Hi, toys r us in Yonkers new york had the bbi Blackhawk on sale for $23.98. There were 2 on the shelf marked at this price, still rang at the register for $59.99. The cashier adjusted the price. I also picked up a Blackhawk crew/pilot figure.

I haven't seen any of the original copters since around Christmas. I rarely see the Kiowa anymore.

Centone put me onto the Jersey City TRU. Loaded with Blackhawks at full price last time I was there. That's where I found the 1/18 CC's for $2.50 and the BBI Apache for $15. They were loaded with M-41's also at full price. I will get there next week and report.

If anyone in SoCal finds discounted Blackhawks, please let me know! I've been to the TRU in Costa Mesa (near SOuth Coast Plaza) and Tustin Market Place with no luck.

I picked up the apache at bay pkwy in brooklyn, all they had was one kiowa 19.99, 2 shermans 39.99, and my apache. Got the abrams at the tru by the staten island mall. They had one blackhawk full price, a little bird 19.99 and my abrams. I am usually able to hit yonkers,wite plains,bay plaza,nanuet and lic, once a week. I was working in S.I. today so I stopped there and bay parkway. glad I did :wink:
Also Toys r Us now have the desert hummer with Duke figure from the GI Joe line. I saw these both places today. They seem to be shipping with the cobra HISS tanks. These hummers are nice and scaled real well, better than the bbi ones, but there undercarriage is bad it shows that axle and no suspension. but for 14.99 you cant go wrong

The Pleasanton, CA TRU had the BBI Mustang in stock so I used the 20% coupon to get one.

TRU in Bailey's Crossroads got two more AH-64's at $25 and restocked on Shermans and (finally) restocked on Kiowas. The first batch sold out in a couple of days...

TRU in New Dorp (the other TRU on S.I.) has no super deals.

BBI Kiowa's for $19.99
BBI Super Humvee's @ $19.99
BBI Sherman's @ $39.00

Good selection of each.

I'm going to recon my favorite TRU treasure store in J.C., NJ as soon a rain lets up. I don't drive my baby the '73 Buick Duece & a quarter in the rain.

Hi, both the toys r us on bay pkwy in brklyn and the TRU in LIC have received more bbi mustangs. they also had a new 12" bbi wwII deluxe rifleman

Yeah i've seen restock of the following here in SoCal.

BBI mustang - but pilot repaint isn't as good - very flat paint on the face of the figure - plane looked ok though.

Kiowas

Super hummers - also repaints with a little bit different "mud" weathering..at least different than the one i got.

HB TRU = 2 mustangs, 2 Kiowas
SA TRU = Kiowa, Superhummer
Tustin TRU = Sherman, Kiowa, Superhummer

everything still full price

i think i saw another mustang at the Mission Viejo TRU last week too...
(sometimes they all blend together :shock: )
