Yeah no thanks. If you want to post a review on your site I have no problem clicking over and checking it out. Heck, if it's a good site I'll bookmark it and check back for updates. But I'm not going to join another message board just to read a review. Sorry.

if it's really available at TRU, there will be reviews popping up here from people willing to share, soon enough.

So...similar to how we deal with certain other sites that want us to create accounts just to view content, how about some image mirroring? I really just want to see how Joes look in this thing.

Hopefully. But does TRU Express have the same stock at every location? Because I'm pretty positive that this thing isn't in standard TRUs.

Yeah, I was at our TRU express yesterday and they didn't have this. Haven't checkd TRU proper, though.

Checked a TRU proper, no dice. Going to brave a different mall this week.

Could be that it was bought at a TRU NOT in the US?

I'm pretty sure it was bought in the States as Battle Wagon is local to my area, he's in Brooklyn or Manhattan I believe.

Maybe it's from one of those Army stores.

Nope, this is available in TRU Express stores here, as I picked up a couple today at my local one.

PICS!

Thanks to Battlewagon for the initial post and the awesome review on his site. He took a lot of pictures and they were well worth checking out.

I found this at the Toys R Us Express in the Butler Mall in Butler PA today. They had a ton of them in the back near the RC, constuction, and other play vehicles. It was nowhere near the action figures. The best part...

They were on sale for $19.98. The staff (and I use that term loosely) didn't know if that was a permanent drop or just a sale price (or if a sale,, if it was just starting or ending) but it is definitely worth $20.

The store also had a Dickie luxury boat that was very similar in scale but not marked as 1:18. It was close in size overall, and had the same kind of removeable roofs and hatches and such, but a lot of the interior details were truncated to fit the smaller size. It was made to look roughly 1:18, but not actually fit figures in all the areas. In the same way most 1:18 cars don't actually have leg room for figures.

I don't have a camera phone, so I couldn't get any pics, but at this store, it was stacked in one of the central area piles, not with the other vehicles. Pricing was the same. I passed on the boat, as so much of it wasn't to scale, but if it were closer to $10 I'd have picked it up.

Balls. Now I have to make a trip to the only TRU express in the state and hope they have one. Anyone feel like hooking me up if I can't get one locally?

I got the boat as well. I haven't had a chance yet to try it out with Joe figures, but it almost definitely requires the various floors to be removed to put figures in place.

I'd help, but I bought the only ones in stock, one for me and one for Zombieguide.

Well, as long as it's going to zombieguide, I guess I can let it slide. If I'm completely honest with myself it really doesn't make sense to get one, far too likely to end up in a box that I'll forget about, but it just looks too badass. Does it work well with Joes?
