    They just opened a Super WalMart in my area. I figured it would be my best chance to pick up something, but they had nothing.

    Motormax tells me the combo set is a Canadian Wal-Mart-only item at this time. Doesn't mean it won't come south of the border at some point, but right now, the Motormax distributor in the U.S. can't even get them. I'd sure like to have one too. You Canadian guys better grab every one you can! Happy hunting!

    Well, I went to 2 Wal Marts today, just for Ray, braved all the weirdo's and sick people, and found nothing!! I'll head over to the Super Center Wal Mart tomorrow and see what they have, I'm too lazy to go there today.

    I went to a few Walmarts today and only found the MotorMax Thunderbird on a trailer. I wonder if the Stallions were all shipped to western Canada?

    Stallion on trailer

    Hello folks ,so i had the day off today and went out with the girlfriend to as many Walmarts i could find within 200 klm of were i live ,4 in total.After asking many questions about these particular American graffiti toys ,here is what i fould out . There is three different sets available ,a red 2007 chevy 4x4 pulling the trailer with a red 65 corvette on the trailer ,also a yellow 2007 ford extended cab 4x4 pulling the trailer with a yellow 71 mustang fastback, and last but not least ,the holy grail , a black 56 ford pickup pulling trailer with a black and silver Maverick stallion on it . I was told that the maverick stallion one is very rare and is limited in its production compared to the other two models available. In a box of 20 you may get one stallion . today when checking all 4 walmarts the other two models were found at all 4 stores but No Maverick Stallion with truck and trailer. I will keep looking but i now believe it will be a got there at the right time and one was in the box of 20 of the other two models mustang and corvette. The one Dave Boyer and myself found was horse shoes up our azz luck ,right place ,right time . From what i was told the 56 pickup with the trailer and the Stallion are not a mass produced package by American Graffiti. Cheers James AKA Jimmy2gates

    Hey guys!!! I just pre-ordered two of these Stallions on the trailers with the F-100!!! Here's the website if you wanna check it out. Looks like it's in the Netherlands so I'm taking a chance but I didn't have to give any money up front. If you wanna check it out just type "Maverick" in their search box.

    I ordered a couple as well, but I've got to "confirm" the order after they send me an email. Not sure how this will work out since it's from another country, the shipping was only $6....
