This was Bruiser when he first made an appearance as a WM8 CAR … Or close up … Brown Eyed Guy. Many, many, many, many months later he finally returned to the US market as part of the 3-pack … One eye color  change. He’s now blue eyes Bruiser … no a huge deal right? […]

The GOOD NEWS is Patti and Todd the Pizza Planet Truck are coming in CASE H. The not so good news? You did ask for more Lightning McQueen’s, right? And there is a blank space at the end because the listing reads Impound McQueen (CHASE) which is presumably not correct as Chase CARS are only […]
