Found these in Wal-Mart last night in Chicago suburb. Not pictured but also got Brand New Mater (even though I have a couple I can't not get them) and Race Tow Tom.

Just a thought, but even if you don't need a release you see, think about picking it up anyway and offering it up on here. There are a lot of collectors that aren't going to see a case F. Or D, C, B, A…
Someday you might need something and you are more likely to get help if you contribute to the Cars community.

Couldn't agree more!!
Most of my collection is from trades. Older stuff I'd not be able to get (well, without going eBay route). Especially with new stock I tend to grab extras of everything I can to help others on here.
I really only ever leave things behind if they are in rough shape.
Yesterday perfect example. I left two Cars from the Case F remenants, Cruisin McQueen looked like he was ran over with a cart like literally the blister was all cracked and Uncle Topolino appeared as though someone was trying to "free" him but got caught. He wasn't hanging on the pegs he was sitting on top of a Heavy Metal Mater Three Pack.

Hi everyone,
Great posts!. I've never traded before. Can someone explain to me the typical procedure for a trade. Do both party's pay the same shipping amount? What if I send something and the other person doesnt send their item. What is my recourse?
Thanks.

I've made countless trades not only on this forum but another one as well. I can only speak for myself when I say I have had nothing but great success with trades.
Yes, typically each person pays to ship to the person they are trading with because it usually balances out. If one or the other is shipping more then that is something you work out amongst yourselvees.
Look to see if the person you are trading with has feedback. You'll see on here the positive feedback way outweighs the bad.
People usually give a tracking number as well.
It's ok to be nervous but as I've said I wouldn't have a big part of my collection without trades.
Set up a post under the trades with your wants and haves and wait for responses 🙂

Is it the same Fred that was released a few years ago or is there anything different about him? He was always a favorite of mine, so cute!

Was at Walmart buying random things and found my first Rip in the wild today. Not much else of the shelves so not sure why it was out. Had been able to trade for one on T5AD a few months back, but nevertheless was happy to see it.

Some of the older cases are being put out, but it's clearly hit or miss. I'm wondering if some of those aren't even partial boxes that they never finished putting out and when they got new cases in they just put out the new case. I noticed what appeared to be remnants of case A and B, but given the cars left, I'm having trouble believing the other cars got bought up that fast, so I'm thinking partial boxes for some Walmarts. Nice find though.

Found one wave 4 Micro Drifters 3-pack at Walmart today.
The one with Rip Clutchgoneski that Met wrote about a month ago.

No sign of any other recent Drifters, the mostly empty pegs had two black package 3-packs.
