There is a camel version of that set too (instead of the horse)

Saw some of this in my area as well, the figure packs, the chopper, the figure with wall etc.

is another place that carries them.
Hmmm their store locator doesn't seem to work for me.
Anyway they open up around Xmas time in some malls.
I guess the one closest to me closed. None in Illinois anymore. :(
Hopefully they will open up again closer to Xmas.

i heard about these Tuesday but my big lots is always slow. They havent stocked theirs yet. They look cool though.

Lava Boss 09-20-2012 06:39 PM

None here yet, but they had two Chap Mei soldier force vehicles, a dune buggy and the recent jeep with roll cage, each with two figures. The buggy isn't their original AWE Striker knock-off, but a more hollow looking newer mold. Neither seemed worth $10 each.

My wife picked these up for me yesterday while i was at work. Lol. The body on the snowmobile is neat but it has back wheels instead of treads and the skids on front are stationary. They have three new head sculpts all blonde haired and blue eyed. One looks alot like duke. The helmet and hat that come with the three pack are soft like their vests and belts. Love the hat btw.

I had a chance to stop by a big lots today, and they did have the snowmobile set. I didn't buy it though, because to be honest it looked really "cheap". The wheels instead of treads look bad, and the body didn't seem to have much to it.

Lava Boss 09-30-2012 02:59 PM

Yeah, it looks bad. From what I could tell it replaced the camel set in this years small assortment , I remember when those small packs were like $3.50. $5 for the parachute guy seems way too much.

*Others are kayak, horse, motorcycle, lean-to camp, paratrooper with working chute.

Update:
Defense sets with barricades & 3 troopers for $13.
Little Bird (armed version), Jeep with trailer sets $17
Dune Buggy (sand rail)/ Chinese utility vehicles for $10

That's it. Nothing new. Didn't make it over to the newer bigger Big Lots.

I haven't taken a close look at the snowmobile but it has a vintagey look that might work with Z and Action Force figures.

Lava Boss 10-20-2012 08:20 PM

Went to the other Big Lots nearby. They had the same old Humvees ($20), though no covered cargo ones...maybe they sold them already, and the 3 pack carded figures. There's a new arctic forces 3 packs which includes the snow mobile figure and two guys with new heads, one with a removable cap, the other with a removable helmet. Why the one guy remains hatless, I don't know. Also, they are all blonds! Unlike the older teams, there's only the 3 heads, not 6 different ones. Their other gear looks to be the same as Desert Marines, which they replace in case assortments from what I could tell. So you have 3 arctic camo guys with a sandbag emplacement.

$7 a set. I recall when they were $5. :(
