You need to play it out a little and let it build out some legs...It's not a prank unless you have some sort of pay off! This one would have pushed out some great fervour throughout the day.

Bummer, dude! Great story, totally believable, but you didn't commit to it.

Sorry guys, but I got mine and I have already sold the extra KT's I found today to friends.

NO KT FOR YOU.

Oh yee of little faith.

I'll post pics of my KT as soon as Aferg breaks down and gets a camera so we can see his.......

I really do like it.....no interior, no crew, about as much detail as any Hasbro from the 60's and all for $79.99. What a deal.. :roll:

TTT

First and last for the day....... I love Aprils Fool Day.
