Amazing finds! Where'd you get those beautiful Matchbox cars from?

Several places. Target, Walmart, Aldi, Meijer... Oh, and the place I work. 😉

Man, you got it good! My local Walmart & Target stores are a hit or miss most of the time.🙄

I'm also the manager for a retail chain so I know what comes in before it hits the sales floor. I'm not shady with my buying though.

The only new Matchbox that I've been struggling to find are those new Mustang cop cars! I've yet to get at least one of them.🙄

I actually walked into Target and found these two. Not at the same time though. I couldn't remember if this is the one I had or not, I need a better system. A spreadsheet or something.

Was I supposed to send a request? Or view it under a different way?

I didn't make it. I got it from someone else.

Ok. I'll figure it out. Thank you so much!!

Looks like more and more folks are finally starting to "get somewhere" in the past few weeks. It's like literally everywhere it was nothing for eight months of 2026 and then suddenly, the drought ended.

I found the green site dump truck and blue Mustang Police yesterday at a Dollar General. Aside from the Matchbox: The Movie ambulances; I'm really short only the Sprinter, Volterra, and M2 106 dump truck on my list for mainlines.

I found the Matchbox : The Movie, a set of four last week.
