On the list to return in 2014 … Frankly, some people will give a D*** (Darn) … When? Unknown. Will it look like the last release? Unknown. There are some possible variant/versions possible – clean (no dirt), crazed eyes (chasing other CARS) or happy (dream sequence) or the lazy release – this one. I’m presuming […]

Ruka has arrived early. Thanks for the great photos, “John H.” One of the last CHASE CARS of 2013 – also in CASE Q along with Ichigo. Nice detailing on such a tiny CAR. She was supposed to the last CHASE CAR of the year in the Kmart Case – one of their “early to […]

It seems so simple … I has a few more questions. When you say 1/17, do you mean there are 17 CARS in this series as I only see this one and Francesco. I tend to only shop at Walmart, Target and Toys R Us but I do not find a lot of CARS on […]

I guess they presume kids will want anything that launches a vehicle? As I understand it, if you move the front tires, (plastic) Guido spins around Lightning and the red shifter launches the CAR out. I believe Ramone’s House of Body Art is right across the street – I’m sure he appreciates the rocket launch […]

“John H.” sends along nice photos of the new Luigi & Guido with Glasses … Guido is all new with “twisting forks” and of course, the three glasses accessory. And it’s immediately obvious that Luigi is different also – they have added the black “mold” line around his windshield/eyes. This line was added to all […]

Arriving in revised CASE Q – Ichigo. They should have added strawberry scratch & sniff. Thanks for the great photos, “John H.” From the family of “Suki Cute.” Repaints we do not mind – bring on as many as possible – we’ll collect ’em all but as a CHASE, we won’t see Ichigo again exactly […]

“Wraukn” sends along a lab pic of the upcoming Deluxe release for 2014 … He comes with both oil cans & a headset … I had to double check. It’s actually correct. Mack is the only Pit Crew Member that has both a headset & oil cans during the Pit Row scenes from CARS 1. […]

So, while we are on the cusp of wrapping up “Themes 2013” as a design motif – certainly as singles, and multi-packs, everything that is on the poster is out, however, there are still a few releases off the poster looming that we don’t know for certain. October, 2013 – the next announced Kmart CARS […]

I know. It’s like spotting Bigfoot. But Lizzie IS ON THE LIST FOR 2014. I guess when they looked at the final box for the Stanley & Lizzie box set. They remembered they once released a Lizzie painted black and without a veil … and decided to take a chance someone might want it after […]

Coming in 2014* … You waited and waited AND waited and waited some more … But coming in 2014! No case assortment info yet so it could be as early as November or late next year but gluing a headset to Mack should not be too difficult so I would not be surprised to see […]
