Can’t wait to find these.
The hasbro box in a mattel box doesn’t surprise me. Afterall Mattel owns Hasbro.
Found these at Target (Australia – No relation to the US stores). Got Marlon and Fillmore with the organic tanks. Very nice.
Got, Boost, Marlon, Ron and the Yeti. Only Walmart near Worcester Ma has them in but someone got to the fillmore before me and took nothing else or at least that is what it seemed like.
(MET: Gee, it almost seems as if the guy who opened the box grabbed it – but that’s just crazy).
Anyone know the case assortment? All the stores I’ve been to have plenty of Vern, Snot Rod, and Chuki. Not sure what case those are from.
Kohls seems to be pulling out of the Cars line. One just had a few haulers left and the one I went to today just had 3 Car Toons cars…I was tempted to get Buck the Tooth Vendor but not for $9.99. I wonder why they don’t sell many..geez Kohls…
(MET: Ass’t Info HERE – Doesn’t anyone use the search? 🙂 ).
Kohl’s is extremely seasonal regarding toys. They’ll start rolling in as Fall nears and the Christmas reset begins.
Our Kohl’s stores go from virtually nothing to an entire toy section in a matter of days once the Christmas stock arrives.
Regarding Kohl’s pricing…..ALWAYS wait for their next sale(if they’re not on sale), typically 40 to 50 percent off, and Kohl’s Charge discounts can add up to another 10/15/30 percent off using their mailer coupons.
WM stores are supposed be starting their Christmas reset in August, so don’t be surprised if there’s a big dry spell in their stores until that begins.
Met – Are they releasing Milton Calypeer with crazy eyes? I thought I caught an ebay posting for it…
(MET: It’s on the list – for what that’s worth …).
Someone mentioned it on the Trade forums. I’m looking for him as well but will wait and get him in the newest batch.
Does any one know when they release new cars. Is there a “schedule” by chance?
Just got Fillmore with gas cans, but after getting home, there are no gas cans, and the package hasnt been opened, guess they left them out oh well
I found them at TRU in northwest Indiana Friday afternoon… Haven’t seen them anywhere else…
Any word about the next chase car? I think it will be Mater with Oil Can. What do you think? I may buy several lenticulars just for an accessory, but other than that, I’m not buying any.
I’m gonna guess that Mattel and Hasbro may use the same factory for some toys. I know in the bicycle business, many brands don’t own the factories; they contract the work out.
Scored these babies at WM (in Canada) this morning.
“Minteresting”? New word! Must mean case M? 😕
haven’t seen these yet
just case L’s at Target and case K’s at Walmart. I think Walmart will not stop ordering until they have an entire aisle of Lenticulars.
Yeah I was surprised to see this case at the big 3 already. I missed them at a few, but was able to get one of each of the new cars. I passed on PCFHH and Yeti, but picked up a Marlon, chase Fillmore, and Boost.
Marlon with regular eyes has been making the rounds with the HK sellers on Ebay so I am guessing we will see him very soon as final lap car or box set.
Cool cant wait for the Final Lap versions if any
me too
ditto!!
TRU was the first store to get these in my city.
