I saw this post this morning before I left the house so I stopped by the
Wal-Mart near where I live (Cary, NC). No Shell sets here. $15 for the MT
Ferrari is a bargain, I would buy as many as I could find at that price.
Wal-Mart gets some odd stuff in from time to time. About a year ago
Wal-Mart had tons of 6180 (http://guide.lugnet.com/set/6180) sets for $15.
