YellowBronc 09-08-2005, 02:58 PM Left class eaely today to go swing by the TRU over by school, nothing still. Went to another TRU not too far away and there they were. Saw all three sets.

Wooohooo :thumbsup: Still havent seen any Big Boats though craftymore 09-08-2005, 03:02 PM Big Boats and Pony Power 2 showed up in Terre Haute Ind last week. No whites though.

I think the GM set is the nicest set JL has done. Al Markin 09-10-2005, 09:24 AM I've seen both Big Boats and Pony Power 2 here on Long Island. Seen all three ten car sets in TRU Carle Place Friday afternoon. All looked real nice, they were on the top of the little kiosk. I left them behind, spent a ton of money on my 1/1 scale project this weekend! 40Intrepid 09-10-2005, 11:10 AM Roseville Mi. TRU had the Gm Muscle and Pony Power sets, waiting for the Gotta Hemi set! :thumbsup: FASTSRT4 09-10-2005, 11:24 AM MyTRU finally put out some cars. They should have been pulled on Thursday night to stock on Friday morning. But they pulled them on Friday night when I was there late. They had 1 case of the tru ex mopar no car & 1 case of classic plastic (I already had those). My real find was a case of ertl Pro Stock, 2 1968 mustangs & 2 Dusters, all were 1 of 1600.I am keeping a mustang & duster, the rest go to my sons who collect. FASTSRT4 09-10-2005, 11:26 AM any pics of the gotta hemi set???? Puppycat 09-10-2005, 12:11 PM any pics of the gotta hemi set????

They did have the 1/18 Ertl cars though . Inciteful 09-10-2005, 02:22 PM Anyone know the SKU #'s on these? Puppycat 09-10-2005, 03:41 PM Anyone know the SKU #'s on these? No SKU # only item number above bar code: Pony Power 51405 Trucks 51406 GM 51407 Swifty 09-10-2005, 05:55 PM Grabbed one of each set today. Nice cars- and three new castings for me: '05 Mustang, '67 Nova, and '59 Impala. By the way- I love the 1965 Mercury Cougar convertible... midtown 09-10-2005, 10:08 PM Met up with Jeff Koch (cool guy!) today at TRU and got a set of the GM cars. I love the Chevelle and Nova. Swifty 09-10-2005, 10:32 PM Met up with Jeff Koch (cool guy!) today at TRU and got a set of the GM cars. I love the Chevelle and Nova. I may have gotten more cars today, but I'd say you had the better shopping experience. :thumbsup: FLOYDFROG 09-11-2005, 01:15 AM Picked up the GM Muscle set yesterday. Passed on the Working Class Trucks set. Only 4 in that set that I would keep. '59 Impala & '67 Nova are nice castings. Would rather see a stock hood on the Nova, but the L79 air cleaner is really cool. Stock rims on both would have also been a big plus! :confused: FLOYDFROG 09-11-2005, 02:01 AM The GM Muscle box set lists a '69 Impala convertible. Was this casting scrubbed at the last minute and replaced with the 'Vette ? :confused: ? or is it just an error on the box? Swifty 09-11-2005, 02:27 AM The GM Muscle box set lists a '69 Impala convertible. Was this casting scrubbed at the last minute and replaced with the 'Vette ? :confused: ? or is it just an error on the box? It also says it's a "twelve car set" on the back of the box. The Pony Power set lists the '69 Cougar as a '65. FASTSRT4 09-11-2005, 06:17 AM Anyone know the SKU #'s on these? THE NUMBERS ON THE BOTTOM OF THE BOX ARE, MUSTANGS 036881391616, THE DUSTER 036881391609. THESE ARE THE NUMBERS BELOW THE BAR CODE. HOPE IT HELPS. :wave: DAN mountainboy 09-11-2005, 10:13 AM CHECKED THE 2 TRU's IN SYRACUSE, WITH NO LUCK! JUST A FEW CHEEZY MONOPOLY 2PACKS. NO NEW 10 CAR BOXED SETS....:( fe428cj 09-11-2005, 11:21 AM It also says it's a "twelve car set" on the back of the box. The Pony Power set lists the '69 Cougar as a '65.Considering the first year for the Cougar was 1967. Maybe there was a 1965 prototype. :D cj kanabrew 09-11-2005, 11:49 AM CHECKED THE 2 TRU's IN SYRACUSE, WITH NO LUCK! JUST A FEW CHEEZY MONOPOLY 2PACKS. NO NEW 10 CAR BOXED SETS....:( Welcome to the board. Check out your TOYSRUs on Erie Blvd first..higher volume store. Also ask in bikes/boys for them to check in computer..SIS or intrant. I used to work in Syracuse Thought I'd help a fellow collector.GARY They should have the 2pks. kanabrew 09-11-2005, 11:53 AM THE NUMBERS ON THE BOTTOM OF THE BOX ARE, MUSTANGS 036881391616, THE DUSTER 036881391609.

Not enough I wanted in the Working Class to warrant getting it. edseldave 09-11-2005, 04:45 PM Floydfrog ; Its a printing error on the boxes , guess the Chinese cant decifer english too good , & the proof readers at JL missed it ! The 69 Impala I believe is delayed , dont think its scrapped .

The 69 Impala I believe is delayed , dont think its scrapped . Delayed- the prototypes were at Lightning Fest. Jstar 09-11-2005, 05:24 PM No new sets at the TRU I go to. I did stop by Target and was glad to see they are stocking JL's again. Porsche911GT3 09-11-2005, 06:13 PM Nothing at my TRU either. 78REDBIRD 09-11-2005, 08:44 PM Went to two TRU today no box sets but did pick up the new Trucks & SUV's set.
