Anyone else found Motoreau in the wild yet?
I am going to claim a First Found on this one.
We got Motoreau last night also, but by all means claim first. We haven't seen the new Take Flight Cars, that's what we were really looking for.

Sent lots of pics to Met; I expect he'll do a post tomorrow.
Box has one piece Gorvette and Lewis ("new"), two piece Raoule and two piece Bruno. Bruno is very nice, two piece is fine since the front bumper hides the seam.

Mine was $5.99. It didn't ring up, the cashier asked me how much, I said umm $15.99 I think. She stood there for a minute then asked the head cashier, she scanned it, saw it d with her handheld. It didn't come up, she told the cashier $5.99 and I immediately accepted their offer.
Carsma is Carsma, I was due.

Woburn MA Target-Nothing new. Take Flight was from the first case. No singles. Only Sub Finns as far as deluxe. Bought a MicroDrifter three pack for my son and was again dismayed that LMQ is in two of the selections-more ripping off of the customer.

$24.94! That's almost the price of a 7 pack! If they mark these that high, they will rot along with all the other ones that have been sitting there for 15 months. If I find this at my local Target for more that $18.99, it will be an easy pass. I would rather use that money to get something online I have been trying to find in a store for over a year now; like Leland Turbo or Mama Topolino.

On Monday, while shopping for school supplies I finally found new cars in Target in Long Island. I found becky wheelin' and don crumlin in the pegs!!. Picked up Becky. Unfortunately, I had purchased the "DON" in ebay a few weeks ago. No Officer Murakami however. My kids I think are losing interest as they wanted to get some Pokemon stuff :(. Oh well, dad picked Becky up for himself.

Not sure under what authority you guys are making these judgements?
If an item is offered for sale, but no price is marked on the item, it is not theft, bad Carsma or anything else negtive or wrong to simply enter into a contract for sale. Commercial law has long established a system of offers, acceptance and consideration. When the buyer provides some consideration in exchange for the item on offer and the seller accepts that consideration, a contract has been made.
There are 3 key principles which make a contract valid.
1. Offer – a good or a service needs to be offered.
2. Acceptance – the buyer must be willing to have what is being offered
3. Consideration – the amount the buyer is willing to give in exchange for the good or service in the offer.
Other secondary principles are often mentioned, such as ability to contact i.e. being of legal age, sound mind etc.
The act of price switching, or intentionally altering price tags or stickers on merchandise in an effort to pay an amount less than what the owner is actually selling the item for, is a form of shoplifting. Theft, petty theft and criminal conversion are the most frequent legal terms applied to the act of shoplifting.
In this case the owner did not specify a price for the item, so there was never an opportunity to make an effort to pay less than the price the item was offered for.
The seller, in this case, accepted the buyer's consideration. The seller had every opportunity to reject the consideration or make a counter offer.
Offer, acceptance, consideration. That's all there is to it.

Tom you lost me when you misspelled / misused the word "judgment".
And you conveniently left out anything about ethics, morals, honesty, and general trustworthiness.
…man, living near D.C. must be contagious!

We all know that Target uses only one DCPI number for their 4-packs, and we all know the price is $18.99 (or more depending on the store). Unless the OP was truly ignorant, saying that the price is $6.99 is a lie, and that constitutes theft in my book.

Wow — tough crowd. I, in no way, think anything is wrong with the lower price.

He still paid $7 for only 1 car that he wanted. Mattel putting an exclusive in a box set with 3 cars that most collectors have already isn't very ethical, moral, honest, or trustworthy either. Basically, it is the same as taking advantage of us. Target's mistake for putting product out that is not in the system yet and the Target "team members" too lazy to go to the toy aisle to look at the price of a 4 pack.
