This is a 2022 Training Day at Willie’s Butte box set that I found at the bottom of a box … a nice starter set especially if you’re missing Saludos Amigos Ramone … They apparently really thought Ramone would slip from his place in the box … or the more cynical reason, theft & replacement […]

I guess the logistics issue has been resolved … Usually at this Safeway,  there are about 20 Hot Wheels hanging on a sidecap … Happy Valentine’s Day?? Also impressive, after 55 years, these are cheaper than a HW in 1968 … $.90 each on sale.

The Circus Velocitas Showtime Story 4-Pack is the only 4-pack for theCARS On the Road so far … The main attraction is the “Circus Stunt Biplane.” A fancy metallic paint “El Chupacabra” (not really a bi-plane). His wings are plastic, the body & wheel covers are plastic. His body is diecast. And a new Pitty, […]

Takara Tomy has a few CARS On the Road releases including their 1:64 scale Cave Mater & Cave Lightning … Very cute.
