Happy New Year ALL! May 2010 be the best year ever! If you’re planning on a big party and need some more adult beverages – here’s a nice rebate coupon – some states not eligible … PDF Link – http://www.takefiveaday.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/Holidays.pdf But remember not to overdo it! Be sure and download a TAXI APP for your […]

Saw this on the shelf at a Target nearby – maybe the person who returned this in Northern Cal might think twice next time. And right behind it, I’m presuming this is the same idiot’s handiwork … Now, of course – this is theft – you have basically vandalized store merchandise and made an illegal […]

I think this encompasses all the releases and re-releases … It looks like Team Lightning-Rust Eze, & Team Leak Less only have one release under one packaging and series. I would presume Team Rust-eze will be re-released but so far, only in Race O Rama. (Octane Gain Team hauler just came out so we know […]

How can you choose which one is the best Lightning McQueen Lenticular of 2009 … There are 5 to pick from … 5? Yep … The first lenticular release – looks pretty much like the “normal” (Classic) Lightning McQueen other than the eyes. Essentially the same mold as nearly all of the 2006-2009 releases (and […]
