As requested, “Nikko” snapped some nice shots of the PLANES cabinet closer in … Most of the diecasts were already revealed in this post but still nice to see either real diecasts or at least the prototypes out in the open. Rochelle looks good sized. Here’s Ned and Zed (technically, we’ve never seen Zed as […]

“Quercy” sends us a review! “123 pages. I liked it.” SPOILER ALERT after the Amazon Link so STOP reading if you don’t want to know anything (or more!) “I believe kids will like it because the race has 7 legs and goes on pretty much the entire story… I can imagine the scenes at cinema […]

Rob (My 6 Kids) spots Bravo on the deck … Bravo as a single (for now) is only included in 2 of the first 4 cases available to retailers (some case assortments might be an exclusive) … since this is from TRU, perhaps WM is the other retailer? Bravo is the last of the wave […]

So far in the stores that have received PLANES products like TRU below, the diecasts seem to be selling well. The two closest Targets only have a scattering of product but the movie is still 5 weeks away. The playsets don’t seem to have much action – has anyone bought and tested out the playsets?

It’s been nearly a week so why not a change in plans? :-/ It looks like now the PLANES PIT ROW GIFT SETS are available everywhere – not Walmart exclusives. The updated listing no longer says anything about Walmart Exclusive. In fact, “Danrio” has already found the Ripslinger Gift Set at Target … Interesting that […]
