if you guys have doubts, you guys have every ability to go get yourselves to TRU and look around. do some leg work, people.
at least i looked around and asked people why some merchandise other than PTE was taken off the shelves. what stuff was taken off? some Imaginarium items (dino playsets, etc) some Totally Me items some Totally Me Pets items some You & Me dolls what else? oh nothing much, except that some TRU have 5 bays of recall that was assigned at the back of the warehouse. so you guys still think that whatever is going on isn't part of a recall? wow. i didn't know i was giving hisstank some misleading information from the very first day i started posting here. bummer. i'm still working on what useful information that i might gather and see why some PTE stuff was taken off the shelves. in the mean time, you guys sit tight. otherwise, just head off to your local TRU and do some leg work also. Here's my research: Find Recalled Products by Product Type Scroll down and look at these terms: "Toy Figures" "Toy Helicopters" "Toy Vehicles" "Toy Play Sets/Activity Sets" (This one has some Imaginarium stuff from April 2008 and the two Elite Operations recalls from 2007) Here's the most recent recalls: (The only recent recalled toys are some drums and jewelery) Recent Recalls And here's Toys R Us' recent recall list: Toysrus Inc. - Safety - List of Recalls I'm not seeing anything about PTE toys being recalled. The Chinook, Blackhawk and F-22 are still at my local TRU. I haven't seen the A-10 or F-18 for half a year or more. I think those sold off as they slowly trickled out of the store instead of being a case of a lot there one day and none the next. |

And the wait is killing me! I have so much use for all of these. I wonder how long it will take to get here, if at all.

Has anyone seen this set at Big Lots recently. I've have been looking for, but I haven't seen it.

The last couple of weeks the Big Lots near me haven't had the 3 packs or singles and just a few vehicles.

I finally went to my first Big Lots (Newburgh, NY) to see if I could track down some PTE stuff as the TRUs near me have very little and KB is gone. So I make the 50 mile trip (I was doing other errands so it wasn't a special trip) and finally find the place.
Well the toy section looked like a bomb hit it. Stuff was all over the floor. Toys were just thrown on the shelves. I've never seen a store like that. Oddly it was only the toy section, and the top shelves were pristine. They had one example of every hummer except the SWAT version. I picked up the open-top cargo, as it was the only one I didn't have yet and wanted. They also had the bridge set, watch towers, two M1s and at least 6 boats. No buggies, jets, animals, figs, or choppers. And their prices were right up there with TRUs. $24 for the Tank, $15 for the hummers, I thought they were supposed to be discounters. After that experience, its gonna stink if Big Lots is going to be the only place to get the new PTE stuff. On the one hand, I'm glad they actually had the older PTE stuff, but it just wasn't a pleasant shopping experience. |

Those are the regular prices for everywhere.
