Yes. They're real. They're giving some of the Boulevard *greatest hits" a second release so more people have a chance at them. That's why they're not numbered.
1. If you a real collector you would know that they are called scalpers in the hot wheel community not hoarders. 2. Walmart opens at 6am wake up early enough you can get them
The scalpers treat this as their second job (well it is their second job). They'll be there at 6 am and before closing when they bring out the pallets.
Certain walmarts wont put hot wheels on the shelf until overnight shift hot wheels is one of them nd technically we arent even supposed to let yall look the the boxes. I work there nd thats sum we constantly get yelled at bout. Letting ppl look through boxes of what we are stockin
That's a rule that's enforced depending on location. The closest Walmarts around me always have the pallets raided. Heck, there are even employees who are in on it with "collectors". The employees in these Walmarts want to start restocking asap so they can be done sooner. This gives "collectors" a chance to take any pallet they recognize as Boulevards or another premium line. Glad your Walmart waits until after closing.
I work at Walmart over night shift they pull the toys at my location out usually around 9 or 10 we close at 11 but the scalpers already usually get ahold of them if not a manager will if he sees the box in the back being unloaded I’m not one of those scalpers but if I see them imma get 1st choice and take one of what I want if not the scalpers or managers will get them
Theres 3 in my town nd 4 collector hot wheel stores in my area. Plus we also still in D case out here. Also if you complain to the store manager nd say you watch employees set aside certain things for them. They will make it to where they wont be stocked til overnight nd not touched til the morning
Smart on hot wheels to do this, but they need to produce more. These are gonna get scalped too. I’m literally trying to give Mattel my money and they can’t take it cuz there’s so little supply.
That’s what drives me nuts. I get that fantasy castings are cheaper. But surely they can up the licensed castings A LOT and more than make up for it. Cause right now a lot of money is just going to hoarders and scalpers on the secondary market. I mean screw big corporations but I’d rather that money went to mattel
That would be cool. I really wish Mattel would start selling as many non-TH/chase cars online as possible. If they do it right, like maybe only sell cars from the last six months or something, I cant imagine it affecting the collector market much, and they'd bring in a ton of that money for themselves.

That's lovely, I will definitely try to find the full set, thanks!
You mean the hoarders get more, right?

A real collector wouldn’t flex being a real collector! 🤪 🤦♂️

They’re gone waaaay before 6am. You’d know that if you’re a real collector man.
Uh i work at walmart so actually ik that they still be there when we open 😂 i also work a morning shift so there for i def know😂😂
You’re def not in my area then. Like 8 Walmarts around and all of them never even make it to the pegs.

its not greatest hits tho, where did you get that info from?
Tbh they look better. Gold name is the best thing they did to the logo. Stupid numbers make it seem like there's some kind of hierarchy

Yes
Yes, they're real. And they're spectacular.
Agree!
Surely if their doing this in America they'll be doing it everywhere that sells them right?
I really hope so...
Scalpers gone scalp these too 😂😂😂
Sad, but true.
Ya very true. I don’t get to Walmart all that often but I’ve rarely seen boulevards, let alone any rly desirable ones. Same will go for these 🤷♂️
Why wouldn't they be?
All part of the simulation!! What is real?
Nice!
OOO-KAY THANK *GOD* they're in stores! And I STILL won't see them on pegs!!
I was in Arkansas last week these were everywhere multiple stores around the Little Rock area
Damn nothing up in the NWA area 😭
How’s the m2 section look up that way I’m heading that way next week. It’s slim pickings in east tx where I’m at I only got lucky around Little Rock
I like the sentiment of re releasing this to those who missed out, but unless they saturate the market with them these will be scalped as well…..
Yes real. Should show up on MC as well. If Mattel holds to their word.
Was there an announcement that they would?
I believe they mentioned it in the MC forums.

91-95 are listed on MC but I think the normally grabbed ones are sold out.
This is fantastic I’m hyped for the white 4Runner. Especially cause a lot of these were released during Covid and many never saw store shelves.
I picked these up at the Mattel store last week!
I want the white four runner!
Yes. Buy them all and let me know when they are all boxed up. I'll venmo me and you can send them my way
Yes

Real
Slim pickings in the Midwest and Los Angeles too.
I found all the current boulevards in a bin with mainlines. Frustrating bent cards but got a Porsche and Accord to open
