A-Team toys

[Storetrooper]

A must for me! Sold the old van 5 years ago and keep meaning to get a new one. I guess I'll get a revamped one and see if it's the cure to my itch.

How much were they at Target?

I paid $5.99 for the figure's and $24.99 for the van(wasn't instock), but on another board a member said they were $6.99 at his store.

 

Here's afew shots,

And here's Lynch. Custom posibilities with this guy, merc, cop, CIA, with a head swap.

The action figures are all fine and dandy, but the VAN is going to be the thing everyone will claw their eyes out for. @grumpy@

[RockthePlank]

I am not a G I Joe guy per se, and I definately don't own any 3 3/4 figures, but this is making me consider it. I would probably want to get the van and if the figures look good enough, I will make this my "no 3 3/4 figures" exception. Can't wait for the movie.

If B.A. does not have massive amounts of gold chains, a feather ear ring, his pant legs tucked under his socks I do not care!(lol).

There figures look good, thanks for the pictures. What kind of action is there on those hip joints? Similar to a GI Joe? It really bugs me when they just have hinge hips, like Star Wars and the recent Playmates Star Trek.

[Storetrooper]

Thanks for taking the time to post the pics of the figures and how they look next to the joes.

[slim19722]

They pretty much have Joe articulation minus the torso articulation. The hips are a t-bar joint.

I said if I liked the movie fig's, I would take my customs apart for other use's. But I put the head of my custom Hannible on the movie version and got a "classic" Hannible.

I had the 6 inch and 12 inch BA when I was a kid, along with the ERTL Van, use to go on missions with my ERTL General Lee.

[Storetrooper]

Always hated how B.A. wasn't a whole figure and half painted in the van.

[TMNTFAN85]

i got them yesterday. theyre pretty damn cool! 'face' however had a lil white smeared in the corner of his eye, lucky for me its an easy fix becus i got 'skintone' paint. and he looks pretty good! the trouble is finding the right figure with good paint apps.

 

but they're pretty groovey. worth the cash.

I see that you guys are finding the A-team figures. If some one can get me the four main guys i will trade you my star wars figures...the new jaina solo, jacen solo, dark trooper phase 1 and the white cloud city guard. All in the package and in great shape. And if some one can get me the van then i will pay you for that. I have looked for these figures and even called four targets and nothing. And the star wars figure that i have are just hanging on my wall and dont really want them as much as i want the A-team figures so i am willing to trade.

[George]

Never mind found them this morrning at target. Then on the way home an elderly man ran into me and now my car is badly damaged....but i got the A-team figure though...Lol

[jedimaster-c]

Spotted the van and the figures at both the Target we have in Huntsville.I grabbed the van which they hada good number of.The figures I am not very impressed with.

[spystreak]

definately going to pick these up the Van is the one I want the most

[Heathtown]

Someone put up a review of the van. Pretty nifty, the only disappointment is the loss of space in the back of the van. still though, a 4 seater isn't bad.

Got the van yesterday, 24.99 @ Target. It's all kinds of awesome, except the rubber attachment are very soft. The headlights are cheesy little yellow LED's , and has like 6 sayings. Awesome van though, Joes fit good. My Dreadnoks are gonna go on a joyride.

[Draven79]

I was more impessed with the Van than the figs. The pics online make em look better than they are. Pretty crappy sculpting and paints imo.

Van and Figures at Big bad Toystore

[GPM in ICT]

Does anyone know if the heads will fit on a Joe body? I have a custom BA in mind using the Heavy Duty ROC body from the Kmart 4 pack. I picked one up the other day for $6 just to have another MARS trooper, but I'm thinking a little tweaking and the HD body could work pretty well if the BA head fits.

I agree, I was soo ready to pick these up until i actually saw them in the store. then i just put it back and walked away. I will definetly pick up the van. It does sound perfect for a dreadnok van. Whats funny is before the news for the movie came out, I kept seeing a real A-team style van going around here in san diego. Haven't seen it lately, but it was awesome.

[Viper Hunter]

Nice ride for the Dreadnoks or even some NightForce Joes?

[Wheeljack35]

The TV show was actually stupid it allways seemed at the end of the show the bad guys would be in a big accident that in real life they would be killed.They would crwal out of these mangled vehicles like cartoon characters.So during the first season I said to hell with this

 

I did see the toys today and will give the movie a try hoping it won't be as stupid as the TV show

 

 

One thing the TV show never addressed ..What happened to Triple A after the first few episodes?
