Operation: Lightning McQueen CARS is out at the Disney resorts-theme parks & should be available online at the DisneyStores.com soon. Nice that brain removal is not one of the choices here. 🙂 And “If you hit the sides when removing the various elements, you will hear automotive sounds, not a traditional buzzer.” And from Mattel, […]
