Well, it seems the Search for GGG is going to be futile here in North Central Florida.  I have stopped at multiple Walmarts in the last few days … and my findings are sad … one Walmart has 40 mcQueens and nothing else …. one has 40 Finn and nothing else … a couple have various mixtures of francesco, mater, mcqueen, raoul and finn … and the one I was couting on … the one that has been empty on singles for a a couple weeks …. they got in the MEL Dorado case!!  Seriously …. ugh!!! Cry

Found a bunch of pigs, treasure hunts and Rovers at Wally's lately. They are getting cases or displays of case Q.
The last case, case p with the mystery machines and birds have been in very short supply so far. TRU will probably get a display with them in it the next time they get one.
On the Cars front: a couple Walmarts got in 1 case y with the Geargrinder and so far only getting case D Take Flights. Nothing else new yet.

Found some more Geargrinders this morning.  They have been traded to the people yesterday that asked me for them after I had already traded the ones I found yesterday.  Chances of finding any more out here are slim.  Have found more remains of Case Y, than actual Geargrinders.

That Mel case may have been the GGG case. Mel is in that one too.

That and the Luigis and Guidos.  If you see them hanging out along with Vladimir Trunkov, look hard for the Geargrinders.

Has anyone found Mater Hawk yet? One day at Target, I found 4 NASCA Trucks, 2 Lightning McQueen Hawks, and 3 Falcon Hawk 1s!SurprisedLaugh I thought that the NASCA Truck and Falcon Hawk 1 were a Wal-Mart exclusive. Mattel made a mistake.

(P.S. All this was found on the same daySmileLaugh!!!!)

Mater Hawk is supposed to be in a case with burnt Autonaut McQueen, but I haven't heard of anyone finding one yet.  NASCA truck and Falcon Hawk 1 had Walmart only stickers, but they got a wide release anyway.

My mother was searching her local Target and found one of the "Walmart exclusives" there too! She bought it but also pointed the sticker out to the cashier, who called in her manager, who blamed the people doing returns/exchanges. Ha!

Thanks to Jack's tip regarding Hot Wheels, I was able to score 1 Mystery Machine; out of a full end cap plus a regular aisle display of Hot Wheels there was only 1.  I can confirm that it is the same mold as the SDCC Mystery Machine from this year, only the wheels and paint/decal details are not nearly as detailed.  Also, the bottom seems like plastic and SDCC version might have a metal base.  Still a great find though, and a great reprieve for me as I've not been able to find many of the great Walmart/Target/TRU finds that have been noted on this forum for the past months.  Thanks again Jack!  By the way, I found it in Matteson, IL.
