Originally a promotional item primarily in the UK as far back as 2008 from a variety of sources.
Supposedly, in the US some Walmart's still carry this and recently a few Target stores are selling them in December.
I do not know if everyone's Walmart carries these or not, but just the fact that each one were 'exclusives' in other countries (like the "Batmobile" polybag) and that I actually did find a bunch of them at my Walmart and the copyright date on each polybag is from 2012, there is a good possibility you may be able to find a few of these yourself.
I just thought that I should let everyone know of my findings and hope you guys can pick up a couple for your own collection.
