They do have the same ones from 4 years ago, because I've been staring at them for 4 years. Who do you think bought the 1 case of Retaliation figures they did get in. And don't get me started on the Wal Mart.

I've sporadically checked the two DG's between Greensboro and Burlington on 70. Haven't found anything yet.

I found a set at the DG on Groometown Road back when they were first being reported, and I've found nothing since.

I bought 1 of 2 Tread Rippers today @ the Lynn Rd Target. $14.99.I was there around 2pm. I actually looked over it then noticed the pic of the treads. Only joe item on clearance is the Battle Kata gun.

Of course you notice the treads 1st due to the treads being larger than the vehicle body. Only issue i have is a lack of protection for the driver. 1 shot would take him out quick.Regardless, It's a cool lil vehicle.

Clutch looks cool but we know his issues.. Hopefully I can get a pic up later..

UPDATED INFO
Clutch's vest can be removed but it looks like it'll leave a hole in his chest cavity. I'm sure it can be customized. I added a canopy to my Tread Ripper. Will take pics tomorrow.

Also I bought the 2nd Tread Ripper from Lynn Rd Target this morning but I had a change in heart and returned it to the Crossroads Target this afternoon. I didn't need 2.

Is Clutch's vest removable?

I say yes but it will leave a hole in his chest and probably will need a little work. I may put him under the knife this weekend.

D'oh! I'd have bought it from you before you returned it. Oh well.

Was anyone here lucky enough to get the Hiss or Jinx figures off Hasbro Toy Shop this year? I got both versions of Jinx, but was really aiming for the Hiss.
