Alternative post choices: “Better Red Than Classics Dead.” “Same Quality Control. New Eyes!” “Visine – Gets the Red Out … of Your Eyes, Your spray on […]

We might need to load up an RV of CARS to the Great White North … Me thinks all is not well beyond the Great Lakes … And since, there does not seem to be mainline singles, movie moments, launchers, haulers, 3-packs, promos … they have resorted to either collecting these or have mistaken these […]

In CARS 2, if there’s a Space Shuttle, they can already do a two pack with a Pitty 🙂 Thanks for the pic Sander P. And going nearly as fast is MCL Sydney-Harris’ son … And Jason T. seems to have a confetti-less Lightning McQueen with a production date code from 2008! Interesting. Speaking of […]

Not quite FINAL FINAL yet … Apparently the CAR on the blister will actually face to our right or in the direction of the name-plate arrow. Also not final because of course, this is Radiator Springs McQueen with wrong nameplate. And another little tidbit … under the T5 watermark above is the ONLY AT TARGET […]

The first poster included with the first release of CARS under the RACE O RAMA motif & design was this one-sided poster: It was replaced by this two-sided version for most of the Race O Rama series.
