“Hey look, I’ve worked here for 3 weeks and I’m telling you, this is the complete line … those pictures on the back are coming next year.” “What do you mean we have a poor selection? We got 200 CARS in stock.” “Sure, I’ll put out CASE H – as soon as we sell these […]

Ah Fred, who knew you could create such problems … It seems, based on this scene, we got original Fred … but we knew he wasn’t quite right … It’s been suggested that Fred is a Studebaker Lark though he looks more in line with several Fiats* or its European/Russian knockoffs like the Riva or […]

Thanks for Caitlin/FPG who has actually designed real t-shirts for us (versus the ones I made …). The new WHOOP WHOOP one is my favorite, hard to tell from the screensnap so a larger version of the artwork is included for you. There are also some older t-shirts that probably don’t make much sense now […]

Lenin V and the family are putting together these Santa McQueen’s “as a thank you for a donation to the LA Children Hospital, Loma Linda Children Hospital, and … with the LA Post office on the “Be an Elf” program where we will go & fulfill some Santa letters from children in poor neighborhoods.” If […]

I know some of you think I’m crazy and that all I see is birdseed when I go to Walmart … well, thanks to Amy/Bravo1616 who is a thousand miles away from me – she snapped a typical pic that proves they’re not just trying to drive me crazy in NoCal … I think that’s […]

And now some corrected and updated UPC’s … Night Scope McQueen with CARS Collector’s Guide • 0-27084-68000-3

Apparently this will be the winter of Mack’s … Risky S. sends along some nice pics of the hard-to-find Mack from Japan … Looks like he’s about the size of the original Mack from the Mack playsets (here in the US) … Cool graphics when he’s open – also back opens, of course opens so […]

The new holiday Mini’s at Target are all Mini’s that have already been released but the packaging is ‘new” and holiday themed (but not the CARS, booooooooo). Tricia D. was nice enough to snap a photo for us: I guess I forgot the one displayed at San Diego Comic Con ,,, while they have kept […]

Racerguy in SD emailed us a phone pic – it exists! It didn’t seem like we needed a “second” Lightning Fast Speedway set but okay … (for fanatical completists, it should be noted, the (original) Lightning Fast Speedway is the ONLY place to buy the 2-piece regular Lightning McQueen … see our post on variants […]
