Yep, I got mine a few days ago. I tried to post about it, but it was when the board was insane and not letting me post.

They have the Patriot Grizzly, too. Same price.

Does Tuesday Morning have a West Coast equivalent?

I went to all the ones around me about 2 weeks ago. Seems like they only have 1 grizzly & 1 copter at each store and have not restocked the copter :( Better to have 1 than none tongue.gif

Angry Beef, check their website. I didn't know there was one in Spokane until I looked at their store locater (despite having driven by the store no fewer than once a week a for the last nine months). It's just one of those stores that kinda blends into the background.

Wow, there's quite a few in Sacramento. One not more than 5 miles from my house.

I'll guess I'll hit it tomorrow.

So true, I never even heard of this store before. Once I heard about it, I figures that must be a big chain somewhere else. When I went to the store locater, there were 2 of them less than 3 miles from my house :D

Basically all they have is the Copter, the Grizzly, and the 12" Big Brawler w/ gun station. I'd recommend picking up the copter and selling it on ebay, if nothing else.

Okay...I decided to buy one for myself since I passed on the Chopper several times last year at Target since I didn't want to pay full price back then.

Now I just have to make room for it.

What I don't get is how the CCC survived the Christmas season and end up at discount shop for 1/2 off since almost everybody had a hard time finding a CCC around nation months back. :rolleyes:

Well, go out and get them guys ...there are ton of Tuesday Mornings in L.A./OC/So Cal area.

Thanks again davegahan1976!!!!!

The one near my house is no longer visible by humans. I drove past the address and where my mom remembered it being but there was nothing.. I guess I'll try to find the other one in Sac. But man if I find some guy with a ton of them at the Comic Con here tomorrow I'm going to spazz out... Well not really.. I've already done JvsC Tomax and Xamor customs that are pretty close to the one that come with the chopper.. and I don't really collect vehicles... Ahh well.. nevermind.

I found a Copter at a Tuesday Morning here as well. Were these things hard to come by originally? I've been out of the hardcore Joe loop for about 4 years, but always scanned the Joe aisle to see what was new. Don't think I ever saw this in a regular Joe store.

Just to comfrim what has already been stated...

I stopped in at a TM here in Madison on Friday and got myself the 1 chopper they had (in the back room I might add) for $14.99.

Other things I found at the store:
12 inch Brawler for $10
12 inch Barrel Roll for $10
12 inch Cobra Commander for $10
PG Tank for $14.99 but the box was damaged.

I myself only got the chopper for $14.99 if anyone is interested in the 12 inch stuff, let me know and maybe we can work out a trade or something.

I found the elusive store.. The sign is tiny.
I picked up two choppers. They had some grizzlies and some 12 inch figures.

I've been to two of the nearest stores to me in San Diego. No joy on the choppers. Hopefully one will turn up. As for the Grizzly, I found it for $12 at the local Kmart. Cleaned 'em out of all 3.

I went to one today and nothing. BUt I got directions to 2 more at least I am going by tomorrow. Also maybe 4 more I can hit tomorrow. IF I find any I'll pick up a few.
I'll post back here tomorrow.

Lucid....

The exact same thing happened with me.

I never had heard of the store, saw the post Friday morning, did a store search online that afternoon and by evening I had scored the only Copter in Madison, WI.

If you don't seen any on the shelf, as if they have any in back. The store I went to only had one and it was hidding in the back.


Good luck finding stuff...

Picked up 3 today. Anyone in Arlington don't goto the one on West Arkansas or the one on South Cooper. Also the one in North Arlington on Green Oaks. Also the one in Grapevine did not have any but they did have a few PG's left.

Side Note:
Picked up 2 of each Mech's at Grapevine's Wal-Mart. Was looking for spray paint and got them instead.

All in all a very good day. Now to go buy a lotto ticket and win me 125 Million Dollars!

06-16-2004, 04:36 PM

I found some in Indianapolis.

I'd never even heard off this store. I can't believe that the crappiest looking store I've ever been to has one of the hardest to find Joe toys of last year. Maybe Big Lots will start carrying the Crimson Venom Cycle now...

I checked both TM stores in my area, and nothing. I really wanted to get ahold of one of the CCC. I saw it one time at Wal-Mart and was low on cash at the time. It still bothers me I passed on it. If anyone comes across a large number of them and can spare one,I'll pay more than cost.

Drummer, e-mailed back. Anyways unless I find some more that's the last one I have for now unless someone offer's me something really good for my other one. (Or is that my Son's other one? (G)) But I do get paid on Wed's and since my bank is about 4 town's away from me (I live in the D/FW Metroplex) I'll check from here to there and back and update on here with what I find.
