Looks like the next three Planes Gift Sets with Pitty (and Tent) are Walmart Exclusives: Ripslinger … one of the first 4 PLANES Gift Sets revealed but now we know it’s a Walmart exclusive. Of course, Walmart also thinks this is Bulldog. Ishani gets a Gift Set & Pitty – the Pitty even has a […]

Actually out on the show floor – PLANES – thanks for the photos, “John H!” He did all the hard work so you can decide what store(s) to shop at. Kmart … it’s unclear if PLANES products counts in the Ivan mail-away offer … if they do count, obviously, that’s nice – will someone call […]

It’s still hard to really tell what size Yorkie is … though if that “Navy Dusty” is about the same size as a diecast release (this one is plastic), it looks wide enough to land and park some PLANES. I think the shipping info implies he’s around 18″ long? Navy Dusty can buzz the tower. […]

“Lane Change” spots them out at Target … These are the only two box sets listed so unless a surprise pops up at WM or TRU, these are it (there are no 7-packs listed). These are the only two box sets for now – there are two more scheduled for later in the year at […]

“Optom” sends us new photos from Australia – I guess halfway through stacking the shelf, they looked at the orange band and realized it was not June 28th yet … Of course, in today’s world, the embargo thing makes very little sense. There was once a logistical and a creative reason. Logistically, because deliveries were […]

No embargo issues in Australia … Thanks for the nice pic, “OzzieMum.”

“Mariela P.” spotted these at TRU. I believe this is the way they first delivered air mail, they would fly over and toss the bag from the bi-plane … so as a tribute to aviation days of yore – lumpy style! I might ask for a discount. So, this looks like the first case assortment, […]

Last week, I posted that Dusty Crophopper was based on a Cessna 188B – it turns out that Dusty is an “Air Tractor AT-301.” (thanks for the update and heads up “Hypercarrots,”) I’m not aviation expert but if you look at photos of the Cessna 188 which was manufactured from 1966 to 1983 and the […]

The Disney Store has some super nice McDonnell Douglas* F/A-18 Hornets PLANES characters – Bravo & Echo. * McDonnell Douglas is now owned by Boeing. Bravo Diecast Deluxe. Echo Diecast Deluxe. “John H.” sends along great pics and all the useful scale info. Real – Boeing F/A-18E Super Hornet Length: 60 ft 1¼ in (18.31 […]
