Oh! I love the PTE Dunebuggy. I wish I had gotten more than one.
But I hated the out of scale Mk 19 GL. So I got a bbi XM320, drilled a new hole and mounted it in front. And JC Penny's PTE Navy sale is still going on Get 3 Boats, 6 figs, and a load of accessories for $6.99 plus shipping JCPenney : 60-Pc. Navy Seal Playset Cooll! I did the same thing with my buggy but i went a step further and replaced the 50 cal. top with one for The Forces of Valor line which look a lot better and figs can sit in that back seat and actually man the gun now.

WTH....it figures that when I finally figure out where to get this stuff my Big Lots closes in my town. Anyone have any of this stuff they are willing to sell or know where to get it.

You used to be able to get the buggies at TRU, but I haven't seen any in a long time. You may be able to find some at KayBee Outlets (if any are still around).
And JC Penny had playsets and the boats, as I mentioned above edit it looks like the big sets are gone from JCP Last edited by ogre_h; 12-11-2008 at 04:05 PM.. |

Any KB should have some.
It looks like KB is going out of business now. :(

I just picked up a bunch of the PTE stuff from Big Lots. LOVE the Little Bird and I'm eyeballing the Blackhawk TRU has for $24.99. I was disappointed because I couldn't find the set with the locker and bunk bed though. What size is this set?

I haven't seen this set in stores yet. My son wants a ton to build a barracks for his cobra troopers. The set retails for $3.00 and is in the same series as the horse and the camel.

Thanks, I figured it would be in that assortment.
Turns out the Blackhawk was marked down to $19.98 at the TRU I went to. Of course I'm not sure this price is at every TRU. |

FINALLY saw these guys today (TRU is a hike for me, rarely get to go). Spotted the Black Hawk, the Patrol Boat, the Raptor, and a few odds 'n' ends. I was never gonna get the Hawk (have the bbi Pave Hawk), but I seriously paused over the Patrol Boat. In the end, passed. I did pick up the F-22 Raptor, however.
A few thoughts... 1) After seeing pics on the Tank, I was REALLY surprised by how small it is. I figured it would be roughly as big as the bbi F-18 and F-16, but it's tiny next to those. 2) While it does seem a bit cheaper than the Joe vehicles, it's closer to them than to the bbi/21st Century Toys stuff. In fact, that coupled with the size makes it feel like a REAL natural addition to the Conquest and Rattler. They make a natural group, and the F-18 and F-16 really stand out as separate. 3) I was never going to repaint it the way some Tankers have, though I am really jealous of their skill. Still, I am sorely tempted to grab some IG or regular Cobra stickers for it... the black really works for a Cobra jet, and I figure Cobra needs some air support now that Joe has those bbi fighters..... All in all, I'm really happy with it. Law |
