I'm surprised Lanard hasn't used that body more often because it looks good. Those heads are scary but the paint apps are actually pretty nice. I'll let you know if I run across another one. |

Yeah, you made out like a bandit there! Any of the MU figures alone would have been worth the price of the lot (even with Cap and Thor missing their gear)--but beyond that, you got a lot of winners out of that! (Especially the 3 in the bottom left, nyuk, nyuk.  ) The African-American figure in the second row--is he a Chap Mei figure? I can't say too much for his body sculpt (I mean, it's not bad for a cheap figure), but from the pic, his headsculpt looks quite nice. That could make good material for a custom. |

Yes, I made out quite nicely. I paid $8 for all the figures, but they were in 4 individual bags. The Cap, Thor and Black Panther were priced for $2 in a bag. I about fell in the floor when I found it rummaging through a pile of toys. The African-American figure is from a run of figures that come in vehicles in military branch sets at Dollar General. He has a decent face sculpt and I even thought about using his torso (though I'd have to hacksaw his pelvis off. He is a good fodder piece. |

Yeah, sounds like a Chap Mei figure then. A cousin brand to the True Heroes stuff at TRU, and the Soldier Force stuff at Ross. And yeah, I'd say his torso is also viable fodder, too. |

Oh, and my patrol boat came in today!  I believe this is the same boat issued more recently in the Elite line with a Gills figure, but I already own the Elite version of Gills, and I preferred this camo pattern over the gray on the newer version (although this version doesn't include a figure). Interestingly, it has a "Marauders" decal on the "spoiler" (which is obscured by the packaging), so this deco design presumably predates the Total Soldier branding. Either way, it's versatile enough that it's almost team-agnostic; I could have any figure of any affiliation pilot it. It's actually larger than I expected, too, for a one-person vehicle. And it comes with a Bio-Tag. All in all, this only cost me $4.95 shipping (the $5 price tag was covered by my gift card)--definitely worth the price, though I have to clear some shelf space for it. EDIT: Oh, and the darn thing floats, too! That wasn't advertised at all, but it was a pleasant surprise to find out. Bio Tag and picture of Shadow, but no figure... Bummer  |

I dont remember the name of the figure but that line of toys is often at my local fallas. Like ross its a store that sells some toys in adition to its main focus |

I happened to be in Arizona the last couple days, and one of the Walmarts there actually had the Titan Tank and Curse Flying Fortress on shelves! $29.99 each. I didn't pick them up, as I don't really have the space for them, and wasn't so desperate to have them to pick them up anyways (though in hindsight I kind of wish I did).

My Wal-Mart in San Diego has had the helo and tank for about a month, untouched. Same price. I already have both. They are very cool, I have to say! I wish the Tank had a better turret, but the light-and-sound effects are fun, and the helo has great, wide blades. |

The Wal*Mart around here had the Exo Battlesuits, but ran out before I started collecting (got 'em off eBay though). The only things I've gotten there lately are the 4 Rapid Response vehicles, the 4 Triple Threat figure packs and there are some Faction Face Off two figure packs. Oh, and the Army Playset bucket and 6 Super Soldiers. I managed to grab the last Titan Tank and Flying Fortress, but they seemed to have restocked. Recently, I also found a nearly hidden pair of Lightning Strike vehicles (the fighter jet and the helicopter). I keep checking for other products, but it doesn't appear they carry anything else I did get the Battle Cruiser from Amazon and I'm hoping to snag their Beast Bomber this paycheck. The local Reny's (a Maine department store) had some Total Soldier stuff and I grabbed the Offensive Drone Strike set (with Diesel figure in Elite colors). Barely missed out on some 3 packs though. Only other set there is one with Rucker (again, in Elite colors) with a tan guard tower and small jeep/buggy. I now have enough Plagues and Bolders to make a clone battle of the two  |
