Any more FOV modern figs?

Post by MG40K » Wed Apr 02, 2008 5:56 pm

My Target has not gotten any more FOV
modern figs since they were first released. Only WWII figs now.

I was wondering if they got delayed or, if they were discontinued. Has anyone else had this happen in their area, or knows why? :?

I have still been seeing some of the modern Troopers here in Columbus, But the WW2 figs seem to be scarce. :roll:

They have been shipping alternate cases of WWII and modern up here in the Great North West. I have quit looking recently because all I really need now is a Tiger. Or four. :wink:

I don't think there will be any "new" waves of the modern troops, just re-releases of the old ones. Unimax got it pretty well covered with the last round in terms of figure types, accessories, etc. They don't need to really make modern Special Ops troops as BBI has those covered. They also have a good selection of WWII figure types (inasmuch as the US and German figures are concerned) though some Brits or Russians would be cool.

What I'm really eager to see are the 1:18 Historical Legends figures 8)

That's strange, I don't recall seeing or reading about anyone finding the tan-colored Tiger, how the heck did Foxhole Toys get ahold of them?! :shock: :evil:

:shock: :shock: They got Tiger I's wow. I just picked up a Sherman at Target for $21.71 thats with tax, at that price I had to.
These prices are a little on the high side. But if you got the only Tigers in town (country) I guess you can charge 50 + bucks for a $20.00 tank. Still great find.
Tomd, thanks for the intel.

Thanks to Stug's info, I liberated and recruited most of the modern FOV guys from that Target :D Now I found some WWII guys at another target - getting scarce down here now due to my hording them :shock: :oops: So, look soon for a soldiers sales list in BST forum with more FOV modern guys with FOV WWII heads ;) Nice because they will be direct replacements 8) Da General
