There are two CASES of Ice Racers shipped. If you only spot 4 Ice Racers (and a bunch of LM’s and Max’s), it’s CASE A. The number indicates how many are in each case if more than 1. CASE C contains 7 of the 12 Ice Racers – 12 in the case. There is no […]

“BMW” was passed along an interesting anecdote from someone … “I ran into a Mattel rep at Walmart the other day. I asked him why there was no new stock and told him it’s been like that for months. He got out his iPad and scanned a single. He told me there is none on order […]

“Pontiac, Michigan” sends along pics of his find at Target … I presume in Pontiac, Michigan? 🙂 A nice first case – there’s no ONLY AT TARGET sticker that I can see so will these appear elsewhere? There is also a 4-pack. Ice Racers Lewis Hamilton, Shu Todoroki, Raoul Caroule, Lightning, Petrov Vitaly, Max Schnell […]

“John H.” sends along some nice & interesting pics of the single carded Mama Bernoulli. On the surface, you wouldn’t think they’d create a Mama Bernoulli variant.   It’s unknown if the giant crease is a one-off that John H. found or whether it’s some poor production process for the new Mama Bernoulli. Some is […]

The full contents of the 4-packs are in this post, here are close ups of the “new” singles in each 4-pack … The definite and long awaited new CAR sculpt, a BMW! … the BMW 2002 finally in CARS diecast form! We’ll take another dozen in another dozen color without the shield flag on the […]

The next 4 Target 4-packs have been revealed – same as it ever was … 3 re-releases & one new release – though since not all the WGP racers are available as singles (unlike the last go around for these), it is ever so slightly better for newcomers … for long time collectors, it’s essentially […]

Thanks “ED” for the nice pics of the new 2015 2-packs. All are re-releases though some have not been out in a while – plastic tire Easy Idle has only been released as a launcher, no single, no 2-pack … and Easy Idle Pitty hasn’t been out as a single since ROR … though you […]

“Optom (Daven)” is again offering up a super limited Gold Metallic Finish Frosty diecast on card to one lucky winner! Plus an exclusive Australian poster! This was only available in Australia. “Optom (Daven)” is in Australia and will ship this prize worldwide. It also comes with a mini poster of this year’s releases. In addition […]

With the release of Jonathan Shiftko, it’s natural to wonder what became of Otto Bonn, Max Schnell’s Crew Chief – who made an appearance on the EU version of the CARS poster in 2012 but has never actually gotten a release. Thanks for the great pics “JB!” What’s interesting is Otto Bonn is an appropriately […]
