Best place is China Square Central in Chinatown as that's where most of the toy shops are, Sunday is best as they have a flea market there so you might find people selling joes. Otherwise Simply Toys.

Momo, tank is Patriot Grizzly from spytroops wave, I have the night force version which is green/black camo, better looking IMO

Afraid not on the Patriot Grizzly, the Night Force version was sold in Malaysia which was how I got mine so you might get lucky and see it turn up somewhere here otherwise thing there was one being sold at one of the shops at CSC in Singapore

Rescue mission sets are being cleared cheaply at specialty stores here, think the shop in Amcorp which specializes in Transformers have them.

by the way, where can I get some nice ready made diorama building in 1/18th scale? I know 21st century toys produced some destroyed buildings for WW2 diorama, but discontinued long time ago and impossible to find. Power Team Elite also got a huge one but not available in our local toy shops.  doh.gif

planing to do an urban battle scene but not enough skills to make one from scratch.

Only buildings here that might work would be possibly Playmobile (lot of customizing required), maybe sylvanian families (Pricy and doors likely underscale) or the Chap Mei Police Station. Think you're largely out of luck on that one for ready made stuff.

The only thing I can suggest is to check around souvenir stores for possible buildings that might work and hardware stores for shelves, containers, boxes that could easily be transformed into buildings.

Don't be too discouraged from building your own stuff, plenty of tips from guys here on how tos

TRU only has Spirit and Quick Kick as they are TRU exclusives and they chose not to take anything else. Isetan is only dept store with selection of POC figures though troopbuilders and certain figures are all gone. Same with specialty shops though some might still have a full case available for sale/

That was on Feb 12. As of Feb 13, the price for it went to RM 99.
Next day it might be RM 150. Who knows?

Might be a lesson here not to mention how much cheaper it is than normal retail, stores may not know that they are selling very low, then find out from here and adjust accordingly

Pricy, also scale is 1/24 so if you want to use with joes, may be a bit small

Hate to disappoint you all but those Cobra mobile bases will not be made, the pictures are mostly concepts and mock-up of stuff that were proposed and not made/canceled. They were just shown at the convention for the interest of the fans as background material to the toyline development
