I would be glad to check for you here in the Dallas area ,there is a Walmart on every corner, but I don't shop there any longer. Like many, I have numerous reasons to question their business practices. :puke:

Looked for one at wal-mart tonight and they didn't have any.  You would think that since wal-mart is based here in Arkansas they would be here first, but NOT!  I'll keep my eyes open.  :thumbsup:

Sweet looking car!

I wonder how much they sell for?

I wonder if the castings are similar to the Johnny Lightnings.  They have a real nice '70 Challenger out recently.  The '70 Cuda was so so, the doors don't open either.
1972 Dodge Challenger Rallye 340, AT, Code TB3=Super Blue, SBD=8/17/1971.  Yes, a Rallye without the fender louvers from the factory because of the body side molding option.

I saw that in my Walmart, didn't buy it though because I already have so much 1/18 cars and such.  I'll sto pback in and see if it is still there.  If so I'll pick it up.

Someone posted on ebay.. it's a limited edition.. only 2 per walmart x 100 stores. Now I'm not sure if this is strictly a walmart deal from Franklin ??   :dunno:
