The latest “Stunt Racer,” transporter is out – Andre, Raoul Caroule’s race hauler transporter. Thanks for the great pics, “John H!” It is nice that it seems to work with your Raoul diecast. And parked, it looks like a nice accompaniment/accessory. But I find the lack of details disturbing … I’m still leaning towards not […]

“Toyfountain” sends along these early pics of Silver/Chrome Metallic Rip Clutchgoneski … Presumably, he will be part of the mix at the next Kmart CARS Day – June, 2013. What else will we get since the other 10 racers have already been released as crome metallic CARS? Since the Hudson Hornet (sticker) Lightning McQueen (CARS […]

“John H.” understands the proper way to play with Micro Drifters – giant fistful’s of them … Shakopee has nothing on Radiator Springs Crazy Days – maybe they need a second hotel. Or LA traffic 3 AM on a Wednesday night. Particularly realistic are the random CARS going sideway, just like the real freeways in […]

There are no diecast CARS for Easter – there are Micro Drifter 2-packs. There is no listing so it’s hard to tell if they are only available at “other channels” which means it’s not at the Big Three (WM, Target & TRU) but it’s hard to tell – is this space next to HW’s for […]

Looks like the countdown clock has begun … Not a huge discount on the 3-packs but $3 less per pack than at TRU. $12.99 each for Colossus and the Space Shuttle.

Opening up to next door to LEGOLAND is a LEGO Hotel! Now, it’s not actually made of LEGO bricks – it’s boring old wood, steel, and concrete … but it does have a few thousand LEGO things … yes, bolted down. Not included in the price of your room. 🙂 I believe this the license […]

Thanks to “NiftyNigel, ToyFountain, BMW, & John H.” for all the updated info, it’s now all compiled into one post. For a CAR with no lines, he certainly created a brouhaha. If you like a geeky blow by blow of diecast casting gone wrong, this is the underbelly! Others of you may wonder how is […]

The endcap should be up at your Walmart if your store is getting one. There is also a floor mini-pallet version so you might need to walk around a bit – I saw a Monster Jam Hot Wheels one in the aisle in front of the shoe section. For stores that have already put them […]
