    Fresh out of Mavericks
    Our Walmarts had them for a couple years, but recently took them all off the shelves. I bought all I could and have stacks of them in the garage...for sale, of course. Mostly yellow and white.

    NOT for Choco...:16suspect

    I think Wal Mart has stopped selling them. Toys R Us is selling all sizes now.

    1/24th, the 1/64ths were still called fresh insted of sweet cherries... the comets are pretty cool. i was also tempted to but the black vega (i freaking hate them with a passion) they had, it had flames on it and sidepipes, hood pins and fat tires so i could chop it up and build a neater comet... i cant wait for the mavs....

    they also had the american grafiti cars in newer boxes.. no mavericks or comets though:(
