Yeah,
The 2 tone camo is here in the Midwest (Missouri) at TRU as well. My repaint still looks better.

i saw the repaint of the pte raptor here now. Looks much nicer/more realistic than the black one, imo.

Goofy markings though. I may pick one up for my Iron Man to clinge to. :lol:

Anyone heard of any upcoming new pte releases? Been a long time.
i never met an airplane i didn't like...

I thought the same thing about Iron Man!!!
I haven't heard of any new stuff.
If anyone spots any more of the grey camo F-22, i'd like to know where they are being sold these days. They have never released them in TRU stores over here.

well they just showed up in canada, so i would bet you'll see them in the UK by Christmas time.

It has a nicely tinted canopy this time around; looks better than the clear one on the black version.

Fingers crossed.
I have five of the black one in my stash, but i could do with a few of the standard camo colour for an air wing without having to "ruin" one of my black ones.

Does PTE re-release items?

I really feel bad about holding off a month on the headquarters and middle eastern village battle zone playsets that were gracing Big Lots! stores last Dec.

I got lucky and found an Abrams on ebay for $10, but that was a tank collector blowing out his collection (picked up a die cast tiger for $20 and a el cheapo r/c missile launcher for my nephews for $10 too).

It's about time to start the PTE watch at Big Lots. The first recon report of a sighting of a Power Team redeployment came in last year on 7/30.
