Scored a Pizza Planet Todd and Denise Beam :> I'm pretty sure it was the whole case.

Also seen all of the RS 500 cars.

This was everything I got this past week from just two Walmarts that I went to in Kansas City this past week. I also went to a Target and saw a bunch of Neons but passed on all of them.
The weird thing was that I did not see a single Denise Beam anywhere I went to.. were they just not in that assortment or is somebody in the Kansas City area obsessed with that Car?

Great finds, Fillmore1234!

It looks to me as if Mattel or Walmart warehouses packed the sidecap with whatever Cars they could find... I've seen 4 sidecaps with 2 total Todd and 5 Denise Beam... and a sidecap that had the Cars picked out and put on the pegs... I think I've only seen 2 Alexander Hugo with Party Cap in 5 sidecaps total.

I got the RS 500 1/2 set today at TRU. I paid $5.99 for each. What are the prices at the other stores?

[bobbyjack]

^^^Same at Walmart + or - a few cents.

Stopped at a TRU today and found:

1 (RS Classics) Costanzo Della Corsa
1 (RS Classics) Dirt Track McQueen
1 (2014) Wild Miles Axlerod

PS. Dirt Track McQueen has Milton Calypeer on the back. Keep your fingers crossed for this re-release!)

Found most of international version of case E in aussie kmart today. Missing only Louis and Holly. Oh well, I'll keep trying!

Finally found Geartrude unexpectedly at BJs yesterday, since I hadn't seen her anywhere else I didn't pass her by.

I found a 2014 Ramone Short Card at Marshalls. Seems like the International Movie Moments are all done.

Went to 3 walmarts today and only found leavings of the Todd case. Still on the hunt for him
