Question New TRU box sets

Pony Power 2, GM Muscle and Trucks/SUV's are the only 3 sets out, correct?

I dont think they made their way to New England yet? I've been to 4 different TRU this week, nothing. I never saw the last round of 10 car boxes either.

Left class eaely today to go swing by the TRU over by school, nothing still. Went to another TRU not too far away and there they were. Saw all three sets. I even found my first wild white today, the 71 Olds 442, actually I found two. I got a weird stare from the lady that walked by me as I was dancing around. Wooohooo Still havent seen any Big Boats though

I got the Firebirds from the Pony Power 2 & GM Muscle. (Yellow 68 & black 70/71 whatever it is) $2 each plus bought a few more custom wheel birds from the guy. {Thanks edseldave!!!!!} Beats paying $20 to get it. The Pony Power 1 yellow one (78) in the five pack is on the way. $2 + $1 shipping on e-bay. Beats paying $10 for it.

I know the feeling. I just checked today to see that my TRU got in another set of 2-packs, but no new 10-car sets... And I could get them in the store too, if it wasn't for those darn licensing restrictions...

after you posted this I went and they had no jl`s but they did have that ertl pro stock come in.I couldn`t open it though because the local scalper started an argument.
