Cheap MS parts @ Target! YMMV
Just a heads-up.... Target stores in the Portland, OR area have Microsizers parts on clearance, not sure about other states so YMMV.
All MS bodies are $1.24, Hop-up kits $3.94, Lap counters $4.38, Powerbrutes arena $7.38, and other misc parts I didn't really look at.
Didn't see any full car kits on sale.

The targets in my area, Kansas City, had all micro rcs discounted, usually by half!
Subs, tanks, battle arenas, starter sets... whatever is on the shelf was marked down.

Man,
I wish MY Target had anything besides MS sports.
They don't carry any of the kits.

I know how you feel, my target used to only carry Sports too, and they never had them in stock-it was only about 3 weeks ago (and about 5 weeks ago they didn't have anything Hobbico at all!)when they got bodies, PRO series, PowerBrutes, and hop up kits. Your target should eventually get those tho, because if it's a chain store they usually sell the same products, even if the shipments are staggered a little.

On New Years day I bought a MS Pro 27mhz for $6.98 !, 2 days before that I bought one for $13.98 at a different Target. Looks like they're trying to clear their shelves. Could it be that TRU and Target are getting out of the Microsizer business ???

Indications point to yes.
