Does anyone know whatever happened to this toy line? I used to see their stuff everywhere and now I can't find it.

Comes and goes. You can typically find it at Big Lots.

That's what I thought as well but I was in a Big Lots yesterday and I couldn't find any evidence they'd ever sold the stuff.

Everything at Big Lots comes and goes. Its a close out store, so there is nothing that is ever stocked on a regular basis. Keep an eye out or check with management.

I have some items on my site, http://www.joearmory.com/powerteamelite.aspx

Wonder if we'll see new sets sometime this year? Next year? Ever?

I don't know about anyone else, but both of the TRU's I check regularly have PILES of pte stuff. They bulked up before Xmas, and most of it is still there.

You can find some PTE stuff folded into TRU's line of military themed toys. I've seen the dune buggy, Little Bird, F-18s, A-10s, and kayaks.
No hummers, tanks, etc. though.

MJ has some of the smaller accessories, and we've been lobbying him for the bigger vehicles, so maybe he can pull it off.

TRU must have cut a deal with PTE and Chap Mei, as both manfuacturers toys are available under the same label. The other place I used to see a lot of PTE was KB stores and outlets, but it is hard to find a KB anywhere anymore.

Actually I read on another board (forget which one) that due to the shipping costs etc Marauder wouldn't be able to get the bigger vehicles.

Mostly the only time Big Lots has PTE stuff in stock is during the Christmas season only. Sometimes at the first of the yr but thats only left overs they had from Christmas time.

Yep Big Lots has them at Christmas time or whenever they stock items for Xmas. They seem to do well with them. I'm betting they will be back this year again.
Toys R Us has them as Elite Operations. Look for the green boxes like this...

I think my Big Lots still has an A-10 left over. TRU has those too.
Dollar General used to have some stuff too. I haven't been in one in a while so I don't know if they still have any. You could also try Family Dollar.

august/sept is when big lots got pte the last to years so that probliy the best tim to check
