I'm stocking up for the Christmas rush, Simon. If I had the room to display two or more especially climbing up a rocky wall or something, I would.

Don't know if this was mentioned earlier but TRU has their big toy book ad out for black friday.. They are going to be selling the new Gunship for 49.99 and the Turbo tank for 79.99

They also have a $10 off $100 purchase from 11/30 to 12/24
 
Here is the link:

Do what I do on black fridays if I dare to venture out,  Find the biggest, meanest looking woman and make like a Nascar driver and draft her around the store, they will clear the way for you ;)

 I hear yha, though I have learned, that many deals are just not worth the agrivation of the crowds and rude people.

As for that TRU Ad, I DO believe it's not a black friday ad, but rather their new prices. I was at TRU the other day and the CTT was already $79.99, but no Crumb Bombers in sight.

As for Black Friday, MANY of the retailers offer those same prices online, so that's one way to go.  My wife and her mother go out every year at like 3am to get in line and stuff.  They can have it!

the at te is a great deal, but how many do you really need?

The proper answer?  "More."
;D

if you say so.. .but to me, if I can't see my toys, I'm not interested, I went through a phase where I had 30-40 tubs of toys in storage..then I realized I had a problem, 11 months on EBay later, I feel much more like a collector/enthusiast, much less like a horder.

I am going through that same process right now. Whats the use to have em if they sit in rubbermaid. Too daggone expensive to do that. I am just starting my ebay foray.

Be careful about overseas shipping.

I have shipped to a few countries so far and I always use the USPS site and my postal scale and ofcourse don't ship until paypaled. I hate the stinking custom forms, but they can be done online too.

Ugh, TRU is pissing me off right now. Not only is the place a frigging zoo whenever I walk in now, you can't even get anyone to help you over the phone. To make matters worse, I just realized they assigned the same Item # to every single one of their SW BattlePacks, so good luck finding out if they got the Rishi Moon Outpost Attack BP or not.  >:(

And to top it off, I just found out their truck schedule is changing every week now, so new stuff could be arriving at any time. DAMMIT!

I really need that BP so I can stop my hunting...this is the worst time of year to be out there thrashing around with the holiday shoppers.
