WOW! And for a buck each?! Yeah, I think I'd be having to do a reality check myself. Congratulations!

Congratulations, you son-of-a-gun!!
As others have said, finding old product in a store today is dream material....and you did it! And at $1 EACH?! Doesn't matter what they had, that is outstanding. You must have floated all the way home.

Almost makes you wonder what they had before you got there. Is it the kind of store where you could ask if they had more in the back?

If anyone's Joe-haul dream deserved to come true, it's yours. I'm loving the new group project and the card-art that you've just added makes it something truly special.

Did you find them right here? :-D

If you look at the middle right side, I think you can actually see them on the shelf.

Yup, that looks familiar. That is an older photo, probably 3-4 years old? The action figures are in another aisle now.

I am curious what other forgotten gems they might have.

I'm surprised by the Cobra battle gear, but not so much the vehicle accessory packs. Those vehicle accessories must've been one the worst selling vintage ARAH products ever or greatly over produced or both. IIRC, I remember seeing them in 1993 at an odd jewelry/department store, which also still had the first series action packs (another unpopular ARAH item), Air Raiders, Visionairies and Coleco's Rambo figures.

I also remember in the mid-90's, a garage sale that had dozens of them. Didn't ask why.

Sweet deal. I would've bought all the battle gear packs, but left the Vehicle ones. I Bought 3 or 4 around '94 for a buck each. I've still got one unopened.
