Pretty cool find. Three of the six sets below come with wall and window portions that can be used alone or interconnected to form sections of destroyed walls or buildings. Very nice for dioramas and posed figures.

Each set that has wall sections contains two that connect together.

There appear to be four unique wall pieces that can be assembled in a wide variety of ways thanks to some smart design. You could make a variety of small destroyed buildings or even one huge one if you had enough pieces..

Well, I was waiting while they put new tires on the Monte and wandered down to the Benton Harbor Big Lots. I found the command center ($30) and it looked like they had several figure packs that they were about to put out too. Still debating whether I want to pick one of the command centers up.
They also had a few 1/6 sets. including the Kayak set. Somehow, I don't see Ice, Blaze, or Harley in a kayak. Ferrari yes. Kayak no...

Good god I hate Big Lots. Next to the Dollar General it's the most ghetto store in town. But I want some walls and a SWAT doggie so what's a guy to do. Image

That's a great way to add some buildings for your XD soldiers and at a great price too!

Here in Columbus, the Big lots at great western shopping center has a mother-load of the PTE stuff. The bridge, the A10, the guard tower, hummers, tanks, and a slew of the figure packs.(horses/camels...etc) and the 3-packs. I love this PTE stuff!!!!! :D

the firefighters look really nice, but the building parts were already available last year....i have used them in my diorames previously.

These are something I have yet to get my grubby little mits on... A friend sent me one once, but otherwise I've not managed to spot these at Big Lots nearby. All the single-figure-sets we got are military ones, and pretty much boring... Unless you dig horses/camels/half-tents.

I've got about 3 more Big Lots stores to check though, so I hopefully luck out eventually.

I stuck the camel in our Christmas nativity set last year. It's even in the right scale! :lol: :lol:
