I'm glad to see you're finding new cases in the UK... I've seen the Floyd Mulvihill case in the US... there have been reports of the Trainer Cruz/Metallic Cal Weathers case at US Walmart stores but I came up empty at 7 stores Friday and Saturday... and I've yet to see Randy/Kurt/Kris Revstopski in a store... thank you for the detailed report, niftynigel.

I ended up buying seven new Cars!

Ryan 'Inside' Laney and Metallic Cal Weathers at Hamleys.

Brush Curber, Yellow Hydraulic Ramone, Floyd Mulvihill, Eric Braker and Rev N Go Tractor across three Disney Stores in London.

I managed to see and get my first ever case (or carton at Disney Store). The assortments are exclusive to Disney Stores (UK), although they may bare some resemblance to US and other assortments. My guess is that this assortment 19A is probably similar to US 958S? It's a bit of a mix of US cases 958Q/R/T.

I've also come to think that US cases 958Q to 958T, which constituted wave one of the 2020 cardbacks were originally supposed to be on 2018-2019 cardbacks and that US 946A was supposed to be the first 2020 case. Probably a mess up at Mattel?

I purchased Noah Gocek at Disney Store. Before everyone gets excited, it would appear that the assortment they have (20A?) is based on the general 963L case at Smyths and Hamleys with a handful of new cars. Nigel Gearsley with Flames was also in the case. The US equivalent is 946A.

Billy Bremner used to be the guitarist in Rockpile in the late 1970s into early 1980s. Other members of the group used to be Dave Edmonds, Nick Lowe and Terry Williams. Both Dave and Nick had chart success. Terry Williams joined Dire Straits after Pick Withers left after their Love Over Gold album in 1982.
