I visited 4 Walmarts, 5 Targets and 2 TRU today. I looks like Target is my best bet these days to find anything new. Almost all have restocked with the Prince case and the other half the 2013 stuff.
Unfortunately I've been a bit too late but today I confirmed that I found the complete case at Target. It also appears that all of the Cars are now being sold under one number both old and new as my receipt simply said 8 Cars at $3.49.
This really makes it difficult since now if there is something in the stockroom it could be just about anything.

After reading Materrocks post yesterday I decided to hit up a few targets today to see if I would have some luck. Found reminants of case "B" at the store on 120th & Washington, but only new cars left were Holly & Grem. I asked an employee if they could check to see if any other local stores have any and they said that the store on 144th showed 65 in stock! But I just came from there & they had none? Went back to have them check the back room & they said that all of them were already on the floor. After further investigation we found that they have MERGED BOTH PRODUCT NUMBERS TO ONE DPCI!!!!! WTF Target!

Well, stepped in and what I found frustrated me – there was a Mater Hawk and Burnt Auto McQueen. I needed both the Rescue Chopper and McQueen Hawk from that case, but they were the only two there! It's weird that someone left the new ones but took all the old ones (the other Mater Hawk was gone too)

Lane, can you please pick one Prince for me? Nothing of that case in my zone… 🙂

I was asked the other day for Bindo too, he's almost a peg warmer over here in Texas, every Target has a least 4 and I'm leaving them all.

Both cards, nice!
I need a Bindo and a Prince if you happen to find them Lane. I had a trade worked out, but he disappeared.

Targets out here in the east still look the same as they did around Christmas of last year. All Finns! If the new cardbacks have the same DCPI as the old ones, it may be a while before we get the new ones.

With all these great finds, I headed to Target scanned a Car to see if they had more in the back. Lo and behold, they did whereas in the past there was nothing. Asked the employee if he could bring out what was in the back. The anticipation was unpalpable…was it going to be one of the last 2012 cases or a new 2013 case? Would i get the Prince Wheeliam I have been seeking forever? Saw the target employe come back out with the box, looked in and what was it…..Case A from 2011 with the do not open before May 2011 denoted on the box! Wahoo!

My Targets have been restocking with 2011 Case A. How many cases did Mattel rope them into buying?!?

Was just in my target yesterday and there was a mel, rod, and jeff…does that mean i missed the kabuto's?? Case T? They were not there 2 days ago! 🙁
Lane Change i keep praying to see the shelves stocked like in your pics! Yesterday in walmart they did condense all old ones to 2 pegs, so im hoping new ones will appear soon!

I think Lane Change got the Dallas area Targets to repackage their peg warmers and ship them elsewhere.
