For those who don't know, if you go to target.com and search 21st century toys, you'll find they have a nice selection of 1/18 items. If you're looking for something GET IT THERE! I just had a visit with someone who told me that the only way we'll see new 1/18 is if a mass marketer can buy them by the thousands. Obviously, target has set this up to see how well 1/18 sells. This is a chance to save our hobby!!!

Toysrus.com is also expanding their on-line offerings by quite a bit. I've not seen the 104s offered before:

I like Target.com. Quick service and reasonable prices on 1/32 FoV. The only sad thing is that they don't sell 4 Star-military, or those exclusive Action Series tanks online. Try to see if you get free shipping.

I hope we start seeing the 1/18 in target stores soon.

Target has been selling XD for a long time now (years) but it was always way more expensive than Walmart..

Target has had some pretty good deeals in the past. They sold the F-16 for under $60 with free shipping at one time.

Yep. Nothing new here.

I'd like to get some of the 4 Star stuff too, but alas, nothing in my AO. I called Target and the closest was one single plane in Branson which is a 100 mile very crooked drive.

Guys, one of the F-104s at TRU.com is a paint scheme I've never seen before, in person. I've wanted it. It's the bare metal with the shooting star... The description in text matches the picture.

I want. I drool. I'm torn. I'm mainly a 1:32 man but boy howdy do those big jets get me pumped. God I want more. I've been so desperate lately with the same 32x rotting on the shelves.

I think I'll wait though, even though it's uncommon, I'd rather have the Luftwaffe version. Not to mention I'm also thinking about convincing my dad to buy the Thunderbirds F-16. He LOVES F-16s and the Thunderbirds, we see them every year... it could work.

God I need a job. I really can't juggle college and a job. Tried it once.

Hey! Glad to see you're back! That's the s1 air force scheme f-104. I highly doubt they'd send you one if you ordered it. You'd probably end up with a "Really George".

I've been up all night trying to catch up on half a months worth of posts. I went through the 1:32 forum first. Almost cleaned house here, and on to the others. Man, I missed a lot.
