chap mei vehicles

[miked]

Can anyone tell me where I can purchase the larger Chap Mei items like jeeps and tanks online? I live in Brooklyn, New York and other than what's available at TRU through Elite Operations and Rite Aid Drug Stores, I can't find these awesome pieces anywhere. Any advice?

[Shogi]

I don't know about online, but I've seen Target have some (I don't know if they're Chap Mei but they look like it) in their "generic" aisle (All the toys have the same blue box) Walmart has the same thing but they're in red boxes (I haven't seen many military toys like chap mei one in wally world though)

[C.I.A.D.]

Mike, check out either odd lots and/or big lots (same company, different name).

If you're in BK, there's one on knickerbocker st.

If you're up for a trainride, head to 34th street & take the 4 train in to the bronx, get off on Fordham Road. There's one right off of the trainstation on the SE side of Fordham.

[apacolypse]

If all else fails...check out www.smalljoes.com they seem to stock them pretty heavily. I only purchased once from them...and others have been hit or miss with them.

Thanks for the tip. I didn't know their was a big lots/ odd lots in the in the metropolitan area. That's good news. It's also good to know that there are other fans in my area! Now I know why I can't find any of the new figures in my local stores!

[kingofpain26]

for the record. those vehicles you saw at target were the new sculpt lanard toys, not chap Mei.

[topnotch97]

who? me?

you're talking about those "kool toyz" right?

[Shogi]

Naw he was talking to me. Personally Corps and Chap Mei vehicles fall into the same catagory in my head :)

[topnotch97]

ah....

btw, does anyone know if there are any Soldier Force toyline floating around stores? you know, places you don't usually expect to see.

[topnotch97]

so there's no way we can get this Osprey, right?

[newtypejuggalo128]

I saw some of these at Big Lots this morning. Unfortuneately, most of the cool stuff was on the back of the box. The police force one looked like it had a big monster truck for the bad guyz which screaming Dreadnok custom vehicle to me!

[topnotch97]

is this worth getting for Cobra Vipers?

available at TRU. retails at $16.99.

[panzer]

Topnotch.
The APC is waaaaaay underscale though as a Cobra light recce vehicle,this would be perfect. Turret takes One figure.
No other hatches work on it though,so maybe some customizing if you want to have an interior & working hatches.
The ATV though is a perfect update for Cobra.

[sargent dude]

I hope big lots will be carrying some of these

[Driftbot]

that heavy combat boat is SIIIIICK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
wow i need that for shipwreck and myself to provide harbor security, maybe even some riverine action... :)

cool finds, people!

[topnotch97]

something i bought today at TRU.

retail: $16.99

[topnotch97]

it looks nice and could be customized a little bit. but fitting the Joes or Cobra or any other 3.75 in figure won't fit.

repaint!!!! repaint!!! repaint!!!

[minstrelboy]

DAMMIT!!! Why isn't there anything like these around here? I've been looking and looking and the only things I've seen are the Police "Paddy Wagon" and the Thunderbolt jet. I know there are some great potential with the other vehicles from this line, but like the PTE/World Peacekeepers stuff disappeared last year, this stuff is more and more scarce, while the stuff replacing them on the shelves is smaller and crappier looking. That chopped Humvee looking thing is pretty cool. I really want a boat, though. Ebay has nothing, and none of the other stores online have much either.

I saw these today at my TRU and although fig's wont fit, it still looks cool and so does the motorcycle that comes with it. And both vehicles "transform" into a type of gunner station.

[Tracker]

these chap mei vehicles are interesting

[slim19722]

I decided to pick up the humvee set, cuz it will go good with my S.HI.E.L.D. guys i'm working on. After getting it in hand, I think all you gotta do is dremel out the area under the dash board to get the figures to sit. Detail is cool, all 4 doors open and each has decal of a monitor on it. 2 gattling guns for the atv(made of rubber) and the atv transforms into a 2-man battle station. Pic's aint the greatest as my camera sucks, but u can get a idea of each one. The big cannon the humvee is removable. Shots of both in battle mode.

I think that boat has been showing up lately in TRU under their "Elite Operations" line

Personally, I'd maim or possibly kill for that Black Widow plane!

[topnotch97]

it ain't Chap Mei but looks nice

it's worth getting i think. $10
