I found the George version of the F-104 at Walmart last week. I got it for 15 dollars. I was ready to pay full price, and I had a nice surprise when the check out lady told me the total. I also got the Big Beautiful Doll P-51 at the same time, but that one was regular prce.

I also spoke to a Toy mananger in one of the stores and she confirmed that after this last round of XD, they won't be getting anymore, and she was quite happy about it..

I wouldn't depend on a Walmart employee to know anything... I was once in a toy isle and overheard two WM employess during the reset ask "what is a hot wheel?"

You'll see, the mid week of November everything that is ready will be dumped in, like last year.

Most of the toys I have seen being clearenced are on the first two rows in the garden center.

Migs and various 104s on clearance for $25 at one of my local WMs today. I already had all of them....

Maybe 21st Century will put all their marbles in Toys R Us? And they must have a pretty good deal going with the online retailers.

Hmm. There are about 5 P-51's on the tippy top shelf at my neighboord WM. A mix of BBD and Old Crow. Even thugh I stopped collecting 1:18 planes I might have to get some Wallydrone(TM) up on a ladder and see how much they scan for. With all this talk of reduced prices it might make a nice investment for Ebay.

The new supercenter in Yelm, Washington has Mustangs and F-104's on sale for 25 dollars each. Every thing else XD appears to have disapeared.

$25 planes here now too...

I saw:

-US Jets (Sabers?)
-Migs
-Mustangs (Japanese kill markings on the side)
-a lone German plane that now the make escapes me, but it has a red sort of starburst paintjob onthe nowse and maybe underneath? Looked sharp regardless and is tempting me...

That's the FW-190 I believe. I have a 1:72 scale version. Damn I forgot to ask about the planes yesterday.

That IS NOT an FW-190, but rather the S1 Bf-109G, in the markings of Herman Graff's airplane. I like the sunburst pattern on the nose, but the aircraft lacks some of the finer features that characterized the later XD Bf-109Gs.

There were tons of the "Graff" '109Gs in my area that sat around for ever back in 2005-2006. They comparatively sold worse than the FW-190Ds! Further, my stores kept restocking them as opposed to newer items, so they never went away and only at the very end were even discounted. However, after the discounts at the beginning of this year, they finally disappeared.

If you like it, I would get it as they've all but disappeared now

I believe there was not one graf 109 that crossed the continental divide with the exeption of BCA or member trades/sales

I wouldn't doubt it, considering Wal Mart's craptacular distribution

We had tons of them here in the west, and only after a long while got the other Bf-109s. Never did get the M-48s and gray Panzer IVDs...

immeww2 · Post by **immeww2** » Fri Sep 28, 2007 8:16 pm

I did spot a few M48's at the Oakland, CA WM when the S2 version came out. That was the only store that I ever saw them at though.

Found the "Squitch" F-86 today in Hutchinson, Mn for $25 on clearance. Had to grab that one.

Plenty of BBD, Old Crow, and Huff F-86's, and a couple PH P-40's left.

That was indeed the plane. Quite slick and nice looking... I'm tempted if it's there after payday next week to pick one up, but man I just don't have teh space for planes. I'll have to ponder that somewhat I guess.

We had a lot of that particular paintjob I recall, but that's the only one I've seen of late.

For the most part it's jets, jets, jets... And Mustangs galore, which are getting to the point of obnoxious!

The German planes we had all came and went, and I didn't really keep much track on them, but that paintjob was the last one that you still see on occassion. I do recall other paintjobs that sold a bit better though.

I've always had the first ME109 they released around, so I never intended to get another German fighter save for maybe a jet, but now with the discount I'm sort of tempted. I got the Avenger last year at this same WM for $35 (they had TONS for that price and even substantially less at one point) all due to a 50% cut, so maybe I should cave again. I dunno.

tmanthegreat · Post by **tmanthegreat** » Tue Oct 02, 2007 10:47 am

Well, my local Wal Mart that had the $25 XD planes has now completely sold out of them. (I got my two!) Glad they all went and didn't sit around for two years like past releases, but I wonder when the next new items will come?

immeww2 · Post by **immeww2** » Thu Oct 04, 2007 8:40 pm

Found some planes further discounted to $15 at a Northern, CA WM. Couldn't resist so I picked up a few more at that price.

immeww2 · Post by **immeww2** » Fri Oct 05, 2007 9:03 am

I think so too. Although it was frustrating to find the items you wanted, the prices were favorable.

Rogue · Post by **Rogue** » Fri Oct 12, 2007 6:46 am

I just missed 5 TBM's for $5 each.

Yes those are real tears!

B24guy · Post by **B24guy** » Fri Oct 12, 2007 7:28 am

Wow, 5 dollar avengers? Wow.

immeww2 · Post by **immeww2** » Fri Oct 12, 2007 8:28 am

Hard to believe that the Avengers are still lurking around at WM's.

B24guy · Post by **B24guy** » Fri Oct 12, 2007 8:37 am

I went by two Walmarts last night. Not a one 1:18th scale model there.
