PTE and knock-off Chap-Mei and CORPS at Albertsons Grocery

MJTanner · **Posted:** Wed Dec 03, 2014 2:04 am

I just found some PTE and knock off Chap-Mei animal sets and Corps sets at my local Albertsons.

The PTE stuff is the same as what is at Big Lots now--- none of the big sets but the buggy, watch tower and little bird copter- The copter I think was going for 15. The tower and buggy were 10 but were on sale right now for 7.50. I had been wanting to get the watch tower for a bit so I was happy to find it for such a cheap price.

There were two Corps sets--the multipack that has I think 6 of the newer figs and a set with two figs, a jeep and multi-rocket launcher. They are the regular figs but with very little paint. Like maybe one or two overlays at the most. Those were also on sale for 7.50

The chap-mei knocks offs were terrible looking in terms of the figures but the vehicles (one set had the jeep and the other had a helicopter) weren't bad looking, just clearly cheaper plastic. They were 15 (if they had been on sale for any cheaper I would have gotten them.)

Any pics of the multi-rocket launcher?

Not sure if I've seen it online before.

I am striking out on finding pics online, but I swear it was in at least one other set the last few years.

I scored a couple of Hummers at Albertsons a couple of years ago AFTER Christmas and bought 3 for the price of 1 basically....

Cyko said that the Albertson's store near him has started 50% off on toys so if you have one you might want to check the prices soon...

Is it this one?

I remember one quad-launcher with removable rockets but I can't remember if that one was stationary or towed.

Wow! Wish we had Albertsons here. :-(

I could so use a little bird and the rocket launcher sets. If anyone comes across them at this price, I would gladly pay for them and shipping, even opened and re-packed together in a different box!
