The Pope is coming AND the Popemobile is separate! And the two Sumo guys, of course. These should appear in the next 2-3 Deluxe (oversized) cases. And the next two-packs … Lightning – how many rims can the dude go through? A. At least 3 so far, I guess. Finn McMissile as Security Guard & […]

Are you all set on singles #1 to #16? What’s next? Well, a bunch you’ve already seen in box sets but if you’re not a collect ’em all or you’re waiting for a box set sale – many other racers are coming as singles … #18 … yea, no one really knows his name apparently […]

Here are the last two carrying cases – coming soon in the next two-three weeks. This is the Fan Stand Display Case – I believe it holds 40 CARS – waiting on an open photo. This  is the Stow ‘N Go case with a “launcher” device and also holds 40 CARS? Not quite sure but […]

Lost in the opening day shuffle are the ChargeUps. They are plastic but they hold a charge and zoom around a track or in random direction – since they have no RC controller, they just go forward at a high rate of speed … which is not so bad … 🙂 The big Kahuna track […]

Target seems to have been ready … The play action track display is nice … Though the employees who work across from it might yank out the speakers in another 36 hours. It was nice – though at some Targets, THREE endcaps! (thanks Charlie W!) Walmart was mostly ready … After 8 singles, the dude […]

TRU is up & running! From BMW, this is the smaller TRU configuration but it will look basically like this … The Ridezmaker stuff looks pretty nice … though you will need bigger and wider shelves. 🙂 “Kachow95” sends a pic of his haul from WM – looks like a little of everything – wow, […]

Keep in mind this check list shows everything that should be out on the shelf starting tomorrow (officially) and through approximately when the movie opens. MORE products are coming later in the summer but this list reflects only products scheduled between now and the time the film opens. as you know, lists don’t necessarily mean […]

You’re now anywhere from 10-24 hours from the official CARS selling season … Cool look display (thanks Monica!) This is from Australia but our TRU should look like this very soon (if not today!) where the entire front wall becomes CARS, CARS, CARS … Now, I’d like to see someone put everything into a cart […]

I believe this is the full list of playset-track sets available on opening day … Rod’s Escape might actually be called Stunt Ramp Getaway – hard to tell without the box. Thanks for the photos, Nikko & SlicePie. Thanks. Happy collecting!

Remember back in the day when you wanted to buy CARS by the case? To save time and to get everything in a nice sealed case? It’s like it’s 2007 to 2009 again … Our friends at CTC has posted CASE D & E up for shipping on Monday. CASE D 1 Acer 4 Finn […]
