Silverdale WA has the OD Sherman only one on shelf. Left it there as i have the two toned one. No tigers and no space for it so i have given up on it till fall.

Could not think of anything to put here.

Saw Two Shermans at a Target in Dallas today. Both the olive and the camo version. All the WWII figures on the shelves too.

FINALLY!!! After weeks upon weeks of checking, the South Portland, ME Target had WW2 figs! I picked up all six Krauts and the half-dozen Yanks. Good looking troops, although I plan on keeping them on their cards until I get a second complete U.S.-German set to stow way. It might be soon as the ones I bought were all the store had out. Have to check back soon.
And what is with these stinkin' Bradleys??? Three more suddenly appeared, one camo and a pair of desert ones. No amount of positive karma/ New Age thought beams from my addled brain could morph them into Tiggers or Shermies. Damn!!!
Actually, I can hardly complain as I have feasted on the FOV 1/32 offerings at this particular store ( the place was "Stug Hub" , man) for the past month when I decided I best grab what I can and stop missing out by telling myself it aint 1/18. I mean, we all gotta get our fix somehow.

Found one Sherman in three stores.I don't know if they are just starting to stock them or if I was lucky to find one.This is the first piece of armor in my collection and it seems really great for the price.

The Houston Target at Memorial Mall has an FOV 1/18 brown/green Sherman.
It's the first FOV Sherman I've seen and I didn't think it was worth $20.

I've been finding Shermans both camo and OD at local Targets oh and Bradlys. Most locations have restocked Bravo team WWII figures a few times, but in the last week or so the pegs are thinning out 1 or 2 Germans and a hand full of US troops.

I've NEVER seen the Sherman or Tiger... Kinda disappointed because, for the price, I'd have loved one of each Sherman and the Tiger... Those just never seemed to come around Pittsburgh, or they've been much more sparse here and gobbled up fast. It's all Bradley's out this way.

Wow, I think that's a first sighting! At Target anyway.. Must mean the Tigers are hitting the shelves again..
Are you able to post a picture?

that's not available at foxhole yet so i guess he hasn't found them at his local Targets yet.
I thought the second wave of Tigers wasnt' due til fall......maybe the line is so successful they rushed the order (thinking wishfully).
i never met an airplane i didn't like...

Is the SKU the same as the S 1 ?

That was fast. Hopefully it won't be 3-4 months until they show in the west, like the Shermans did. I don't think I'll get it, but should the paintscheme look great in person, then perhaps I'll change my mind... Still, great to know they are out ahead of schedule
