Just to let you all know that the IJ Troop Car is available at the Kmarts. They are getting hard to find in Target stores.

I went to a local Kmart and all they had was a jungle cutter (1) and 5 figures.

I was just at Walmart and saw the troop car. I read on the Walmart site that it was an online exclusive.

I found a few at Toys R Us last week, which is where I bought mine.

I just found a IJ Troop car @ WM yesterday.
The box was caved in and got the it for 14.76
Opened it up and no damage what so ever.
Did you guys know there is a "Diorama" backdrop that you can set up with the troop car?
It is the lining inside the box and you fold it a different way to set up a backdrop to set you car in.
I put it together, but ended up throwing it out. It look a little cheesie.
Go try, Hasbro...

Considering the diorama setups that come with the vehicles, I think Hasbro is trying to get into our little realistic military toy/model niche market with the Indiana Jones line, in a direct way that they have not done before.
After all, I've never seen a toy line from Hasbro with such realistic-looking figures and vehicles (for the most part) that were not in some way tied in with a super hero, science fiction film or cartoon show. Even though some of their German figures and vehicles have inaccuracies, they are still German soldier figures and accurate-enough vehicles AND they are being made by Hasbro. Such items were once only the fodder of only 21c and a few select small companies.
Besides, how often are you going to see Hasbro make a toy line that includes Boy Scout and Professor figures that come packaged with ancient holy relics and not spring-loaded guns?
BTW, still waiting to find those elusive Vogel, Henry Jones Sr. and Elsa figures
