Suprise of the year, T.J. Maxx?

Post by Tuner1989 »

Just another boring night running errands right? Wrong, i come across this gem in where i would have never had thought to look. I spotted the box from across the store, in the rather small toy section. I thought to myself theres no way in hell that's the microsizers emblem. Walked over and it was :eek: , last one too :-D ! It almost gave me that old feeling i would get when shopping at target to pick up microsizers. Those were the days, anyways i'll stop rambling here's the pics.

I've never seen that set before? It's either the Bit CharG or the 3 Body MS set. Nice Pick-up! :-o
I still always check the toy sections of TJMaxx (which I just did on Sunday), Kohls, Marshall's, etc for just such leftovers.

I picked up one after work today!!! :-D

Last one left.

I think I might take a ride out to the other TJMaxx and check.

Thanks for ther heads up. :cool:


This is one set that has been eluding me. Not anymore. :-o


Shouldn't or couldn't this be in the "Da Hook-up" section? :???:
I had a bit of trouble trying to find this post to give praise.

:???: I guess this could have been in either, i thought about it but wasnt sure earlier. I knew a pimp would move it, if it felt out of place. :-o


No problem SG, glad to hear you scored a set!

Hmmm, I don't see any Hobbico logo. Could these have been intended for a different market? I just think its odd that Tower never cleared thesed out, they remained $30, but then they're showing up at TJMaxx. I would have ordered one if they ewere only $15. :mad:

KB Cleared them out a while ago....
http://bitpimps.lixlink.com/pages/phpFo ... php?t=7305

I got the Ferrari & Lambo sets for $14.95ea when KB was clearing them out.
If you look at their website now, they're back to $34.95. I also picked up a couple off eBay for $15.00 incl s/h. 8-)

I was in Houston today and saw a T.J. Maxx so thought I would stop by and see what they had and low and behold I got the Ferrari & 2 Lambo sets for $12.00 each set. The box on the one set had some wear but the cars were all still in great condition!

Thanks for letting me know about the T. J. Maxx hook up! Next time I go to Houston I might check out some more Maxx's :-o
