    Breaker looks so generic. Anyone have a link to one of the add on sets with some more "Breaker looking" accessories?

    Not sure how many/which companies are making them.

    RAM looks pretty hot though. :)

    Picked up Breaker for a buddy today at Target. It was one per person at the Target I went to. The employee said they got 12 in today so hopefully they're coming en masse for everyone who wants one. Popfinder is working for him. TCIN is 81959633.

    Got the Cobra Comms and Grenadier sets in today. The UMP has the Grid Iron logo stamped on it, but it's barely noticeable at that scale so it doesn't bother me at all.

    I just went to another Target in my area that was showing stock. They said they didn't have anymore but showed me on the scanner they're getting more on Thursday. I'll try to go Thursday for anyone here who needs one but hopefully this means it'll be like Bludd and will be easy to find.

    that looks awesome...I just cannot stand the fact it has tacky tape instead of a peg to attach the pack to a figure. I get it's to be more compatible with other lines but in all honesty that makes it suck a little for classified. For the price I don't expect to add more money into it adding straps to hold it in place or tack it on to eventually get loose when it loses adhesion.

    I’m sitting outside a Target right now while my wife is inside the store. If I call her and ask her to look she’ll kill me for the idea of spending that much on one toy. Safer to let the PO come in (hopefully). First world problems.

    An enterprising nerd with a 3D printer could probably whip up a small strip with a peg on it. Print it the length and width of the sticky-tape. Affix the sticky-tape to the strip, then peg the backpack onto your Joe.

    I am not that nerd, but if that nerd is reading this post, I have a few bucks I’d part with for a few of those strips. At least three of them; maybe more.

    Heck, let me go one step further: is anyone reading this, nerd or not, willing to try to make something like this? There’s certainly a need for it. My ignorance of the process is boundless, however. I’d just like to fully kit up my toys.

    Seems like it would be a lot easier if the nerds at gridiron just modified their files and added an option to get a pegged or sticky version.

    Went to another Target and they said they are expecting a shipment of 6 on Thursday's truck, so to check with them Thursday night or Friday morning.

    Meh, whatever. I don't even want him that badly. If I come across him on the shelf, I'll definitely grab him. If not, oh well.

    I can't go to a Target until Thursday anyway ...

    Popfindr is showing 0 stock anywhere in Maine. 15 in Greenland NH, 2 in Somersworth.
