Oh, and because I was feeling cheeky, I decided to photograph my $5 patrol boat with a $30 Joe FSS figure (Night Force Lt. Falcon) piloting it. Note my cannon-toting Ravage chilling in the background.  |

That first one with Gills is available on Amazon, and caught my eye, but was priced higher than I wanted to pay ($25). Plus I already have 2 versions of Gills (although this one admittedly has a different paint job). That second one with Sparks looks rad. Judging from the package design, it's from just about the same era as my Cannon Ravage. Shame I'll probably never see it.
And yes, that red jet looks really sweet! I'm not heavily into the super-tiny jets, but I wouldn't pass that up if I found it for a good price.

Is that an actual Vulture figure in the jet in the "Counter Strike Incursion" set? Does that mean the Marauders are getting re-introduced?

It's more likely the cardboard cutout of him. New 3-pack packaging:  6-pack   |

Someone on Facebook posted these. Found at their local Ross store... I found both of these today at Ross too, and unfortunately, it is in fact a cardboard cutout of Vulture in the jet. What a cocktease. Also, "Operation Skyflall"? Between that and "Jet Figther" on the Sky Command set, someone at Lanard really needs to hire a copy editor. |

Eish! Those are pretty big typos for a big company like Lanard...

The one you received is the Total Soldier version of that pack. (we still have a few of these floating around our stores, in fact I picked it up a while ago for my sons birthday) The pictured version with Ravage is from the series before. I think we're getting an Elite version of this set that comes with Diesel. Here's a pic. Its still got the TS branding probably cos its an international release but has the Elite wave versions of Gills and Shadow/Plague  Just found this exact set at Ross too, but with the new branding. Same contents, different box. |

Same contents, different box. I saw one too. But the tower and the boat sections were reversed. Had it in hand to buy, but I put it back. I want that tower, and the giant gun is kinda neat, but I'm trying to save all my pennies for...something else, that is a little more time sensitive. We'll see. It's a cool set, but I have all the figures, so it's not really a must have for me. |

Awesome! Pic please? Aw, crap, I literally went to like 7 or 8 Ross stores, so I can't possibly remember which one it was that had it. Maybe Gigamach can snap a pic if he recollects the store and it's not too far out of his way. |

I know this isn't a store find, but figured it went in here. My wife shops at a large consignment sale and she puts me in charge of getting the kiddos' toys. These aren't all Corps figures, but I felt good about getting all of them (especially the MU figures) for just $8. I scored several older figures, but I got some throw aways or fodder figures too. I actually hadn't seen some of these figures before. Kinda kicked myself self for not getting the large True Heroes assault boat for $7 or the Schleich barn for $18.  ![[URL=https://imageshack.com/i/plPmhLFSj][IMG=http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/150x100q90/921/PmhLFS.jpg][/IMG][/URL]]() |
