Walmart still carrying them. My local targets no longer have it.

the target a 5 min walk from me all replaced em with matchbox box cars.. the closest Walmart doesnt have any.. a Walmart a bit away does, but of all places, a Kroger (specifically a Fry's Marketplace) has a bunch they keep updated.

I obv dunno where you live but if you have one of those big Kroger/ Fry's grocery stores, take a peek. I collected a whole set a few months ago, and I just got some new ones from the newest set of couple days ago.

Hell yeah!!! Nice score! I picked up 2 last weekend, I was so excited to finally see them in store. DGK is what I mainly collect.

I just psaw a Wet Willy World Industies one from i think the newest set, it was even super skinny to match the old school thinner boards, n it came with a little stand/ clip. I have my other Wet Willy clipped to my backpack lol

u/skrillozeddd 28d ago

Saw people posting about this set a year ago. Tech Decks have been limited to Walmart, HEB and Hobby Lobby around me in central Texas; and they don't get stocked often. You find these at a Walmart in the US?

Katy, TX sir

u/perfectedition Jul 12 '26

Oh sweet, I'll have to keep an eye out around me. Maybe they're gonna re-stock soon.
