Sweet!

I see it is a TRU exclusive, but it also states it is new so hopefully it will show in stores by Christmas. Now for the Harrier!

Reports are coming in that its in stores now.

As to the topic at hand, at least they're giving it a try. Maybe sending a list of our top wanted items might help? Things like the sky crane copter and Harrier and Osprey. That way they don't get a cargo container full of crap we can get here already.

Yeah, that sounds like a plan, anybody up for being the spokesperson ?

I'd love to see these big playsets and the mid size ones...

Adventure Heroes
Vikings
Bad Guyz
Police Force
Big Builder-they have this forklift i've been wanting.

Thanks for the heads up on the rocket truck!

TRU.com also has the gunboat in stock:

I guess the hard part for anyone willing to carry the items is finding out what is going to be availabe in normal outlets. Prior to seeing the rocket truck at TRU's sight (thanks for that heads up) I would have paid $40-$50 at an oline retailer. Now, I'll wait for it at a brick and mortar TRU. They still carry the Chinook, so who knows when the Osprey may show up? Big Lots has reportedly carried the Harrier in the past, so they may again. I think ZG mentioned the risk of locking in a sizeable order. If you send a few grand to Chap Mei and while you are waiting for your cargo container all of these 'special' items start showing up at retailers who paid a lower bulk price, you are looking at a potential big loss.

Still, it would be great to have a steady and complete lineup available somewhere.

Well there is potential for these online, but you still have to deal with stuff not moving, also there is potential with opening those items and selling the accessories, becouse like me, i really like the figures and vehiceles, some of the accessories are to big, but others could use them.
