Case Q found in Tesco this evening, strangely in one that has a small toy dept, and I've not found a car worth buying in there for at least a year. Only one missing that I was after was Spare O Mint.

If that's part of / comfirmation of the usual big Tesco order, that means the remaining 988Q cases will be allocated pretty quickly.

Morrisons 14.03.2014
TRU 19.03.2014
Toymaster 25.03.2014
ASDA 26.03.2014
Tesco 27.03.2014

If any other stores are on the lookout for cases (Sainsburys?) they may well get the next wave/case 998R?

Expect (and/or hope) that MARLON 'CLUTCHES' McKAY, TIMOTHY TWOSTROKE and LUIGI & GUIDO will get their first UK release (on a standard international card).

Other possibles:

DAVID HOBBSCAP (with Headset)
SALLY
HARUMI
ALEXANDER HUGO (with Party Hat)
MAMA BERNOULLI and/or DENISE BEAM
HOLLEY SHIFTWELL (with Screen)
LUIS LARUE
TODD 'PIZZA PLANET' TRUCK

There are six singles that haven't been confirmed as yet, Race Fans (3), Allinol Blowout (2) and Mel Dorado Show (1)

Go to Slough Asda, look on top shelf. Sparemint was in that case Q last time I looked!

[carslover]

Shelf label in Tesco. Empty shelf....curious?
Edit:
Found on website. Radio Controlled.

that would have been awesome if it was diecast

[BirchTiger]

Asda in Fareham have regular cars at £4, neons at £5 and the launchers down to £8

[pirelliboy]

Found these planes in Asda at £5 each.
They were in a separate stand with Neons (£5) and Hotwheels (£1)

[carscrazy]

I tried Asda today in the hope of finding those new Planes but they were still over stocked with a couple Franz cases

No new Cars either.

[BirchTiger]

Asda Basingstoke still had planes at £6.47 today and none of the other price cuts either (they did have a rochelle though who I've not seen on a peg for ages).

[millimoo]

Got Matthew "true blue" McCrew today

[boogity]

found case n in our tesco this morning, also loads of neons at 7 quid and the action shifter set at 20 quid, bit late now, bearing in mind asda and sainsburys have had them for yonks and asda now have neons at a fiver
just back from krakow and got a few interesting finds, will report on this later

[BirchTiger]

Sainsbury's don't appear to be able to move the action shifter sets or prop wash junction set for 7.49 (they still have rows of them). I wonder what price next - £4.99 or £3.74?

[StuartW]

Actually found something in TRU
