WM exclusives

New casting? Quick!! Take it apart!
Not here. My WM employee friends said, "Whaaaaaa??????? A shadow box shipper with Johnny Lightnings?? They haven't even sent any of the small cut case boxes yet to display the current cars on the shelf."
I'll wait.

Anyone got a list of these and what features they have to make them WM exclusives?
I used to be a genius, but I found out it's a lot less work and more fun to be a redneck.

I checked last night at my hometown WM and the one 10 miles west of me today and found none of these. Wonder if these will only be available at select Wal-Marts and my local ones weren't selected. :rolleyes:
In loving memory of Grandpa Cooley.

They don't have them here yet, either. We don't even have the St. Patrick's day HWs yet. The only thing we've gotten in weeks between WM and TRU are a few of the newer M2s and the MB Lenseys.

Still nothing, but inventory is over, thankfully.

That said there was only one small pallet of freight being worked in toys when I stopped by. Of course, with my luck, they were probably put up ten minutes after I left...

Nothing at my 2 local Wally's that are on the official 1/64 list. Gotta love the deer-in-the-headlights look when asking about them, too :wacko:

Nothing on them, but as I was leaving they were still bringing pallets to the floor... The downside to not having put out a shred of freight in two days due to inventory- lots of it ready to go I'd imagine.

Found tonight! 35 of the 36 cars were still there leading me to believe a WL or LS Shelby is now in someone's hands, locally. As for me, this is the first release since Batch B of 40th that has moved me to pick up the entire release.

Based on Brad and Sean's info, the yellow states have confirmed sidekick distribution thus far:

If you're in a state that has confirmed distribution but is not highlighted, let me know and I'll update the graphic.

Me too- believe it or not had there been a WL I'd have left it hanging. I had all of $26 on me- and the 12 regulars cost $25.40 with tax and this is one of the nicest sets JL has done in the 40th/Forever 64 line. I couldn't find one car in the release I didn't like. I know JL has taken some hits lately for this line, but this particular release was outstanding.

Well, if they're smart, they'll ship at least one more restock, and give everyone a chance.
I saw Nevada on the map by Woloman, so maybe they will show up here. Haven't seen them in 3 WM's I checked so far.

Wal Mart in VA hit last weekend. I hit about 15 different stores and got 4 goodies. I don't normally collect the forever line but as mentioned this release seems a bit nicer than previous runs so I picked up a few choice regulars too.
