BBTs has PTE Sets

OreoBuilder · **Posted:** Fri Nov 18, 2011 11:21 am

Forgive me if this is old news, but I just noticed that BBTS has Power Team Elite sets for pre-order.

Prices aren't great, but some of this stuff is not available in my area. I might bite on the boats.

Its news to me. The prices are horrible compared to Big Lots but considering Big Lots didn't even carry some of that newer stuff last year it might be the only remaining option. Thanks for posting about it.

That's WAAAAY overpriced. Shame too because those sets rock.

Guys,

I have a couple of Big Lots by me and I know they have the ARH, IFV and other helos. If anyone needs, I can pick them up for them. Will just charge actual cost and shipping (nothing in it for me). Just send a PM and let me know what to keep an eye out for.

If they had the MIG or one of the other jets that is hard to find, I'd pay their price.

I like that rocket helo, but for that price I can easily live without it.

I'd like the helo too, and it looks like they have the armed version, but that price is too steep.
These are the sets I wish JC Penny had, and then put on sale like last year.
And why doesn't anyone carry the jets?

It is odd that they may have the armed helo. I've only seen the unarmed ones at Big Lots this year too.
I heard someone did see the F-18 but none of the others.

My Big Lots did carry the new stuff. They also have them this year. That is BL main fault. Not all of their stores seem to have the same stock.

I found out about a new toy chain today called Toyzam

http://www.toyzam.com/storeLoctions.html

It looks like there are a ton of them around. I went to one by me and they had the PTE copter with the rockets for $30. I didn't pick it up because I bought a bunch of Sesame Street stuff for my daughter for Christmas this week, but I will go back for it. The version with the rockets is in a much larger box, and the wings the rockets attach to are more substantial than the pics we've seen in the past make it look. It is definitely a big difference from the ones we see at Big Lots.

I actually went into one of those yesterday, and yeah, they had a lot of decently-priced PTE stuff. I found out that it's actually owned by Spencer Gifts, and it's basically the same schtick as Toys R Us Express, just using the space the Spirit Halloween stores usually occupy.

I'd be all over this if they started getting the PTE figures with the Chinese head sculpts. I can see why Big Lots wouldn't carry them, but would hope BBTS would be willing to have them. Not to mention, it would also be nice if they got the J10 and Russian jet.

Yeah the SU-27 & J-10 are in the U.K.
The SU-27 & Z-9 with rockets are in Canada. So those would be in English packaging.
The other Chinese stuff is only available in China.

Sweet! South Hills Village Mall! I finally have a reason to go back there.

SU-27 up for pre-order

http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/prod ... ode=retail

Yeah, I want that, but $50? Yikes. Think my BBI F16 was only $60 incl. shipping. Think I might have to wait until that goes on sale. Also see they are offering the A-10.

See the preorder note in the description? Methinks the chances of these going on sale over there are slim.
