My first attempt at troop building was in 83. It was after xmas and me and my mom was t 3D clearance shopping. On a end cap was a display of Cobra Officers and Soldiers marked $1.25 each . I had $40.00 xmas money and I knew she wouldn’t let me get more than 1 of each so I told her I was going to the lobby to play video games and shot straight to the end cap. With the help of a employee ( didn’t think of getting a cart) I made it to check out with 15 of each and out to the truck to start opening them and wait for my mom . It was worth the Butt busting I got when she saw all the open packets
i'm a troop builder and i love i even find myself hideing them in the store if i dont have the funds to buy them at that moment, then i'll go back and pick them up later. it's a sickness i need help!!!!!!!!! lol
