The Target I go to restocked its FOV shelves recently, but forgot to re-mark the correct price on the larger items from the last clearance price. So far I have purchased two Tigers, a Patton, an AAVPA1, and an M270 MLRS, all at $6.24 apiece. They have re-filled the slot three times now, each time with 4 new vehicles, and they keep marking them at $6.24. The shelf even says $6.24. I hope this never ends......
That's like a recurring dream that keeps coming true! Very funny story.
Welcome aboard and thanks for sharing.

One of the two Targets in Columbia Maryland had a pretty good stock. A number of Tigers among the regular stock.

I saw some re-stocked German 716th infantry packs at one of our local Targets so there isn't a Target-wide ban on Germans. Whew!
Someone mentioned that TRU had instituted one and that's why we never see any opfor there?

That is why 21c more-or-less left their exclusive distribution deal with TRU. 21c wanted to produce German products and TRU wouldn't let them. It ultimately has been their loss since 21c took its business to various online retailers and then to nearly every Wal Mart in the country. Then again, those red nose ME-109s and the FW-190s would have just sat around at TRU like they do at Wal Mart and would have been an even greater sales loss to TRU and 21c.
