1:18 FOV Marines back at Retail

Post by Fritzkrieg » Sat Oct 31, 2009 6:59 am

I found some of the first wave of FOV modern figs, had been restocked at my local Target. Hopefully, we'll see WWII figs at retail again soon.

Unimax said they the WW2 line is not going to be sold in stores any more, just online retailers.

Same here, the Army & Marines figs were reloaded a month ago when the S.O.F. Series was depleted. I doubt we'll see any WWII figs again through, maybe if we're lucky it might show up repacked to TRU.

I've been seeing them as well. Not that I need any more, but they are great figures.

My local Target is the worst, they have nothing, ever.

Hi Corey,

Is there any chance in the future E-tailers like yourself will get hold of FOV/Bravo Team SOF series Paratroopers, Seals & Deltas? I know they are currently Target exclusives, just wondering would that contract run its course and the figs released for general retail?

Thanks!

That's odd, is this just happening to you now?
For my location, out of 27 Targets, only three got rid of their Bravo Team stock completely four months ago, and still is today. Interestingly, these three Targets are within distance of one another, forming an oddly shaped triangle.

Stug, Yes they did have Fearless Forces, One location had 3 pegs of multiply figure carded figs and 2 pegs of single carded figs. The other has an assortment I just wasn't paying attention...not in to them..... :roll:

Sky Ray, these 2 targets have just been reset in the last month. Everything that was in one spot last month is in another this month. :evil: except the FOV stuff......AWOL!

I've seen the modern troops around lately in KC. If the M1's and M3's are rereleased, I'm going to feel a bit guilty after mine sold for more than my F-18.

The Bradleys have been rereleased in TRU already.
