Local WM has Dual pack for $19 also. But my local Hobby People store had a sale going on. And even though a swore I would not go beyond 1/18 vintage jets ( WWII will always be my passion) I could not resist the BBI 1/18 F-16 Falcon "wolf Pack" on sale for 59.00!!!. So now I own at least one modern aircraft.

oh the sorrow....

It will stack with
Google Checkout 10.00 Off 30.00 or 20.00 off 50.00 promo.
What is the trick to getting the $20 off of $50? I've only seen the $10 off of $30.
It depends on the store that you are buying from.
Buy.com did it. But I think TRU will only do 10 off 30

No 21st p-51 for me until they fix the bent prop or until I find a way to fix it with out having to buy a bbi stang to cannibalize its prop.

I agree. I've built models for years but I'm just not comofortable with sawing apart or trying to bend the prop on the Mustang.

Avengers, R/C Panzers and 32x dual packs seem to be had in large quantites as many Walmarts have them on sale at clearances prices.. On the plus side, I noticed much of the old XD/32x stuff that had been gathering dust is also gone!!!! So the spring re-set may see the new stuff here sooner than I thought..

You guys are killin me with your talk about $49 Avengers at Wal-Mart

I live in MN, just outside the Twin Cities and the local Wal-Marts haven't had any 1/18 scale aircraft for quite some time. I have recently been to the Brooklyn Park, Woodbury, and Fridley stores and nothin. If anyone lives near the Minneapolis or St. Paul area and knows of a Wal-Mart that has any 1/18 scale aircraft let me know. I am after the Avenger, bare metal F-104, any F-86 or Mig 15, and any version of the ME-109's.

Yeah, Wally even had this on their website (too bad we'll never see our stuff on the site, but they can list $1500 Star Wars collectibles). They also have a full end cap of 'em in my AO for $15. I may just have to snag one for dremelization.

Poway, San Diego Walmart has reduced their XD18 vehicles to $5...US Halftrack, Pak40, Stuka Fuss, and Pioneer Hanomag. I cleaned them out, but keep an eye peeled elsewhere.

The Madera, Ca. Wal Mart had the new Halftracks, Pak, plus a few old 1:18 vehicles discounted to $17. A couple Fresno area Wal Marts have the 1:18 RC tanks (mostly the S1 paintschemes) discounted to $30. In a surprising note, at one store, 4 of the S1 "Red Nose" ME-109Gs, in the old blue 21c boxes, were finally discounted to $30 after nearly two years sitting on the shelves and going nowhere. The same store also had a couple tropical Stukas discounted to $30 as well.

Found the Pirates of the Caribbean Mill clearanced at WalMart for $10 now! You can't even buy the stone plastic sheets to build it for that much. And don't accept the sale price marked on the 21st clearanced vehicles. Scan them! Found some 1:18 Mutts marked $17 but scanned $10 also! No WWII vehicles left!

I got really lucky the Super Walmart in Columbia TN had the 251/1 marked down to $5.00. I got the only one left. There were no other vehicles in the store

My local Wally has the Panzer II RC on clearance for $30. They have about 15 sitting on the clearance aisle.
If they get to $15, I'll snap them up.
