    You're sure it was the Minicon 10-pack and not the 12-pack? Because the 12-pack is a K-Mart exclusive and has been out for some time.

    This kinda stuff isn't mass-release, though. Not for a one-time product like this.

    Uh... what?

    It's a mass release to all the low budget retail chains right? What do you mean by "one-time" product? These are no different than the 12-pack release except for the fact they aren't Kmart exclusive.

    My guess is this set is a "Market Six" exclusive, like the uld Universe "Battle in a Box" two-packs. Those were carried by Kohl's, Meijer, Menards and ShopKo, and later turned up at Big Lots too.

    And Kmart carried the BIABs too, so it fits with the release of this Mini-Con set just fine.

    Oh, I didn't know K-mart carried those BIABs back in the day. Okay, that makes sense, then.

    Yeah, they didn't last long, and then were promptly replaced by the Kmart-exclusive Crystal Widow/Oil Slick set. Ugh, hated that set.

    It's still news. Hopefully one of the mods will notice this thread and front-page it.
