I wonder if BBTS would be cheaper overall... guess I'll find out once their preorder goes up. I really hope I find these in-store before the .com gets their stock in.
On a side note, anyone wanna buy the TRU Conquest from 2003? MISB

AAA has saved my hide, and family members' hides as well, on many an occasion and I recommend it highly to anyone that drives a lot. Now it helps me out on my Joes... Excellent! |

It's funny though in how when I pre-ordered it, the wording for the two made it almost sound like the stores wouldn't be getting them, but just the online store would be.
Oh well, now it saves me time and trouble tracking them down. If they had the really big set with the MOBAT and stuffas well I would have jumped on that too.

This would allow them to order proper quantities, control when they are sold, and keep costs down by not shipping them out to stores. I wonder if they really are only going to be sold through target.com. It would be a big surprise, but it would make some sense too. We'll see. It might just say that since you can't get these in the store yet. | |

| | Counterstrike Join Date: Dec 2007 Posts: 116 | I just pre-ordered mine. One of each. I never saw a Hiss Tank Exclusive in any targets I frequent. I only saw the Night Specter and Awe Striker. That was just one day. | |

| | Skull Squadron Join Date: Jul 2008 Location: Texas, USA / Netherlands Posts: 270 | I just pre-ordered a Cobra Rattler and a Conquest X-30 and used the -$5 off from retailmenot. Thanks for the heads up guys!! 
They look awesome in their original colors!
I was trying to get at least 2 of each of every vehicle for my collection. I like to display one vehicle with the figure in the vehicle and the extra figure on the shelf. But with so many new releases coming out with retail dates so close to each other, I'll just get one of each.
Does anyone who orders more then 2 Conquests wants to sell an extra Slipstream? XD

Just curious guys, what are you paying for shipping? I paid $6.30. That isn't bad at all. I don't plan on dying in the next month or 2 so I went with standard shipping. There is a Target distribution center 30 miles from my place, maybe that helped??? | |
