Last time I checked, it was a "slow" red one that held the fastest standing 1/2mi record.

They still make red ones?

2 weeks checking my local walmart. Finally yesterday front of the shelf I found 2 one to open one to keep safe in the box. Now to find one more for the grand kids to play with.

General Dollar is running a sale on Match Box....Buy one get one... There price is $1.00 so that make them $.50 … If your buy a bunch only ring up 20 at a time.... The computer will only discount in groups of 20 or less. (Indiana that $10.70 for 20 with the tax)

Yeah, the first one on Ebay went for $25. I'll just keep checking my Wally World, Target, etc. Checked again this am (buying oil for oil changes). Selection had changed since last week, but still no Slingshot. And I checked - you can't special order a particular vehicle.

FOUND THEM! A LOT OF THEM! (Ok, maybe I went a little crazy.)
That being said, they just showed up in all the Walmarts. I actually checked this exact Walmart yesterday and there were none. But it looks like all the Walmarts stocked overnight because I found them at multiple Wally Worlds. (I'll post a thread on my adventure in a little bit.)
So, if you're looking, get to Wally World before Friday. They should have them. If not at your local WM, check another. I found them in about 2/3rds of the WMs I checked.
I initially wanted to get some for local friends. But maybe I went a leeetulll overboard. If you want one, PM me. I'll figure out what shipping costs and if you cover that, they're yours.

That's basically my plan. A couple of my closer SS friends are gonna get one for sure. The rest, well, PM me and cover shipping and it's yours.

Ive now got six, found them at two Wally Worlds (of course out of town - none in my town Wally World yet)

I found one at my local Wally World. I just opened it up, so I could play with it for a minute. .

I was out and about today at the local Target Store and was able to pick up a red one that was stuck way in the back on the end of a display hook. I had to move about five or six of the other type of Matchbox cars out of the way to find the only Slingshot. Still going for 99 cents.
Just to press my luck, I stopped off at a second Target Store and found two more! I then went out and bought some scratch off lottery tickets. No winners, but two out of three ain't bad.

I've struck out every place I've been....
If I don't get any in a week or two, would anyone be willing to sell me a couple? There for my son... okay, and one for the old man too!

Most of the time the 'matchbox' items are on 'hangers' but they also are packaged in small boxes, so look for some sitting on the shelf.

Doc - you have a million Wally Worlds around your area - I only striped the ones out of the Lowell store location lol
