    If someone wants to hook a guy up with Overkill and Drag Strip, shoot me a PM please. :D 

    To think I actually sold my old SE Drag Strip!

    So people keep talking about these possibly being at TJ Maxx and other stores that Marshalls owns. Has anyone found them at those stores yet? Seems like I'm only hearing sightings at Marshalls so far.

    I'd like to know too. There's only a TJ Maxx in my area. And that place is just a mess, toys scattered everywhere.

    I checked my Marshall's, and that was a big strike. The place was a dump, too. I had to check my wallet when I left to make sure it was still there.

    The Marshalls by my house here in San Antonio has a couple of Drag Strips and Overkills.

    I am willing to pick up a pair in trade for SE-01 and SE-02.

    PM me if you would like to do a trade.

    Thanks

    I got an Overkill and Dragstip in IL but when I found them only primes and megs were on the shelf then I I looked at the stack of boxes in the isle.and rifled through em..:eek: ... So I'm thinking that mabye there not all on the shelfs yet also the price tags were really yellow even though I pulled em right out of the boxes.

    Mine only had Dragstrip and Overkill, but I bought every single one of them. The best $75 I've spent in a long time.

    Good afternoon all.

    I just picked up 2 Drag Strips from my local Marshalls. I am looking to trade with someone(s) for a Megs and/or Prime. So, if you access to a Megs and/or Prime in your area and not Drag Strip/Overkill and "want/need" one, PM me so we can make a trade.

    edit: also have 2 Overkills to trade too.


    Thanks

    I feel the other way. Hasbro did one run of these so the amount is the same whether sold through HTS or at Marshalls. It's an awesome deco and I'd prefer Hasbro make them and then dump extras to Marshall's then never make em. I got it from HTS when it was 20% and free shipping so I paid $14 for them and I've had them for a year. From Marshall's it's $11 after taxes. If Hasbro had made half the amount they probably would have had to charge $20 each. I prefer cheap over novelty/exclusivity.

    Yes! I went to my local Marshalls on Michigan Ave in Dearborn, Mi and they all of them. I didn't think I would find any, so that's great. I picked up 2 Dragstrips and an Overkill and left 1 Megatron, 5 Primes, 1 Overkill, and 1 more Dragstrip. If anyone goes there to look for em go to the toy section in the boys department, they are scattered about over the shelves some underneath some of the other toys. Also I checked TJ Maxx and AJ Wright, nothing.

    Happy Hunting guys.
