$5.00 Avatar toys at Family Dollar!
 

Family Dollar has a load of Avatar stuff for $5.00.

Some Navi figures for $5.00 - never really looked too closely at them when first at retail, maybe unreleased?

Some of the creatures are also available for $5.00 - banshee, thanator, direhorse, etc.

Now the really cool news! AMP suits - $5.00 each! Plus a few of the Grinder wheeled vehicles.

$5.00 AMP suits - Load up, all you mech maniacs!

:D

Man, you guys stateside are so lucky. AMP suits for $5? They're not available over in UK anymore.

yup all we got here are the basic figures for €3.99 and i still dun think they're worth it. lol

Be nice if the family dallor up the road from me would be some in :(

No vehicles here yet, but they sent the stores close to me both human and navi figures, now if only they'd restock the joes!

I hit a couple stores in southeastern Denver, and they had figures and some animals (Banshee and Dire Wolf or whatever). All $5 each. Didn't run into any AMP suits or Scorpions.

Plus, saw some Joes at one store: Snow Serpents, regular Wraith and Battle Armor Cobra Commander.

Scorpion is the chopper right? Didn't see that just the amp suits and the 4 wheeler at one I was at.

One store near me has zilch, the other had the humans, the na'vi, the deluxe boxed creatures (second wave, I think) and the AMP Mechs.

anyone have pics of a joe in the avatar chopper thing?

Its REALLY cramped. I put a new sculpt figure in and he has to sit with his legs up to his chest to fit properly. Regular rah would probably depend on figure and no chance for a 25th to fit well. :( But still a sweet chopper.

Got one!
 

Seems it took stores a couple of days to get stock out on the floor. Note to all Mech (AMP) enthusiasts: only the #11 (Quaritch's) one comes with a gun! The box has a painting on the front and the side shows a "missile launcher". The #26 blue & yellow seems much more available and only comes with a knife. Also, the box for #11 is labelled "AMP SUIT Collectible Vehicle" while the #26 is just "AMP SUIT vehicle". They fit ARAH figures, but barely. At $5, these are a steal. $5 for the figures still seems high. And I didn't run into any Scorpion helicopters.

Now that's out of the way, anyone wanna throw an extra AMP gun and ammo strip my way? :D

if i find them down my way i send you the AMP gun and ammo strip

try http://www.joecustoms.com/forums/vi...corpion#p223311 for pics. That's a BBI pilot in there which is pretty close to ARAH sized.

cool

Now if only my fd would get those and the amp suits!

I was wondering that about the gun. Kinda lame they took out the gun and added nothing in its place.

Bought some Avatar blues today. They seem to have others that I have not seen before at either Target, TRU, or Walmart.

hard to find clearance
 

i stocked up while i could afford it. Targets from Surprise to Phoenix are picked clean with the Joe figures and the vehicles should come down more in price then just 5 dollars. Family dollars only seems to have 1 or 2 stragglers if that (mostly Bazooka). They havent gotten any new ones for about 2 weeks. i am only just starting to see the Avatars show up but none of the mech type stuff. i dont think the Avatars look very compatable themselves but maybe the mech stuff will.

If anyone finds the 2 Female avatar figures hook me up as I need the for a dio project I'm working on (I need them and a scorpion chopper).



Update: 07/12/10

Went to pick up my Sons from my mom's today and stopped over at the D'Iberville FD and found both the Amp Suit and the RDA grinder vehicle. (My mom picked up both for my son's). So thery have at last hit down here!
