Dollar Tree up to batch G; in my area, anyway

Finally found the white Alfa*, and saw the first appearance of the red Miata (the previous local stocks of Batch F seemed to be missing the Miata). (* When Batch G first appeared here, at Fred Meyer--a Kroger property--it was in the Power Grabs boxes and the Alfa in those boxes turned out to be the 2015 charcoal version.)

Anyway, if you've not found batch G anywhere, and you are near a Dollar Tree store, it might be worth a trip.

What I got yesterday (the Alfa and hardnoze and Miata) with some of batch H I found in Albuquerque last month on right.

I found the Yellow Submarine in a small central-Utah town's Walmart back in July. Haven't seen any locally since. Over at the Lamley blog (http://www.lamleygroup.com/2016/08/hot-wheels-n-case-shippers-are-hitting.html) there's an article this week about Walgreen's getting HW shippers in stock, that include the Submarine. I'm planning on checking a couple Walgreen's today to see if I can find any. (I visited a Walgreen's yesterday, before I knew Lamley had written about the shippers, and saw nothing of interest in the store.)

Yes, I have just returned from a holiday in Los Angeles and can confirm that I found similar models at Dollar Tree, which has helped me fill some of my gaps in my collection.

:) Just found most of those Matchbox models at a Wal Mart in Bismarck last night. It was a pleasant surprise!
