What's covered up on the card? I'm sure it's a great find for ya buddy, but them white tires look horrible... I just don't go for those chase cars of any kind, unless it's a Green Machine or an Ultra Red with just the bodies in color... No green wheels or red tires or anything else that makes the cars look ugly... Congrats on your find though Marty !!! ![]() A little humor for ya from Taz...LOL Edited by Stangfreak, Dec 30 2017, 12:12 PM.

It looks like the label denoting the car as a Walmart exclusive is covered up. I'm guessing they had extras and shipped them to other stores. I have a small number of AW Ultra Reds, and JL WLs, all found at local stores for retail prices. Of the White Lightnings, only the IH pickup is all that's still out, as I didn't pick up the regular version when they were available at Tractor Supply as a part of the Collect and Play assortment. Most of the Ultra Reds are still out, I quite like the color. Edited by cody6268, Dec 30 2017, 12:47 PM.

The Walmart label is covered because it was a packaging mistake. There was one or two cars which were modified from the regular release, so that Walmart could have an exclusive, but all of the packages for the entire release got the label, instead of just the cars that were legitimately exclusive variations. There was an Olds Cutlass that had something exclusive about it, but the Camaro has no variation between the regular retail release and the set that went to Walmart. |

I don't think it was a packaging mistake. There was only one Walmart exclusive model in this series (an Oldsmobile 442 with a white interior instead of black). On all the ones I saw (which was a lot as they hit hard here), the 442 did not have the sticker and the other 5 did. |

I meant them all being printed with the "Walmart exclusive" was a mistake. The Olds package was the only one that should have been printed that way. And they fixed the mistake after the fact by applying the red sticker to the others, which were NOT exclusive....except on Stangfreak's example, which escaped being stickered. |

Glad you were able to find a chase car for your collection. Sadly I think I can count on one hand the number of JL models I have actually seen on the pegs of area Wal-Mart stores. |
