Well, only one of the two Targets in my AO carry the 4-Star line and that one never has more than one of each of the shelf. So it took me a few times before I found a Double that wasn't fubar. So it appears that not all stores are getting 4-Star and those that do aren't getting very many.

As of yet, none of the Targets in my area carry the 4 star line. Further, from other reports, it would seem that 21c items at Target were very sparse in the westernmost states in general...

So, I find 21c at Target to be nothing to celebrate about. As usual, those living in the midwest and south get all the goodies. Woo hoo... It was ultimately better having 21c items available at Wal Mart, even if it did take the products six months to arrive :roll:

Come to think of it, I've only ever seen one of the new WWII figs with the posed legs and arms. :x

Found one the other day at Target in the exclusive Four Star Military box. The Focke Wolf was also there as well along with two playsets.

I was hopeful that after the Olympics there would have been a resurfacing of 21C Aircraft at Wal-Mart and TRU.
Unfortunately, I have not seen any 4 Star Military or 21C around here since August.
I was really hoping for a Spitfire Mk. VIII or Mk. IX. :cry:

However, by sheer luck, I found both 4 Star Military P-51D "Double Nuthin'" and FW-190 F8 "Black 2" on eBay for $36 + $10 s/h. ($23 /ea.)
They have some minor flaws and blemishes, but otherwise they're in very good condition.

Has there been any word on the future of 21st Century Toys? ...or who will pick up the 1/32 torch?

I was floored to find a double or nothing at WM last week but it had terrible paint apps and even I had to pass it by. It is a sad day when that happens...

That's what happened all three times I've seen Double! :( The worst QC on any plane I've hunted. With the Spit only the first had a fingerprint, but that was it.
