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 ???

Unhappy

G I hope Target is not getting out of the sale of MS i just got a cheap clone as stocking stuffer and fell in love with it, so i ran out to target to find a MS pro but found as many have that they only had sport (and one left at that!!) I got it 4 $15 and speed set 4 $3.98 and a supra body kit 4 $2.48 . (what a deal!) So i hope they stay in the MS game!!!!!!!!

our

We're always pleased to hear that our guests appreciate the exceptional
