Hey Tom!  Shoot me an email if you would like a Sal.  You know I am happy to help. Cool

Local Walmart had 2 sets of Pope/Popemobiles…left them on the pegs for other hunters.

Also had the car changer/transformers…look pretty junky since they are all plastic.  Most just have the eyes shifting/tiring extending out.  Not my cup o'tea.

Yesterday I found a sprinkling of the Pope, Pope Mobile and Mel on the Space Coast of Fla.  Only the second time I have seen any of them in the wild.  I picked up extras for those that might be in need, so check out the trade board.  🙂

Still no Mel at Wal-Mart, but I did get a Finn Quick Changer. He was the only one there and when I asked an employee if they had any more, he looked and came back, saying it was "discontinued." I thought there was some more coming.

 

Also saw a Siddely Action Agents playset. He comes with Finn– no surprise.

Not discontinued, just saw full pegs of all four changers plus Stephenson and Mack changers at two local Target stores. One store also had the new changers raceway set. (comes with the Lightning changer)

I found several one piece McQueens at a local Walmart. There are four Walmart's in my area but only one has the one piece McQueen.

Finn McMissile, RC Finn McMissile, Action Agent Finn McMissile, Submarine Finn McMissile, Squinkies Finn McMissile, Bath Blastin' Finn McMissile (or whatever you call it), Finn McMissile and Tomber, Hydrofoil Finn McMissile, Shake N Go Finn McMissile, and a bunch more styles of Finn McMissiles flood my Wal-Mart. Only there's no Quick Changers or Security Guard Finns anywhere.

 

In other news, it seems Toywiz still has Finn McMissile for a normal price of $3.99. And they have the Mater and Zen Master Pitty 2 pack on a "Big Blowout" sale for $7.99. That's normal store price! Surprised

Found all 6 Quick Changers at my Wal-Mart today. Decided to leave the Raoul but wish I left the Francesco instead. I don't see at all why all he does is tilt his front. Do Raoul's eyes Change in his QC? If it at least changes 2 different things I'll go see if he's still there. Other than that there was nothing new.

Raoul does two things. His hood "bends", exactly same as Nigel Gearsley. The "drivers" side window opens revealing a cracked window behind it. It isn't very impressive.

At our house we are hoping for a Holley Shiftwell with pop out wings and pop up tail/trunk lid.

Mater's probably my favorite. I love his silly 'Wasabi Tongue' expression. Nigel Gearsley changes his expressions really well, it's almost instant. Finn is half-broken, his wheels don't come back in all the way when you get him out of his 'Karate Wheels' look. Thus his eyes when in the normal position don't sit right. And McQueen is the same as Finn, but not half-broken. I simply hate Francesco. Laugh

Mater seems to be the hot QC, he is the only one that is somewhat scarce. 

Other than that, WM looks pretty sad, Cars-wise.

Looked through 40 Zen Master Pity two packs and found one with a mustache. So desperate to buy a car; we did.

Seems WM is stuck in a catch-22 now. Won't get new Cars 'til they sell what they have, won't sell anything 'til they get new Cars. The store near us has only 2 wide by for high pegs for singles now.

Decided to cave and bought the Raoul Quick Changer. He's OK, maybe my third or fourth fav, after Mater and Nigel and maybe Lightning. I was disappointed how his eyes didn't change and only one of his windows 'break', but he's probably the easiest car to change when you bang it on the wall Laugh

 

Also, seems like Mattel is just kind of sitting back and taking a month vacation, as no 'major' finds are being reported except the occasional RS Ramone Chase.

In my neck QC'ers are $8 @ WM and $6 @ Target. Mater is the only one I found interesting.

I have only seen them at TRU. I don't remember the price. IMHO they are only worth looking at to laugh at, how lame.
