Ghost Hawk & Sting Raider found at Retail today + a hunt story...

FirstOne · 12-01-2008, 03:47 PM

I don't know if anyone has found and posted this yet. But today I went to a Walmart that usually has nothing and I found a Sting Raider and Ghost Hawk on the shelf! I almost crapped in my pants! When I went to a check out, both vehicles came up as "item not found," which means they weren't even entered in to the system yet. I wasn't expecting to find these yet.

I also went to a Kmart. They had a endcap with vehicles, 12" figures, and Wave 1 DVD Battle Packs. Sitting on the endcap was a Sharc w/Deep Six, but the Sharc & Deep Six were swapped out with a Night Spector & Stalker!

Oh, and Hot Wheels collectors are funny. I was waiting at the doors for Target to open up at 8am. I saw a Hot Wheels collector standing by the door who is waiting there everytime I come at 8am. This time he had his buddy with him. As soon as the doors opened I started heading towards the toy section and so did they. I was ahead of them, but as soon as they figured out I was going the same way, they started power walking to get ahead of me, and almost knocked me over. I almost wanted to tell them I'm not after there stupid Hot Wheels. Plus I forgot to mention that they were white trash...
