There appear to be four unique wall pieces that can be assembled in a wide variety of ways thanks to some smart design. You could make a variety of small destroyed buildings or even one huge one if you had enough pieces..

Well, I was waiting while they put new tires on the Monte and wandered down to the Benton Harbor Big Lots. I found the command center ($30) and it looked like they had several figure packs that they were about to put out too. Still debating whether I want to pick one of the command centers up.
They also had a few 1/6 sets. including the Kayak set. Somehow, I don't see Ice, Blaze, or Harley in a kayak. Ferrari yes. Kayak no...

Thanks HS, I was excited to see PTE create these and am looking forward to what some of you more creative folks might come up with..

Good god I hate Big Lots. Next to the Dollar General it's the most ghetto store in town. But I want some walls and a SWAT doggie so what's a guy to do.

That's a great way to add some buildings for your XD soldiers and at a great price too!

Here in Columbus, the Big lots at great western shopping center has a mother-load of the PTE stuff. The bridge, the A10, the guard tower, hummers, tanks, and a slew of the figure packs.(horses/camels...etc) and the 3-packs. I love this PTE stuff!!!!!

These are something I have yet to get my grubby little mits on... A friend sent me one once, but otherwise I've not managed to spot these at Big Lots nearby. All the single-figure-sets we got are military ones, and pretty much boring... Unless you dig horses/camels/half-tents.
I've got about 3 more Big Lots stores to check though, so I hopefully luck out eventually.

I stuck the camel in our Christmas nativity set last year. It's even in the right scale!
