Noticed some Power Team Elite 3 3/4" sets in the new JC PENNY christmas gift guide I got in the mail. I looked at one closer and it includes a new vehicle. (no, it's not the sky crane transport copter that was once rumored.)

sure enough, it's online! I sure haven't heard about it.

JC Penny Power Team Elite sets

It's the set with the tower... 124 Piece Military Playset You can zoom in real close, too.

Downside, it part of a set. Upside, the sets are good deals. (There's shipping costs, too.) They got the Command Post and the SEAL boat, too.

These are online/catalog only, so don't rush out to JC Penny.

Thanks for the heads up. Every year about this time, I go hit BigLots to see what new PTE stuff they come out with. I was afraid this year I'd miss any new gear they made cause I'm in Iraq! Now I can't WAIT to get some of this stuff! I Love PTE gear because you can use the soldiers as anything! (ie; Delta Force, foreign soldiers or even greenshirts) It's cool that they are so generic!


I think Luis was looking for that PBR boat they have in the SEAL set. I might get one of each set just to bolster my Armies!

I couldn't agree more about everything you said man. But there are a INCORRET information. I'm not looking for the PBR Boat. Do you know why? A friend hooked me up with one. He used to live in USA, right now he is on assigment on Iraq with the U.S. Marines.

However I can't say that this buggy down here doesn't call my attention .


If one can find him w/o the set drop me a line with prices so maybe we can have a deal.

And thanks for the heads up on this bro.

I think the motorcycle near it is new, too.

Damn, did I? man, am I forgetful. But I think I got you the one with the Marines. The one on the JC Panny site has Seals!

To me it is the same. At least mine came with a m60, better than the holofot from the seals .

Heads up to Canadian collectors, but some of those sets (not the SEALs though) are available through Sears. I bought the set with that strange buggy that Luis pointed out along with an interesting desert set and a Humvee/Artillery combo. I'm rather quite pleased with them. I was rather surprised to see them in the Christmas wishbook so I was quick to purchase them online and they shipped for 10 bucks, I was blown away. One of the little birds also came with attached miniguns! Miniguns! The set in the JCPenny comes with that other jeep as well, which didn't come with the set I got from Sears, but I did get that same jeep with the desert themed set they had and so they jeep came in desert colours. It was that one that i also got the minibird with attached miniguns. Otherwise the sets are identical.

Now what is that buggy? Does anybody know? It looks like a few vehicles I've seen, but not quite at the same time. Also there's that strange gun attached at the front of the vehicle and I've never seen it before. I'm not exactly an expert when it comes to military equipment, but its rare that I'm completely stumped as to what something else. I don't even know if its a machine gun or grenade launcher, it looks very odd.
