Thanks “JMDL Toys” for the nice photos. Oversized Dinoco Helicopter from CARS 1 – rerelease, looks about the same as the last release but it’s been a long while … Ivan Mater – Mater disguised as Ivan, first release. Kabuki Mater – first release. Nice & elaborate. Mack – note, this is CARS 1 Mack […]

There are still a few CASE P’s left if you want one – Children’s Toy Closet. Until they release an Apple CAR on card and a Rip Clutchgoneski in gold leaf, this is easily the greatest case ever assembled. CASE P. Lightning McQueen with Racing Wheel  1 Francesco Bernoulli 1 Race Team Sarge 1 Raoul […]

“David T.” is reporting that at some Target’s the London Rescue 12-pack is scanning at $32.99. I was at my Target earlier today but did not notice a markdown or sale sign but maybe they just haven’t gotten to it or different stores are adjusting prices depending on their inventory? So let us know the […]

On Honda Civic, On Ford Fusion, On ML 350 … it’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas! After some doom and gloom, it looks like things might be returning to normal and “holley” jolly! Walmart is getting CARS! It is a Christmas miracle – thanks “JD” for the heads up and photos! (those are […]

“Frank DF” sends along some of the scariest, and saddest CARS photos you might see in a while – so brace yourself … Here’s overstock in a Montreal, Canada store … Um, yea, note the RED BAND from May 2011 … yea, not May 2012, May 2011. These are the international cases so I do […]

Well, at least in one Walmart, they got a new case of CARS … well, Micro Drifters in the new CARS 2013 look … Thanks for the great photos, “John H!” Sally is the new release here. A few more townies … A new Hydrofoil Finn to collect! The most enticing 2 3-packs are the […]

Is this the new Walmart CARS section that will spread across America? (Thanks for the photo, “Quercy.”) Where CARS is slightly above the DAGEDAR series but behind Justin Bieber: Canada Ninja Kick Robot? It was once easy to figure CARS distribution. Once it was ready for shipping from the Mattel warehouses, @6,500 Walmart’s, Target’s and […]

“Unixed” sends along an interesting photo of the outside cardboard of his Disney Store Frank CARS Frank-Tractor Tipping Set … As you’ll note, there’s only one set inside each box so it looks like the initial shipment consisted of about 1,500 Frank 6-pack’s. Thanks, “Unixed.” While it reads sold out for now, more are coming – […]

Mattel seems to have given the word to NORAD to shoot down the idea of a reindeer CARS Christmas. While it’s not 100% 100% – there seems to be no listing for the Christmas CARS reindeer anymore … and of course, since it’s December, it seems pretty unlikely they are just in the warehouse or […]

If you placed your order in the second wave, Children’s Toy Closet has gotten their last pallet (and the last ones from the warehouse) … and they are on their way to you. Enjoy!
