The Racing Tractors are nicely done They are really nicely done – highly detailed when they are just ‘brief hallucinations’ – the engine is painted, they have different eye positions, rims and nicely done paint schemes … And yep, even “udders,” though I guess you can argue they are just bolts holding the engine plate […]

Thanks “Carl P.” for the heads up & photos. The Race ‘N Go Playset looks like fun for smaller kids … Some assembly required and look, you can actually learn a new language … though I’m not sure how often you need the phrase “3 Ways to Play.” Or it comes up often for you […]

Thanks, “Samuel K.” for the heads up and pics … the nice paint livery NASCAR series is continuing … Bubba Wheelhouse (with NEW for 2022 snipe). Looks like Rowdy Revvin’ Busch is coming soon – sponsored by Hostile Takeover Bank! (everything else on the cardback was released in 2021). Also a new Fabulous Hudson Hornet […]

Thanks “Mark T.” for the heads up. Some Walmarts are getting 2022 CARS but have not changed prices – Target seems to be listing CARS singles at $4.99 (quite a difference for non-math majors 🙂  ). But don’t forget that Target will price match … I’m not sure if Target will accept the photo above? […]

Thanks “Carl P.” for the heads up … looks like my Target and hopefully not yours but … 🙁 Empty Pegs & Price Increase … The world’s worst country & western song …

While not technically CHASE cars of 2021, the Racing Red Series + Golden Lightning McQueen seem like one-shot, one & done releases. Racing Red: Francesco Bernoulli, Sally, Dinoco Cruz Ramirez, Storm Jackson, Ligtning & Mater … + Golden Lightning McQueen … Great paint schemes … Great looking red metallic … Collect ’em all.

From 2021, the very fun and col Millie with floor cleaner … You also get a cone. The floor cleaner/scrubber is actually really well done – detailed with real wheels … not just an accessory … but with metal, you can call it a diecast if you want. Nice! They could have just made it […]

Some more random photos from CARS days gone by …

Cleaning up my old folders, found some CARS photos of interest to long time collectors – those of you can explain them to newbies … especially the part where people would actually gather in public places with lots of other people … (You can write your own captions and memories) 🙂    

A closer look the new cards … The name is now imprinted on the card (or what’s left, Ralph Carlow) … Instead of a plastic molded fold piece that fits inside a bubble, the bubble is now the molded piece, saving an extra piece of plastic (less waste for openers) and pretty snug so no […]
