2012 Movie Heroes Class II Vehicles
Scockery:
5 Below seems mostly useless for anything besides cheap action figures, but that's because I'm not their target audience.
I remember when Big Lots had worthwhile stuff, besides the yearly Power Team Elite army toys that increase in price every year.
There's an Ollies an hour's drive away, but I've never gone to it. Haven't heard of them having anything special recently.
Jesse James:
Not fair to PTE, they actually only had one price increase... my bigger gripe with them is a lack of presence this past year, and limited new stuff... They've not been on a tear of their usual new waves of stuff in a couple years. The last new things were only a couple playset items ultimately.
They've been years since they put out some sets too like the bridge, bunks, full tent, etc.
PTE has way more potential for goodness.
5 Below has a lot of other cool stuff... card games, goofy car stickets and tin signs, candy out the ying yang, lego minis... It's a store I could probably go in every day and come out with something... But yeah definitely a tad girly in there.
Scockery:
No, I have a figure and camel set box that was $3, those small sets have steadily gone up to $5 over the past few years. At one point the Hummers were well under $20, too.
Funny, I mention Big Lots and there's now reports of Class 1 2013 items appearing there for $18.
McMetal:
I strapped on my flak jacket and stopped by a Big Lots yesterday on the way home from work, just out of curiosity. They had absolutely nothing SW related in the whole miserable store. Remind me to get a vaccination before I step foot in one of those places again...eesh.
$18 isn't really a bargain price anyway. I'd prefer to wait it out and pick some more of these up at Ross/TJ Maxx/Marshall's when they'll be at a more appealing $7.99-9.99 range.
Jesse James:
Yeah I found the $18 price sorta meh. I'd rather buy them at K-mart and get the reward points. I've got almost $40 stashed on my Rewards card I plan on using when new stuff winds up hitting, or on the exclusives when they arrive.
Those sets haven't been hard to find either... TRU, Target (lots there now), K-Mart all have had them in abundance. I'd like a 2nd Yoda fighter but only a cheap one, nothing full price... really just for the droid dome.
