i'm in the same boat. no room but i simply could not pass it up at the clearance price. the more i see of the blackhawk, the more i want to get that one as well... i'd have hell to pay when i got home though as the apache takes up half my work surface/table already.
thanks for posting the pictures |

Here's another pic to show the size of the Apache. The span of the blades is about (If not slightly more) than the width of the Terrordrome

That is beyond awesome. You found that beauty for $20 and change? What a bargain. Almost makes me want to skip the Joe vehicles altogether and get some of these. The poor Skyhawk looks like a joke compared this thing, and I love the Skyhawk!

Not to worry folks, its rumored that FOV will be releasing 1/18 Apaches and Blackhawks of their own at target, most likely for the $29.99 that the BBI versions were. BBI was only at target to tide over until FOV came into play with their 1/18 line. Thats why most of the molds used in the BBI line were in fact old, and the only new stuff were repaints(like the sharkmouth apache, but that was the harder one to find as it came out right before clearance).

They're still out there. I almost picked up another Bradley yesterday but resisted. The helicopters might be long gone. I haven't seen another blackhawk or Apache since the day they went on clearance. I can confirm that the Abrams Tank looks awesome next to the Joes. I just wish I could do more than put two figures in it. I will be picking up my MOBAT decals today. I don't plan to paint over the camo job, but I wouldn't mind any suggestions on what else I should do to improve the tank.

Same here. it's all gone. I managed to get my Abrams and LAV, but that's it. no copters. I wish I had picked them up at full retail as now I can't find them anywhere except online and the shipping makes them closer to $80.
NOT worth that much. |
