Anyone got a pic of the box?  None of my local Walgreen's say they have them,
but they just might not know what they're looking for.

I'm having problems finding them here in Southeastern PA.

I have hit two 24 hour Walgreens repeatedly near me with no luck.

I know what the 4562 box looks like, but where in the store are the sets
usually placed? Toy aisle? Seasonal? Up high? Down low?

Hey guys,
I posted a pic of the box!  Check it out here:

www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Merthyn/4562/4562box.jpg

I've seen them in aisles and on the very top of the display shelves.  They
usually have then standing up in a cardboard display tray with the front of the
box facing forward.  There are six to a display tray and often stacked three or
four high by trays.  A couple of times I found them way up high, out of reach,
and thought that was the only place they had them, but when I looked around, I
discovered they were also on display somewhere else.
I hope that helps!
regards,
Tom

Tom, Most of the stores I have hit, they have been up high--- way up on the top shelf. And at 2 of them, they were set up on the end cap with the other 3/$11.98 toys. Most of the people at the stores have been more than willing to go look for them (...) (20 years ago, 3-Nov-04, to lugnet.market.shopping)
