jlspec-I believe the 8-10 PH P-40s stage last about 3 months, then comes the rudel stuka stage (about 4 of these). Perhaps the f-104, mig15 and p-51 stage has bypassed your TRU completely. When your store is down to two P-40s and 1 stuka, this stock arrangement will remain this way for all eternity- don't believe it? wait and see.
My Toys R Us has sold out of most all the 21st items and removed the shelf tags and moved the craptastic preschool military toys over...the end has come.

This packaging is either old news or a complete surprise to people on this forum. Color me surprised. The Target I found it at is also the only one that carries the 1/18 Bravo Team Abrams instead of the Bradleys and Shermans. The have a huge toy section that was fully stocked and well maintained only 4 days before Christmas. I guess they are a test store and I need to start going there more. I was hoping this meant good things for 21st Century. O'yeah, the boxes were case fresh with no dust or dings. They were not pegwarmers.

I found 4 Rudel Stukas at my local TRU last night
While I certainly don't need a 3rd Stuka, I couldn't help picking one up, especially after all my griping about not finding one.
It is a really great paint scheme for the Stuka and now rivals the old S1 scheme as my all-time favorite. In fact, after six years, I finally dismantled my S1 Stuka and put it back in its box (which was a heart-pounding chore in itself). The Stuka's old sculpting still holds up well with the newer 21c planes

The local TRU has completed a reset of all their shelves and started to restock. There are no more 21st slots or labels in the new configuration. None. This is also consistent with the reset at the nearby Target. All 1:32 21st merchandise there, marketed as 4 Star Military is also deleted and new shelf labels carry only unimax 1:32 in vehicles and planes. It appears to be evident that 21st is exiting the market for the near future, at least in my area.

Greetings
Was to Reading, PA for a hockey game tonight and the TRU there had 1 striped Mig-15, one Smoke II Starfighter and 2 George Starfighters. It's All Star Game week so I will be heading that way a couple of times in the next week if anyone needs that stuff.

Dublin, CA:
F-104 Smoke II
P-51 Flying Undertaker
P-51 Old Crow
Mig 15 North Korean (S1 #925)
P-40 Flying Tiger (2)
Restock of 32x planes and 1/48 planes.
When is the 21st well going to run dry for 1:18 planes? I hope not soon, it's great to see this stuff on the shelves. But realistically, how long can they resupply?

good luck with that- I believe BCA matt when he tells us that they have alot more traffic than one of our ebay listing would; and would actually be able to move it at that price (maybe) to someone- I doubt I would have the kind of patience to try and sell that around those in the know, but if all y'all would buy up everything you see, maybe there'd be some new stuff out there and 21st would be living large- HA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Stopped by a TRU during work today.They had 3 BOB Winter tanker figs,4 of the newer Nam figs,and a Series 1 - M16 Multiple Gun Motor Carriage.I have never been to this TRU so I have no idea how long this stuff has been sittin.I grabbed 2 of the tankers and a BBI weapon set.
