19 stores, only 3 had any I wanted.
I have not checked dollar tree or dollar general. Usually they have 1 or 2 year old stock.
eBay would be much easier.

There's a Kroger exclusive version of that Wagoneer out that has a teal top. And I found out that there's an all-black variant of it as well that I haven't found.
I'm also getting very frustrated that I have never found any of the recent Moving Parts Matchbox, the J10, the FC or the new grey Scrambler.

I'm on a diecast Jeep group on FB that's run by a guy that does a ton of custom HotWheels builds. He messaged me last night saying that he thinks he's going to take a shot at doing my Postal, possibly with the camp trailer as it was set up for SEMA 2018 
I'm geeked out of my mind at the idea of seeing it done, he does great work and I sent him a couple of threads here and some other reference photos.
The group just did a build competition based on the most recent Scrambler casting too. Here's what got entered:

Picked up my Scrambler from Fat Bobs Garage. Guy there keeps a drawer of hot wheels for the kids. He had seen my Scrambler and decided to give me the Scrambler that was in the drawer, he said that he wanted it to go to “the scrambler owner since a kid probably wouldn’t appreciate it like I would”. He might be right. LOL.

I was at aTarget and noticed one of the Scramblers and one of the FC trucks in the display along the check out line for a cashier. Looked around a little more and they were the only ones in the store. Decided to stop by Walmart and JACKPOT! They had a HUGE display of hanging cars, like 10 feet tall, and 2 huge bins of cars. I found 36 more before I had to stop looking and get going.
Also found a few Matchbox Gladiators and few more of the Commandos.
