GL seems kinda slow right now. Haven't seen any of the newest releases on the pegs for some time now. Still haven't seen the current Speed Channel anywhere around here.?

I read somewhere County Roads 2 is coming with a D-100 with a plow, and a 77 Dodge Ramcharger.:thumbsup:
Just dont remember where.
Anyone?

The Speed Channel series #3 turned up at my Meijers a couple of weeks ago, and I got the cool 71 Charger Super Bee.:cool:

Muscle Car Garage 9 will be out in the next week or two....featuring a 1968 Buick GS 400 Hardtop, and 2004 Mercury Marauder, among others.

No Speed 3 in the mid-atlantic yet, it was Target or nothing for previous Speed releases so IDK where to look. No meyers or menards here, only Lamemart and TRU. MCG9 is due anytime, probably already on it's way to Wallys in Canada, they got MCG8 long before OLDs in the US. We will probably eventually see them at TRU. Was kinda hoping to see more Hobby2 and BB at TRU but it hasn't happened yet, looks like KMart(lamemart) got the balance of Flames so I don't expect to see those again at TRU. TRU is always VERY slow to restock after Christmas but it should start soon.

Same goes here on the Virginia Coast. I've been hearing some STRONG rumors that TRU is going out of business later this year. My sis used to be the manager at one in Washington and in not so many words, told me the "writing is on the wall." Poor management would be the cause at 3 of the 4 TRU's around here.

Got the Speed 3 and latest Auction Block cars a few weeks ago..some very nice ones in those releases. Looking forward to the MCG9 ones (the stock ones).

Posted a preview of Muscle Car Garage 9 which is slated in the next week or so I believe follwed by the Accessory set which will also be a few weeks out.

Pre-Sales available on both to secure your sets.

I used to be a member of the UTH club last year also but didn't renew. What's going to happen to GL if no major stores are going to carry them? Is there a chance some other retailer in the US will pick them up like WalMart or like Toyparknyc said are we only going to be able to get them online? I love these castings, and now they will be so much harder to find.

I certainly hope the TRU closing isn't really in the works because it's the only place where I can find (in one place) GL, JL, HW, M2, SC and Maisto.
