    My Target had those 8-packs marked at $34.98 for a few weeks and when I checked yesterday they still had at least a dozen of them.I stopped there after work today and they were all gone so I knew they must've marked them down more.Luckily I found one set lying there.

    Not that I'm aware of.I haven't even seen any of the 3 3/4" figures at TJ Maxx.

    I did just recently see a couple Quinjets at TJ Maxx so maybe more stuff will be showing up soon.

    Its very unlikely that the 6 inch scale line will show up at any TJ Maxx, Marshalls, ROSS, or wherever. The Iron Man 2, Thor, and Captain America figures never showed up either IIRC.

    Nice! I saw one at a target for the $15 price point. I passed since I already got one at retail... didn't think I needed another set... lol

    Iron Man Armored Avenger 6" figures showed up at the end of 2011, same with Captain America First Avenger 6" Walmart exclusive figures.

    Saw a ton of them here too, and Amazon has it for less than $30. I thought about it, but decided that the huge plank of plastic isn't worth the space it takes up.

    Yeah, but they were part of the Iron Man Armored Avenger line that were made for all mass retail and not made specifically for Walmart, that's why they ended up at TJ Maxx and Marshalls. The Armored Avenger line also did not get the original movie color version of Iron Man Mark IV and V that were exclusive to Walmart's Iron Man 2 except as repaints in the Armored Avenger line.
    This is the first time I have ever heard that the Captain America 6 inch scale line had showed up.

    Need some help:
    i remember seeing some kind of remote control helicarrier at ToysRus, pretty sure it was an exclusive. It wasn't very big, no more then 10" long. But i can't seem to find any online record of it's existence.
    They sell a RC Quinjet, but i recall only weeks ago seeing a small helicarrier that was fairly screen accurate. TRU doesn't list it on their site. And Google has failed me.
    HELP PLEASE!!!

    I got nothing. All I can come up with is the Quinjet that you mentioned.

    it's amazing. Like a black hole of information on this thing. I'm gonna have to go over there & take pic just to show the internet it exist. It's been shelfwarming the TRU shelves for months.

    Hate to bump a thread this old. Is there a consensus between the 3.75 inch Shatterblaster Iron Man and the Fusion Armor?

    Trying to collect I-VII in this size but not sure which I should go for. I know Shatterblaster has more articulation but does Fusion Armor win in any other way? Does one fit better with the Iron Man 2 figures over the other?

    Shatterblaster is slightly taller than Fusion because of the double knees and ankles. He's still a bit short compared to the Mk.I-VI and Mk. 42 suits, but it's less noticable.
