There is a new CARS carrying case at TRU. It is most likely from the same company that made the one selling at Target & WM. Photo below is from the original post. Original post & review here. Thanks for the pics of the new case, “Jimmy D. aka clasp99” http://takefiveaday.magcloud.com/

The new lenticular 3-pack featured an interesting glimpse at the Speedway … more clues … Going from left to right … Not Vinyl Toupee … Interesting … Dinoco … Rust-Eze has a HUGE tent and TWO trailers? I guess a tent accessory isn’t much fun without a rogue elephant … or three … Leak Less […]

Matty has launched a forum … As the email warning states at the bottom, “I can’t talk to you.” Yea, Matty launched a forum that is only language moderated (there is a full page of warnings about double secret probations and bannings) but in every topic, no Mattel or Matty moderation, no answers, no acknowledge […]

Or perhaps it is not. 3) […]

It’s soon February 15th, it can only mean five things: Time to finish the groundhog stew. Time to apologize amidst the ‘silent treatment’ from the day before. (Snakes driven from Ireland Day?) Clearance chocolate at Target. Target Easter reset begins … Easter CARS! Well, I guess last year’s Target Easter CARS were too exciting? I […]

Mattel’s version of Lightning McQueen is @3.25″ inches in length and in the announced scale of 1:55. 1:55 indicates the ratio – he is 1/55th the size he would be in “real life.” Of course, technically, you want to measure scale in overall girth (aka: volume) so you really want to measure and account for […]

Bring it on Bling Bling – Bringer of Bling to the Blogger Blong of Bling, Bring it! Does that last sentence even make sense? As much as a 13-hour Super Bowl pre-game show … Today is the perfect shopping day – uncluttered … today is a red bling letter day! Of course, you need the […]
