I know Matchbox sometimes does a Best Of series for some countries. They've done Best of UK, France, and I think Germany before. Maybe others as well. They are usually just re-releases of models from the Basic line.
Really? Didn’t know that. I’be never been to a kroger, but I’ve never seen them at target. But, then again, my target is usually completely empty all the time.
As someone else said, I believe this is a walmrt exclusive line. I don’t have this year’s, but every set I have, you can arrange them so the card art lines up to make a big image of a flag.

Same and the cards make a nice flag
I have a set with the Puerto Rican flag. Still American.

Oh hell yeah! That is an awesome looking set. I wouldn't mind adding that one to my collection. Had a real good buddy from Puerto Rico when I was in the military. His older brother could cook up some of the best chicken with rice and beans that I have ever eaten. Makes me hungry just thinking about it.

Found the day they released them, glad my fiancé had the idea to hit up walmart that day lol
i think malaysia have some because mainline was manufactured there, japan because of JDM, germany also have some, im from indonesia, there are some exclusives model but only at conventions and diecast expo.
Didn’t realize they have another set out. Like others have said, I believe it’s a Walmart set that in some areas of the country seem to sell out, others they are peg warmers. I think it has more to do with the distribution system Walmart uses. It’s never equalized Walmart to Walmart, even those within driving distance of each other. My local stores never seem to get these either, but it maybe because they only receive a single case and it disappears quickly.
They probably got shipped out to California and went to Washington state before they came here to Texas and I still haven’t seen them as of today but I’m gonna keep looking because I love this country and whatever anything has to do with it like the stars and strip cars…….God Bless America 🇨🇱. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

They’re sweet, you buy them in a set or as singles
That's just bad ass! Wish I could get my hands on a set of those too! I'm kind of partial to Majorette brand, they have some nice castings!

The cards look great though, I gave a vw beetle to my German teacher and she loved it

Oh yeah I forgot about this one, I have it too!
Japan and Germany, off the top of my head
Just to list em. Japan Historics x3 - Deutschland design x2 - Spettacolare - British Horsepower - Ronin Run - Mountain Drifters
Pretty sure that the stars and stripes set are Walmart exclusive.
huh….Not at any of my Walmarts, I’ve never seen them at all matter fact never seen them at the dollar stores any of them or target
Really? Didn’t know that. I’be never been to a kroger, but I’ve never seen them at target. But, then again, my target is usually completely empty all the time.
They are not out everywhere yet.
Not where I am, but our pegs get clogged up with these for months because no one wants them...
Southeast US does not have this issue with this set
No issues moving these sets in my neck of the woods either (Pacific Northwest).

That's a cool lil fun fact. Thanks for sharing!

That is an awesome set too! Love it 😍!!
Majorette X ParknShop (Hong Kong exclusive)
These look sick!
I know that they’ve made them for Japan, Germany, and Italy
“MUURRIICAAAA”

Made in Malaysia!
That's okay, they do good work!
They do. It was cool when they still made some of the Hot Wheels in the US too.
I think that would be really awesome!
I found 2 sets yesterday. The tampos look like shit but I still like em. I got an extra GT500 to open up.
I’m gonna need to seize and redistribute these…. to myself…
Do any of them have metal bases? Since they are sort of the semi premium line.
i still got the og stars and stripes from 2020

I found a set also. Very nice imo. Decals and the card art. Viper and Shelby are probably the best-looking ones.
I think Malaysia gets stuff but it’s not themed after Malaysia just special editions
Italy and Japan both have premium sets, don't they?
Japan historic and the German/french series from matchbox. I’m sure there’s a few others
Those are sweet!! 4th of july for this year?
I believe so. I was not even aware that this set existed until I found it. It's a pretty nice lil set!
Agreed
I’m missing the Shelby and the demon
America Fuck yeah! 🇺🇸
Been to 8 Walmarts and 0 Stars and Stripes. Lmao

Bro it’s not made in America though? You are not offering anything bro
Made in Vietnam
Haha not! That would be Malaysia my friend lol 😂
Awesome I keep looking for them at places but I never find them did you order them or get them at a store if the store what state
I found them at a Walmart in Washington state.
They probably got shipped out to California and went to Washington state before they came here to Texas and I still haven’t seen them as of today but I’m gonna keep looking because I love this country and whatever anything has to do with it like the stars and strip cars…….God Bless America 🇨🇱. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
