I went the other day and all they had was a endcap. Maybe they had not put it out yet cause of the sell on Thursday but kind of sucked. Was looking for another Blackhawk. Maybe they are going to do away with pte.

3 Day Sale at Big Lots, 40% OFF PTE. I picked up Bombed Out Building $24, Black Hawk $18, Tank $18, Navy Seal Boat $12, Camp Site $6... That had a pretty decent selection at the 2 stores I went to.

My most local one didn't have a great selection, but it did at least have the gray Battlefield and the ARHs, along with some other nice smaller sets like the Campsite, and many of the $20-tier vehicles. I'm probably going to go back and get a Battlefield and Campsite tomorrow, though goodness knows the Battlefield is probably going into my closet what with the limited space I have. I haven't been able to find any of the jets locally, though.
Oh, and did they reduce the number of figures that came with the Battlefield? I thought it used to be 6, but the ones I'm seeing now only have 3. They still come with a lot of swag, though.

I would like to find the military base playset.

Me too. Luckily, being in the Navy has its perks. My friends are going direct to the source in HK while they are there to get these for me. They are also cheaper there than online...about half the cost once the currency conversion is done.

I just walked into Big Lots on the biggest shopping day of the year, itching to buy some PTE stuff.
I was thinking of casting a fairly wide net--I might even have purchased some camels. So, wow, there's hardly anything there. I would have happily grabbed some Little Birds. I'd been hoping they might even have the armed Little Bird. I walked out without buying anything. Quote:

Rollin' Deep. Note that 5 of the 6 figures in the bed were furnished by Zap (thanks again), and Spirit was provided by yet another 'Tanker.
Also, I picked up that Battlefield and a Campsite set for a combined total of $30! Can't beat that, even though I wound up with one of the 3-figure Battlefields and not one of the 6-figure ones (I did see one of the 6-figure ones at another location, but passed on it). Not that I really need 6 of these particular figures, but I do like the mustachioed gentleman included in the 6-figure version. Plus, although I didn't buy any or think to take pictures, one of my Big Lots locations had 5-packs of figures, with gear, marked for $10 each (so $6 for Black Friday). They're sold in thin, almost card-like boxes with rifles for each figure and lots of extra swag. There's 5 different style packs per case. I almost bought the diver pack, since it has slightly nicer figures than usual (asymmetrical limbs!) and some neat kit, including a navigation board with see-through lens, a lantern, an underwater camera, and even a friggin' coffee mug. But, I wound up passing on it. Maybe I'll go back for one this evening. Also, I realize this is dirty pool, but check out some of these super-budget $5 figure sets Big Lots sometimes carries: At least the dino-themed pack has a fossil you can assemble. I have no idea how good it looks when assembled (probably not very), but I like the idea.

I haven't seen the grey Battlefield set at the store, yet only the tan one. I like it better because it looks more urban to me.

Yeah, I like the gray version better for that reason. Both include equal amounts of gear and figures (only 3 figures nowadays), but the camo patterns of the figures vary between set colors. Also, I was about to complain that my Campsite set didn't include a rifle for the 3rd figure; but, after looking at M&C's website (and the other Military Life barracks set), I think they actually reduced the number of figures recently from 3 to 2--so, I think I got lucky there by getting 3 figures.

Oh, and I was meaning to ask: How is the World Peacekeepers/PTE Tank? I've never seen it in person before, and although Elite Force has me covered for a tank right now, I'm wondering if it's something I should aspire to get once I have the space for it.
