Last Target shipment was Clue

and last TRU was the VW 2 and plenty of Pony Power box sets.

Anyone else having better luck?

No better luck on this part of the east coast either. Wal-Mart has also been just as dry.....

Out here in the Hinterlands of Tacoma, Washington we have been getting the new pony power 5 car packs for aboutr a month now and the VW's are also out. These VW's look like an old release. Apparently TRU is clearing out the warehouse. Target is not carring JL anymore around here and Kmart has Clue.
Wally world is one I couldn't tell you about. I haven't been there in a while.

The local Wal-Mart and Target have about 500 Clue cars between them, and there has been nothing else for a while. Same at TRU. Worse yet, the Hobby Lobby reduced its peg space for JL by about 60% a couple of weeks ago. Don't know why -- anybody else seeing this?

I believe the dry spell is due to RC2 moving everything to there warehouse. I havent had anything new for the last month until this week, now I am over my head in little cars and so far behind I should not be here but man I needed a break. Lets see Classic Gold 24, Chevy Thunder, Universal Monsters, Coke Polar Bears / Santa, Muscle Cars IV release 6, and CARS release 9 with the 10th Anniversary 1971 Plymouth Duster. :thumbsup:

OH YEA! THANKS ROB, You know why. :wave:

Sounds like the floodgates will be opening soon. It's about time!

Rose & I did find...

a Pony Power box set with '73 Red Mustang WL at the TRU about 2 miles from Midway Airport in Chicago, on the way home from the fest Monday morning!

Other than that......ZILCH, NADA!!!!

universal monsters and polar bear/santa have been showing up in the stores this week in greater cin/n-ky.

 

[Al Markin]

Target on Long Island (New York) Has Pez, and Grateful Dead releases. other than that, Just ToysRus Pony packs. Saving money, guess new stock will arrive sooner or later?

It's a bit better in the midwest. Here in Michigan, our own superstore chain, Meijers, is through the Street Freaks 9 [13 on the back of the card, BWF Nash], Mustangs, Mopar or No Car, Grateful Dead, CG 24 Part 2 [Hurst Olds], and Universal Monsters. As usual, all the Monsters cars are still here except for the VW's.

 

[BOBB36]

Who needs Meijers when you have Bobb36 in Michigan.

Street Freaks 10 just came thru the door at 5:50 PM OH BOY my fingers are numb. :tongue:

Last weekend, Advanced Auto had 7, WalMart had the same 12 as the prior weekend. Although I did pick up the PIP Honda and I'm a muscle car man. The guy at Auto Zone laughed at me, I thought they carried them? Waiting on the floodgates.

2004 has been a terrible year for RC products up here in Canada and I haven't seen diddly since the takeover. I sure hope it gets better.

In my HL they did the same thing cut the usual space by 50%, but they took out all the old stuff and moved it to a second location and had it all marked down half-off or so. It was all stuff like Thunderbirds, Willys gassers II, and so on, nothing too interesting for me. You may want to scope around your local HL in some different spots however:thumbsup:

I have ask 2 different target store managers in the St. Louis area and they have told me that they would not be carring JL's anymore. I don't know if it true but that is what I've been told. They have no space on thier x-mas layouts for JL's.
