Thanks for the nice pics, “Mark T.” Original Mia & Tia are back with the eyelid line. These new 2021 re-releases are variants with different eyelid lines and expressions. They seem to be a darker red with more of a floss overspray. With the eyelid differences, it’s definitely V2. More of a “fangirl” expression … […]

Welcome back to Radiator Springs welcomes back One Eye Mater. Thanks “Mark T.” for the great photos. Besides the eyelid line, probably some minor production changes but nothing significant. Accessories: a stand, a “license plate” and extra hook? Hairpin? Oh, it’s a keychain hook … Only at Target.

Thanks, “Mark T.” for the nice photos, Stee Hearsell returns in Hot Rod form … THE UNDERTAKER … He’s really the GRIM GRIM?  What is that?

Thanks, “compassinfo” for the heads up and photo.  It looks like WELCOME TO RADIATOR SPRINGS series is back at Target. They all come with a sign that is unique to this series. They each include accessories that might be a slight variants from its first release but not significant. Happy hunting!

Thanks “Mark T.” for the great photos. Jimmy Lugwrench, a cool looking old retro Thomasville racer … Fun paint scheme. Great details. He even gets a plate!

Thanks, “Carl P.” forgoing through the Mater saves Christmas book and highlighting the diecasts we;re still missing (presuming we get the Reindeer CARS this year). Red Nose & Snow Day Lizzie. Elves! And a Cord? Is that Mrs Claus? Santa’s PR guy?

“Carl P.” found BOTH in one shopping trip … That’s pretty spooky … Is this the beginning of Final Destination 14? Or if you see Carl P this halloween dressed in black with a scythe, RUN! … Unless he has full size candy bars, then it’s all okay. 🙂

Finally a productive use for the treadmill, the “Treadmill Guy” holds races and from what I can see, ARS seem really good at wiping out a bunch of other diecasts 🙂 Jeff Gorvette takes out almost the entire field!  🙂   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Treadmill Guy (@treadmillguy) You […]

Tanks, “Carl P.” for the photo. Not surprised, when CAS sell out, the pegs of other toys not seling as well start moving in-merging in … 🙁 It doesn’t look great in the near term … Bank of America reports congestion at West Coast ports is back with a vengeance. Ships at anchor in the […]
