    OK my "TAMPOS" is shifted and it's irritating me to say the least :huh: there I said it...

    Thanx for the correction, I learned something today.

    That was what I was thinking when I saw that there were a couple of alternate colors ... in a 10 pack, the one car in the upper right is a special color car.

    I found a 10 pack yesterday with a standard yellow Mav mixed in there ... and actually had the self-control not to buy it. ...
    if it had a blue Mav in that upper right position, though, I don't think I would have had any free will ... :thumbs2:

    Keep in mind that the yellow ones are going to get a bit easier to find very soon. I have hit the same Target stores once a week for the last three weeks, and it doesn't look like any of them have replenished the shelves at all since I found two Mavs. Looking thin ... which only means that they will be stuffing the pegs again, soon.

    Blue is not a variation, it's a re-color. Soon to be at your local big box store.
