I think giving it three days before abandoning the merchandise is a bit unlikely.

I saw that too, picked up a Rockslide and an Armoured Panther.
They need to get w2 in while the offer's still on.

Apparantly Tesco have 30% off of Joes too, none in the Ox Rd Tesco in Reading though so can't confirm it.
Rob, anything in 'big' Tesco?

Cheers,
Doug

Big Tescos? Kings Meadow? Not a clue, don't go there. g/f hates it. Haven't checked Oxford Road yet either

Saw some in Calcot Sainsburys the other week, no sale at that point though.

W2 would be great... I just hope it's still on when payday rolls around

That's the one. What's wrong with it? :)

Saw them in Savacentre, only discount was on the bags and stationary.

Shopping tonight so Ox Rd Tesco will get scouted again...
:lol:

No clue. Shop's a shop in my opinion.

When confronted by a difficult problem you can solve it more easily by reducing it to the question. How would the Lone Ranger handle this?

I suppose, if you open them, the large gun doesn't really matter. Dump it in a box!

Doubt there's much point keeping new figures MOC personally

Got them pinned on the wall at the moment, they look good like that. It's my age old problem of not having enough room for display cabinets. When I get my bigger house that won't be a problem though! :-)

Bust them open & play with 'em!!
Toys are ment to be played with...just check that you haven't got a rare variant package or anything before you do.

Have any of the new movie figures been short packed?

I don't know about the original :snakeeyes: & :storm: , but I can remember searching really hard before finding them in any local toy shops @ the time..& I could just see Hasbro pulling a stunt, like short packing that duo, to up the sales.
More news, as its made, from new Action Force!
