    Well, I got 15 of the yellow/orange ones a while back, but yesterday I found 6 blue ones! Woo!! (y)

    As far as the numbers go, I actually found two different packages/numbers for the yellow car. Large cardboard backing is 33 of 44 (for both yellow and blue) and the small backing one is 38 of 52. See pics. Has anyone else found the small cardboard backing style?

    So I went back to that Wal-Mart, two days after I saw them.... they were all gone. I really didn't think they would all go that quick, someone must have bought them all... next time I'll buy them all and ask later. I don't know why I didn't. Sorry guys.

    The Blue Ones are in Maryland as well. Went to Wally World today and one was right in the front which surprised me as I have not even seen any Grabber Orange ones at all. It was easy to peer thru the blisters and see another 33 (not 38) to pick up.

    I always get at least 2 (if available, or lucky) and open one for display and leave the other sealed. I was really surprised to see any since the east coast is the last place to get any. Now, I want a Grabber Green one to match my car.

    I have not found any single pack Mav's, but I did find 1 blue Mav in a ten pack.
    Maybe I should paint my real Mav blue to match.
