    Seems obvious this was purchased at retail by someone who doesn't want to keep it, but realizes it's value and rarity.

    If that's the case let me go to K-Mart and get some Clearance Silverstreaks and a can of Krylon, I can clean up!

    Is this the first shot of the bottom of Ricochet's box? I don't remember seeing it before. (I know we saw Rollbar's.)

    I think I can make out his quote. To me, it looks like: "If I can't catch you, my missile [or 'missiles'] will."

    Which begs the question: "Where's his missile launcher?" :peoples:

    Yeah, the next assortment (Rollbar, Ricochet, Skids, Sunny) isn't supposed to be out till March according to the list I have. Then again, Downshift and CD Hotshot arent supposed to be out till March either and I think they're starting to surface if I remember right.

    From my understanding, the newest Alternator case is due out in February. The only Alternator release in March is Prime.

    I think those were the original dates but places like Entertainment Earth have pushed Ricochet/Rollbar back to March and Prime to April. Then again, it seems like Walmart and Target have been getting their Alternatores before places like BBTS and EE.

    I thought the published dates were usually 'saturation' dates. If so, seeing them pop up now shouldn't be that much of a stretch.

    No picture of the receipt, but he did send more images of both so we could see the boxes better.
