Disney Pixar Diecast CARS: Frank As Big As I Can Get Him …
The Disney Store finally comes through …
It’s a shot across the bow of Mattel … 🙂
Please thank “Nikko” for these great pictures. And I mean pictures. I kept peppering him with requests 🙂 … Can you send one where the moonbeam is coming off the South? Do you have tiny blades of grass 🙂
Frank, the size of a lobster …
In fact, I’m buttering him up right now.
Solid as a rock – Nikko estimates 3 pounds AND with rubber tires!
Nicely done and reasonable for its size – $20 …
But of course, maybe Nikko just takes great photos … what does this thing look like next to the 1:55 Lightning & Mater to recreate the infamous scene in all the glory in your house?
I believe the phrase is, “Yeah, baby.”
Or “Get thee to the Disney Store.”
Please remember, unless you are under the age of 3, you must pay for your purchases first before playing with them in the store 🙂
Thanks for the great photos Nikko. He wants to give a shout out to “Dan” for giving him the heads up. That’s the way it’s supposed to work. You tell someone who tells someone who has a camera phone, portable lightning equipment and props and you send us pics … and we in turn, we run to the stores and save retailers from this recession. Everyone clear on the plan that Dan & Nikko implemented to perfection? 🙂
Thanks and see you all at the Disney Store.
This bodes well for a giant *** Bessie now 🙂
Your move, Mattel 🙂
UPDATE: “Dan” sends us some more great photos …
Stand back – he’s molting!
You can tell he’s from a different ocean.
Oh oh, we got him mad.
Blades on … but more importantly … A family portrait …
Disney Store Frank & Mattel Megasize Frank (or Frank & Frank Jr.) out to ‘combine’ some things …
Okay, Dan & Nikko, you’ve convinced us 🙂

Ok everyone. Here at the Disney Store with the Franks. They have Franks at $19.50 + tax. I don’t want to make any money. We will be here until Thursday 8-13. If you want 1/24 Franks I will get them and ship to you. You pay actual cost for Frank, any PayPal fees and postage anyway you want them shipped. They have 2 stores here and had 8 at one store. They also had a Red Ransburg Mack diecast with 2 McQueens (plastic). The truck is beautiful with the trailer. These are $29.50 without tax. Let me know at moea525@charter.net and will pickup for you. Again I will make no money period. 8)
JUST picked up the last 2 at the Disney Outlet(?) Store, they were WELL hidden behind some Sarge’s Boot Camps (one will go on the trade board later).
The 1/43(?) ones were on sale 2/$10.. and is it the 1/43 Red and Tractor more the right size than the ‘normal’ ones are?
Anyone wanting a BIG Frank and willing to pay $25 plus actual shipping & $1.00 PayPal, let me know by EARLY Sunday morning, as I will be picking up whatever I need late Sunday morning/early afternoon. I’m going anyways, so I’ll help anyone that wants them. tjgraham1924 at hotmail dot com
Okay, looking at the Disney Store Frank and a 1-43rd Disney Store Mcqueen, they look about right for scale to each other.
I have seen real combiness next to real vehicles and I am guessing this Disney Store Frank the Combine is 1-43rd scale. MIGHT be a tic too big or the 1-55th cars.
Just called the Disney Store in Overland Park, KS-my Frank is on his way. Wait, I mean my sons Frank is on his way!
We all know what you REALLY meant….wink, wink.
I am still waiting for him to open up the mini Tank Coat and No Stall!
Nicole,
I ordered mine from Overland Park, KS as well. She said it should be here by Tuesday or Wednesday!!!
Well, Frankly (All punt intended) I like the one I made 2 years ago much better, and it was cheaper from the John Deer Green Sales Department; plus it came out to scale!!!

hello, yours looks cool, definitely
however, i think the disney one’s more to scale and more accurate
our disney store 2 hours away got 3 boxes in!
Hey miasenorita!! Tell your hubs that the Tulsa store has these !! Since he will be there Monday!
There is one in Boise as well. That is the closest one to all you Montanans.
Thanks Jake!
Did I say Montanans? I meant Montanadians.
I just don’t think that that is a real word!!!!
Did I miss it somewhere, or is the UPC or Disney Store Item Number(like from the receipt) available?
The photo showing the UPC is blurred just enough that I can’t make it out.
Anyone? Before I call our store an hour away?
That is just the best ever. Off to see if the website has it.
They are not available online.
I will have these in hand Wednesday. Price – $40 plus shipping. 18 available. I do not have them on the site yet so please email me if you are interested.

BTW – anyone else love the rusted wheels??
Was able to pick one up today, shipped to me for $28.04. Most U.S. stores got these in yesterday.. Good luck to everyone. Of all the characters, having an in-scale Frank to me is essential.
are these only in US Disney stores?
anyone in the Uk seen them?
i live a 2 hour train away from the nearest and dont fancy like wasting a trip!
Okay found them
Who wants some?
32.00 each plus shipping
well so much for that price, Shipping to me is gonna kill me.
1 case weighs approx 27lbs.
Id like to start a list if anyone is interested.
maybe 40.00 plus ship?
anyone have a link to the sales site?
HOLY COW!! I see a visit to the Disney Store in my future! any one with me??
Will this be at Disney World? Lock up your stuff, jazzy, I’m coming to raid the south in 3 days!!!!
I just got back from Disney (World) Village. They didn’t have it but maybe they will by the time you get here. Toy Store at Disney Village had a few Sven’s and the mini No Stall/Tank Coat. No new launchers unless you need Retread.
Some one the other day asked if the mini Mickey & Minnie Cars sets were still available. (was that you?) Anyway, they are 🙂
What I want to know is if the Disney World and Disneyland versions are the same or if the playmats are different.
Anyone?
The playsets at Disney World say DisneyLand on the box.
Mine is from Disneyland and has that too, so must be the same.
Thanks. I do want to get the mini Mickey/Minnie playset! I’m so excited – I can’t sleep!
I was just down there on thursday and they had at least a dozen MINI Playmat sets . . . I BOUGHT THEM ALL CUZ I KNEW YOU WOULD BE HERE SOON!! 😈
Eviljef!
I actually only bought three . . all for my fellow take 5 ers that made a special request . . . I would have gotten you one, but I knew you were coming down here anyway!
Now THAT is what I’m talkin’ about!!
…if they’d only get the Haulers in scale now…
I KNEW you were going to say THAT!!!!!
I think this might be a supervised play item, my boys could really hurt each other with this thing!
oh my, Zach is going to have a heart attack if he sees this, lol… maybe i wont show him and just keep it a secret till christmas, lol he LOVES Frank… this would have been great to take in for his pictures today instead of the regular mega ssize one… dangit!
I don’t need it!! AAAHHHHHHHHAAAH
What? Are you kidding me?
eh eh….
Ooooooooooooh! In the words of Luca NEEED!
ME TOO!!!! NEED NEED NEED!!!!
aww..just when i got frank jr.
will have to get this now, he my favourite character!
Very nice. More to scale than mega-size Frank.
Can he cut grass?
Thats a real Frank!! Love the combine blades!!
Well there’s a new ‘must have’ for our house.
WOW! That’s great!
