We just recently got wind of the Avengers SHIELD Helicarrier sighting in Canada, and now we have news of a sighting in the US! Toyark boards member weed619 found the Avengers SHIELD Helicarrier at a Toys R Us store in San Diego. When scanned at the price scanner, the price shown was $69.99. Proof can be seen after the pics, happy hunting if you choose to hunt this thing down!
is this where i should have posted this instead of the "look at what ive passed on thread"



passed this up at toys r us in san diego
The SDCC carrier gets it's extra length via a center section installed between the standard carrier's two sections.
Essentially SDCC carrier is comprised of:
Section A (front) 2 feet long +/-
Section B (middle) 1 foot long +/-
Section C (rear) 1 foot long +/-
While the mass retail carrier is comprised of:
Section A (front)
Section C (rear)
So I'm thinking if I bought 2 SDCC carriers I could make a Mega carrier and still have a mass release carrier as well:
Mega carrier: A + B + B + C (5 feet long +/-)
Standard carrier: A + C (3 feet long +/-)
Hmmmmmmmmm........
That's a lot of bucks for 2 SDCC helicarriers but that would be cool! If you ever make a long one let us know!
That's essentially Hasbro's reply during the Marvel toys panel regarding the playsets for MU.
Awesome!
This is news?
Its been sitting at ToysRUs for the last 2 weeks in Dayton Ohio. lol.
Saw it yesterday and mentioned it before this was posted
Where is my news credit?

I have a feeling this one will go to clearance. Unless you are trying to complete the entire avengers toy line, most collectors will go after the superior SDCC version. I'll get one of these when clearance hits, and then break it for a custom battle damaged minicarrier. Can we say....Sodering Gun?

But you are onto my original thought, before the SDCC Helicarrier was announced which was buy 4 reg carriers and splice them into one big mofo of a surfboard. I want a cool display for MegaBloks, Handful of heroes, and Heroics. Can't think of a better way, than to turn the display "shelf" into a functional diorama!
I'm waiting for the china sellers to start selling off the midsections on Ebay lol.

Or maybe the Chinese sellers will get the whole SDCC version for cheap...

Wow, 2 of them! Can't wait to see how that looks!
If you don't mind me asking, how did you get 2 of them? Wasn't it a 1 per person thing?
Seriously, if you're gonna open them both I'd love to see if my theory is right on!
Making a stretch helicarrier and a normal one was the idea I had but they were too big to bring back home. Been waiting for pictures of someone doing it so I can at least see how it would have looked.

Huh I saw this last week thought it was news already...

Interesting, I want to see 4 carrier combined
I say buy buy 1 regular version, some thing mdf board trace the shape cut it out, extend the top and reinforce the bottom, then get 2 hidden hinges that can be mounted on the bottom and each side can rise and lower independantly. You see these a lot in fancy tables where extensions fold in and out or the table-tray raises and lowers. Ikea or a hardware/ cabinet place may carry them, just an idea, $80 for 1 regular carrier, $25 wood, and $25 hinges, the rest is paint, sanding, etc minimal costs, versus, 2 $110 sdcc versions plus shipping plus a regular one lol. Either way you make it, just take lots of pics lol. your ghostrider looks amazing!
So that's a good idea making a top with MDF (it would be hard to get all the detail) but why would you want it to fold out?
