However, on the X platform of Elon Musk, consumers observed the fact that the retailer is keeping the famous yellow spark. The only difference would be that it will come with a slightly opaquer shade of yellow. Also, the girls will have a rounder tip and are more united in the centre.<\/p>\n<p>It was stated that Walmart will implement the changes slowly but surely.
