    Unproduced Spytroops Playset found!

    Hey guys, this weekend I went to one of my local comic shops here (they buy and sell old toys, sometimes I can find a deal) and well they had this Spytroops Urban Assault set sitting there. This was supposed to be like the Operation Avalance that K-Mart had. The figures that are in here are intersting as they are all old scuplts. It has the Genral Hawk and Ace from the TRU exclusive Rattler. The BJ's exlcusive Wet Suit, Roadblock, red Storm Shadow, and red Fast Blast Viper. Plus the vehicles were the purple Fang III (piloted by Ace) and the Venom Cylce. There is nothing on the back of the box and only the CD is in there, no comic. Over all not a bad find for $9.00!!

    Wow, very cool!

    Any chance of you finding another one of them?
    This is where my signature would be if I had something to say.

    I would agree though the box looks pretty original to me. I like the Wet Suit though. Strange they didn't put any Alley-Vipers in the "Urban Assault Set"

    I have to agree that it does look rather odd. A few points I would make is that you have BJ's exclusive figs & 2 figs from the Rattler repaint in what was it 97. Then a bunch of crap vehicles that were put out in spy troops. The CD is from the spy troops mission disk figures. It is very odd to say the least. I would question it if nothing else.

    However if it is indeed real then what a find. I would try contacting some people from hasbro and get there input on it.

    hmm, given that you and i both live in land of wal mart, i wonder if this isnt some kind of pre production piece that a vendor took to walmart to try to sale and it didnt fly. maybe it was left and found its way to the comic shop, what comic shop was it??

    I know a surefire way to tell if it is legit--is there about 13 wires/strings holding each piece in place making it nearly impossible to remove the toys? If so it is the real deal.

    Seriously, nice find.
