Martin Arriola:
Thank you for my wife and I’s copies of the SDCC LSMcQ signed at 2008 SDCC.
and thanks for signing our Mattel Speedway of the South Sets when I visited you in March. Your a class act.
keep up the great work bud.
Quick update…
The bidding ends Sunday evening at 8 pm… so if you want to bid, get it in before then! Remember if you’re going away for the holiday weekend, to put your bid in before you leave!
Also, Martin has talked to me some about different things to help out the Cars Cares program, and he has been a HUGE supporter behind the scenes, and I want to thank him again for stepping up.
Wait till you guys see what’s coming up with Cars Cares… lot’s of good stuff!
Indykit aka Kevin,
I am toying around with the idea of doing a kinda Fine Art piece of something Disney/Pixar Cars and auctioning that off as well?
However, I’m not sure if anyone would even want it or if it would raise any money at all………… guess I could always buy it back myself 🙂
Go Mattel/Disney/Pixar Cars.
Whaddaya mean no one would want it????!!!!!!!!
Thanks again to Met and everyone here at TFAD for the support! This piece, out of all the promo Cars autographed by Mr. Arriola, is my favorite. I love how it looks, with the mirrored sticker, Cars Cares logo, and his autograph in gold all on display behind a great looking Car.
Also, I have set up Cars Cares on Twitter, where you can follow the program, and get faster updates on auctions and such, sent right to your cell phone. Here is the link to Cars Cares on Twitter:

Thanks again, good luck, and Happy Bidding!!!
This is really a great idea 🙂
I just realized a year ago today we were frantically buying the Speedway of the South set and in one month we’ll be at KM Day II!
Thanks Met
Nice. But why do you Yanks put the date back to front? I thought Martin had discovered Time Travel and signed this July 2009 but then realised that the date is just back to front.
Today is May 20th, so I write it 5/20/9….just the way we say it I guess….look over on the UP advertisement, it say May 29, not 29 May…. but I see it both ways all the time, and sometimes year first.
When I save stuff on the computer, I do it this way: 20090520 — that way, when you “alphabetize” it, it goes in the correct date order.
Same here. Great minds think alike!
Absolutely!!!
…21MAY09…
Sorry PD I was just being a SA. We use dd/mm/yy as standard and I always get confused with the other version.
Hey at least I never wrote “First” (which I detest, not as much as Mattel’s International Division but detest all the same)
