Thanks. I didnt know that. Tempting..torned between "not wasting money" and getting that duke.

What else is on sale in TRU? How about the mobile pit? hmm.gif
*
PIT is selling for RM125.It's a good steal (playset plus one figure included) regardless if you're a Joe or non-Joe collector.bewarned though that the toy itself is huge.

as for Duke ,the 15" figure include some lights and sound bytes plus phrases and the fact that Duke's mouth moves when he utters the phrases. and you get the crazylegs running action.so its also worth buying.

heck, buy both if you have the moolah to spend. you won't go wrong with buying either one. biggrin.gif

well, you may be right. these two items had been sapu-ed in the first to second week of TRU's promotion.

perhaps other Joe collectors on this thread can be of further help to you on availability. guys,help this chap here.

Hauls for this week.
Both SE and SS will be joining my customs bin as I only wanted the base.Am disappointed that the pillars are extremely loose (to enable the collapsing effect) so I'll probably glued it .The base is rather nice with molded on shurikens ,nunchuks and sais.There's some pegs to hold ROC figs.

On a side note, both items bear the Hasbro Malaysia sticker on the back of their respective boxes.However, I have never seen them on TRU.Possibly they made it to Parkson or other outlets.

It's nice that both left and right sides of the box have cutouts with some of the weapons on display.

After doing a bunch of Joe based customs for the last two months,I decided on customizing a female Predator .Blame it on the Predators trailer. tongue.gif

Anyway,I had inspiration of customizing her while lazing away one weekend late last month and my HT 1/6 She Predator Machiko that I displayed on my shelf caught my eye.So time for a female Predator custom. (I did a Predator custom last year)

thanks.. i hesitated to buy at first becoz he seemed very similar to the SE in the Joe 5 pack, but turns out this one is a way superior mold! Actually, if they re-released the SE w timber from 25th anni, it would also be wicked!
*
You can find wave 1 25th anni SE with Timber selling at a reasonable price on ebay.
else,if you own wave 5 25th anni Commando SE,then just swap your HOH SE's head and bandolier onto Commando SE and the result is wave 1 25th SE.

Where'd you see this in SG? Seeing the HISS tank being released stateside so early really tempts me  icon_question.gif

Side note, I found a place that sells the Sting Raider and the Walmart 2 packs at decent prices. Got one Sting Raider for RM40 and the 1 2 pack (Gung-Ho and Copperhead) for RM25. Waiting for the guy to restock to get some Night Creepers.

same guy i had reserved for me all the Night Creepers he can find.. wink.gif

Here's 3 of my latest customs .

Instead of focusing on SS's weapons like i did the first time around, this time it's more on his overall looks.

not sure which position i should go for his sheathes.what do you think?
vertical or horizontal or just give him a standard pair?

Arrghhh better not be all of them damn youz!  vmad.gif  laugh.gif  laugh.gif

Good score man. I've been rethinking about getting those and the Walmart SE vs SS set since POC is releasing in US..should be seeing POC here soon (hopefully sooner than later)  sad.gif
*
Unfortunately ,that's all there is .Word is there's no restock of Night Creeper. sad.gif
Night Creeper cost RM5 extra but its worth getting since retail cost RM64.90.

i guess your POC Hisstanks should be arriving in the next 3-4 weeks eh?

I'll grab a pair when TRU clearances them tongue.gif

hmm,i'll try that but it still looks bulky.will use REsolute 7 pack or POC Wave 1 SS's backpack instead.

Doc's stretcher even comes with a blanket, a fact i had overlooked as from the day both arrived at TRU till the day i received them, i never bothered to look closely at both figures and their accesories as they aren't exactly awesome. the hefty price tag further gave me just cause to avoid these two.
