Wheedle how? To sell you all the sets at once? Check with the manager,
there's usually a mail-in form to obtain all the sets. Unfortunately, the
offer includes special packaging or display add-ons, and the price is
boosted.
Getting everything in one shot (at the store) depends on whether the cases
of toys have a single type of toy, or have a mix of all eight. In most
promotions, there's only one kind of toy in a case, and the store might
have one or two different cases on hand at any time.
The Lowell McD's is usually very cooperative about digging around for
spares, when we're trying to complete the collection of whatever junk
they're passing out. They won't open cases for us, but we're working on
them.
