Hey A.A, if you're looking for cheap, cool fodder, take a look around for M.A.R.S. heroes.
I bought a good bunch of them, and they're really cool. With a bit of work, you can adapt all the parts to BATs to personalize them. These are Joe sized, and the heads can be adapted easily too These are a bit smaller, but they come with a lot of weapons and gadgets, and there are 9 different robots, including one that has mini gatling guns for arms. They also came with some awesome bases.

They costed here around 10 bucks (the 3 pack), but that's because of import tax, i think it should run there for 4-5 bucks. Still a nice price for a good bunch of stuff. The ones on the first picture are the single card guys, the three on the second picture came in a big package as a set. Here, a detailed review.

Aw, pity.
The cool thing is they're really cheap, i guess is not worth the trouble of asking someone to get them and pay a lot of shipping. :S keep an eye for them, anyways. Maybe TRU or some other store has them (not only toy stores). The guns the 3pk robots have are great for BATs attachments. I used some sort of gatling gun for my Overkill, looks really good. The bases are incredible detailed. One of them is like some ruined portion of a wall, with some tank's tracks on the ground and ammo shells everywhere, incredibly awesome (i think the bases can be connected between them to form a bigger base). I'd gladly pay the 5 bucks just for the 4 bases. The only issue is that they're traslucent, but that's easy tos solve with some paint. (the two white bases on the pic are fire and ice, in that case the fact they're traslucent helps a lot)

Signed on for Waffle Brigade this morning. Can't say I minded. In fact, it was awesome.

Well, i think the revision cases for POC are hitting now. I caught a Wal*mart toy dept worker with a case of joes, 2 cases of SW and like 4 cases of IronMan!? toys. I offered to help her merchandise them as an excuse to snag from the joe box. I helped her tighten up the aisle too, as some ghetto rugrats had ransacked it. snagged POC AV, POC FF, and POC BH so my AV squad is complete now. If i stumble upon more AVs in the weeks to come, they will be offered up to other tankers @ cost+shipping

My local wal-mart lady knows that when the joe cases come in they don't get put out until I stop by :P |

:p nice set up. I used to get that service once upon a time. I think the toy manager had the hots for me. She was like 19 though and I am happily married..but she would still give me the heads up on new stock and let me root through it. Now she's transferred to Pharmacy. I set her up with one of my friends though, and they seem to be doing well. The new Toy manager is a cast iron bitch though... :(
