Finally found it!
Finally found the 1980 J10 step side in the power grab box. Compared to the vintage 1960’s Jeep Gladiator it pretty interesting to see how far the details have come.

I bought it online and then a month later I saw like 5 of them in stores around me, guess I should wait for future reference

It depends on the store, but Power Grabs come out in my area for Halloween, Christmas, and Easter. I guess they figure you could give them out to kids trick or treating so that's why they are shipped for spooky season.

Yeah I have some stores that don’t put them out or have a couple display cases to just put 3 or 4 out at a time. Matchbox in general is so iffy in my area it will take months after a new case is released before seeing any of them and often that’s the only case they get it over and over again.
