There is a whole complicated Play ‘N Race playset, trackset, launchers & tracks where you buy each piece separately and attach them together (the PLANES: FIRE & RESCUE playset/tracksets might also attach). These are the launchers: Piston Cup Pit Stop Route 66’s Speed Trap Tractor Tippin’ Fields You can attach them to “townie” playsets … […]

The next singles CASE H is much like the previous cases this year, 1 each of new vehicles and the other 21 a sprinkling of 2014 releases … The new CARS in the case includes Francesco Fan, Alberto: Casino Pitty’s (SORRY< NO CASINO PITTY’s) Sally with Tattoo Thanks for the heads up “ED!”    

Our good friend, “David V.” has put up a fun post at the French “World of CARS Forum” linking all the real Pixar employees with their diecast counterparts. Check out all the name gamers HERE!

It looks like the first case of 2015 will be the P CASE. The Q CASE will follow as it does in the alphabet (er, wait, let me sing the song just to be sure – should I find a 6-year old as double verification?) 🙂 The P CASE mostly contains “common” re-releases from 2014 […]

The TRU pricing of the mainline singles at $5.99 do not seem to affect sales – at least in my area. While they are not flying off the shelves, they are still steadily selling even though not a lot of new releases make it to the shelves – and while they are marked 40% more […]

It looks like the next (and last?) Super Chase is (chops down screen – hiiiyaaa) – Carateka Thanks for the great photos, “ED!” This is a strange choice as a Super Chase – unless they figure he’s just too much metal to remake? Your Super Chase lineup 2014. Thanks ED!  

Duct Tape Mater is coming in CASE J. If you can’t wait, you can make your own custom … if I can do it, any 4-year old just woken up from a nap can … Thanks  “ED!” BTW, Duct Tape started out as “duck tape” (Wikipedia).

The Disney Store is offering 1:43 scale Radiator Springs 500½ diecasts – those off-road CARS will weigh a ton with all the metal in the Disney Store releases. There are two box sets, one features “Stanley Mater.”   Mater Off Road Series Die Cast Set You can find the other set here with Lightning McQueen. […]

If you like the Riplash racers … I’m guessing the “winner” of the race drops out of the hole – not sure what happens while it’s racing around inside but it looks pretty elaborate.

In addition to 5-packs coming of the Piston Cup Racers, we will also be getting 5-packs of the WGP Racers from CARS 2. There was once a 10-pack of the racers (missing Rip Clutchgoneski). Presumably there will be at least 3 5-packs to deliver you all 11 WGP racers.
