    Did you happen to look at the UPC code for the 1:24 Pinto?
    They would be the same if it came in a Maverick model (I think). I could see if my Walmart toy dept. lady could order some for me. Do we know for sure if they (Maverick 1:24) are out there? Either way, it's worth a try to order some and see.

    News

    I was at Wal-Fart today, and found out who runs the toy dept. Spoke with her at length about these cars. Apparently, when I bought them, it was the same day they stocked them, so they were never given a store tage on the shelves! LOL. :clap:

    So, if I bring one back tomorrow morning, she'll run the bar code and order a couple of cases of them. :)

    So, that was encouraging, but the discouraging part was they can't request specific colors, as they are coming from china! :mad: And what they get is what they get. So, I'll do my part tomorrow, and bring one in for her, and we'll see what happens from there.

    I think they must be exclusive to Hell-Mart, cuz Toys-R-us never heard of them, and Target didn't have anything either.

    me262, watch what you order as the bar codes are the same for the maverick, pinto's and mustangs, no matter which color you have.:huh:
