TRU has a display with some of the 2013 trucks on it as well as play sets. Khols had some older trucks for 6.99...Nothing that I wanted to get though since I was on a figure run.

Found Wolvie, another Black Stallion (the other three I have are Spectraflame, World Finals 2011, and...one has a sponsor on the side), and a Travel Treads Hauler...which came with ANOTHER Digger (bringing the total to 23). It's a pretty neat set, but it'd be better if they released it with other trucks (the hauler has green flames on it).
I've seen the Tour Favorites sets at a clothing outlet store named Goodys...don't know if that's a national thing. The only trucks I remember being in the set I got are Max-D and Spider-Man (the truck had just been released at the time and 'twas the first instance of seeing it in stores).

Yeah, I got a couple of the Tour Favorites sets... We have a chain of department stores here in the northwest called Fred Meyer (the west-coast partner of the Kroger store chain). Last weekend, they were having a buy-one-get-one-1/2-off sale on all Hot Wheels, so I took advantage. I got:
Tour Favorites 1: Boneshaker, Iron Man, Monster Mutt Rottweiler & Mechanical Mischief
and Tour Favorites 2: Spider-Man, Airborne Ranger, Bulldozer & Shocker
both for $24 + tax.
I love Fred Meyer. This week they have all of their 1:24 scale Monster Jam trucks for $5 each. Geez, as if I haven't dropped enough on the 1:64 scale trucks! I've picked up Monster Mutt Rottweiler, the Lucas Oil Crusader, Iron Man, King Krunch, Michigan Ice Monster, M2D Camo Thunder & the Hot Wheels Firestorm!
EDIT: I also got 1:64 Wolverine & Samson from TRU's buy-1-get-1-40% off sale.

Picked up muddy Felon (it'll do for now) and purple King Krunch. Either I got a bad batch, or the printing on the trucks has gotten pretty damn terrible lately, I can't read a thing on Felon.

I can't justify purchasing the first one online for twenty bucks or whatever, considering it hung on the pegs for MONTHS and I never got around to purchasing it. My loss, I guess. I'm sure they'll make more if Mark Schroeder continues to do freestyle exhibitions at certain shows.

Cap looks nice. Hopefully my store gets either this or the single of it soon.
I'd love to help ya, Nivro, but the only two trucks you have that I haven't acquired are Wrecking Crew and Hurricane Force...which I can live without. Hopefully someone here can take them off of your hands!

I found Cappy! The rest of the set it's in is meh. A half a block over, I found a Metal Mullisha at the aformentioned clothing store, so my day wasn't a total loss.
