If you’re gonna fly a private jet, you wanna look good while buzzing the tower and look like you could drop a payload on someone, right? The new Saker private jet … It does Mach .99 – apparently a mile every 6-seconds with a range of 1,600 miles … Looks pretty good but I’ll wait […]

There are 5 Micro Drifters 3-packs listed – 4 are listed as Target exclusives … “John H.” has found the latest/last one: Bravo, Hector and Supercharged Dusty And the first three spotted by “Rob (My 6 Kids).” Dusty, Leadbottom & Skipper. Ishani, Zed (but really Ned) & Ripslinger. And Rochelle, El Chup & Bulldog. As […]

Exterior Box of the D23 Expo Convoy Brothers plus buying instructions is HERE. Unboxed Photos. Closeups of the Convoy Brothers. And now, in comparison – size & scale to other CARS diecasts … Yes, these are not huge RV’s but then RV’s come in all sizes and since it’s not a set with Albert Hinckley, […]

“John H.” supplied us with a nice visual checklist of every Micro Drifters CARS released. A few collecting along with John raised the issue of a Professor Z with monocle so here’s the resolution of that issue. Apparently, Professor Z with a monocle was a production fix. So, the international versions were always correct. It […]

Disney D23 Expo has a free app for IOS & Android. It looks pretty useful. Most info is not really posted yet but I think they’re adding it day by day. But cute stuff like this poster/print you can buy, of course. The D23 Expo Pins. Limited to 2,000 sets with two mystery “Chase” pins […]

The main overall photos ran here … Now, if they are ready for their closeups! Lights! Camera! Action! I’m not sure they’ve ever had names – I think they’ve always just been called the Convoy Brothers so we’ll just call them by the letters on their face. You do an I to spell TEAM. The […]

The exterior box is covered here. And now UNBOXED! The CARS sit on a inner tray. The outer tray (“Dinoco Hanger”) is easy to remove, it’s taped on the side and top, a quick slice and it opens up and the Convoy Brothers tray comes up & out. The clear plastic enclosure is taped/inserted into […]

Look who Monica spotted at SDCC! Quick, name ALL the characters he voiced in CARS that have been released as diecasts! Thanks for photo Monica/Matersgrlfriend!  

Next week, Jimmie Johnson will drive a Disney Toon PLANES Lowe’s Build and Grow car at the Pocono Race … Of course, you can pre-order the diecast version in 1:64 or 1:24 scale versions. The Monsters University one from a few weeks ago is pretty cool also. The Lowe’s Build and Grow free projects are […]

Mattel also has “deluxe” versions coming – only three announced … Turbo Dusty, Bravo & El Chupacabra … These all have mini batteries so it seems clear they will have sounds – unlike CARS, there’s no headlights on planes so maybe they will skip the ‘lights’ portion? (They will probably not bother to add mini […]
