Philippe,
I will help if I can, but these have still not shown up yet nor been restocked in the ones that had them.

Well, thank you anyways, it is a great plane :wink: The "4 Star" line must be seeing really limited distribution for prices to jump on a plane like that. You can almost buy a premium Corgi diecast P-51 for that price :shock:

Double Nuthin' Mustang - Looking for 15 Units

Post by Warpaint » Wed Aug 27, 2008 8:18 am

This plane is being distributed exclusively by Target (and very poorly I might add). 21st Century Toys has been very secretive about this new agreement with Target. Even though I am a 21st Century Toys distributor, I wasn't given the chance to offer this aircraft to my customers. Hopefully, this is not a trend that is going to continue will 21st Century as it has left a lot of people frustrated, including several large retailers.

I have gotten my hands on a few of them and they are pretty sharp aircraft. I still need to find about 15 to fill current orders that I have, including 10 for the daughter of the actual pilot of this aircraft (for their grandchildren). If anyone out there sees them in a store I would be interested in speaking with you about purchasing them from you.

Please feel free to contact me.

These schemes have shown up at a couple Wal Marts in Illinois. Very hard to find though.

Four Star Military must be the Target packaging. I noticed that they had some armor in the same packaging.

I will also keep an eye out at Walmart and have been watching a few on E-bay as well, but they tend to get a little pricey.

Double Nuthin

I just picked up a second Double Nuthin P-51 at Wal-mart last night. Maybe they will start showing up all over soon. At this Wal-mart they put only a single plane on the shelf at a time. I am going to check this store again tonight. If I have any success I will be happy to share.

I've only managed to find two or three of them at Target and never more than 1 at the same store.

Yeah, I see now that both the new Mustang and 190 are offered in the Target 4 Star line and standard 21st 32xw. So much for a Target exclusive.

Yep, both Walmart and Target appear to have them if you happen to get lucky and find them on the shelf somewhere...

The only thing different is the packaging...

I saw double when I was at Target picking up my GI Joe Rattler and Conquest today. They also had the Heidi Marder III which looked very nice but I didn't have the extra cash. Double had a horrible paint job. The national insignia on the top wing was all bleeding and scratched and there were gouges, scratches, smudges and fingerprints all over the bird. I finally see one in person and its a stinkburger. :cry: :evil: :evil:

I will go back for a that Marder though. It was almsot perfectly weathered too, not overdone or sloppy.

I must have stopped at 8 Targets this weekend on my driving route from southern California back to the central San Joaquin valley. Not a single one had any sign of the new 21c items. The Wal Marts didn't have the repackaged versions either. In fact, the only Four Star items I've ever seen in person at a Target were two Panzer 38s that were discounted to $5...

I often have to wonder why it is always the states where hurricanes and tornados frequent that get all the good items on their store shelves. The major retail chains should realize that there is far more of a chance for their items to get blown or washed away than there is in the western states. Yes, we do get fires and earthquakes, but the fires occur in rural areas and earthquakes strong enough to cause damage occur only about every 15 to 20 years if even that. Not annually like hurricanes or tornados. So, the logic should be to send the items to where they will not be destroyed first, then get them to the rest of the country as they need them. Those living in the midwest or south should be buying disaster supplies over toys anyways :wink:
