Just found this link – thought it would be good to resurrect it & hear from the other Aussies on the board & possibly help each other out & exchange info.

So, to introduce myself – Im OzzieMum & I'm an East Coast gal (Sydney). I'm a mum of 1 boy (3 1/2) & step-mum of 2 (boy 7 1/2 & girl 9 1/2). We started collecting when Cars 2 got released although we do love the original Cars & Cars Toons & have only just started adding those to our collection.

no news to report this side of the pond. My local Target had about 6 singles on the pegs & not much else, my Kmart is full of Mack playsets & haven't seen anything new around since the Silver Racers got released in Nov.

My local KMart (Sydney) has now gotten in the Stunt Racers for $12.97. If anyone else is interested in these then I'm sure they'll be at your local Kmart's very soon!

Bump!

 

Hi fellow Aussies! I'm quite a new collector, only since last September really.

 

I've not seen anything new in Melbourne since November and December when Coles and Woolworths had the first 2014 cases of T and U/V. We got most of the ones we needed except Trike and N20 cola.

We got a Carla with flames, Suki, Marlon, Megan Carrar chase, Brent Mustangbanger, Hydraulic Ramone, Filmore with Headset, DJ, Kabuto, Acer with Headset, Timothy Twostroke and Shiny Wax.

 

Target, Big W, Toys R us, Toy World and Kmart haven't had anything new since October/early November where some of them had the end of 2013 line.

 

David Jones and Myer seem to have given up selling cars.

 

Anyone on here seen anything new anywhere apart from the big 2 supermarkets?

Hi all,

 

Just wondering if anyone found super chase Luigi and Guido in NSW? Have retailers actually released case b in Australia?

Hi Carsfan,

I am not aware of case B being released in Aus.

 

In Melbourne, we have had only international cards this year and I don't think they usually put superchases on international cards.

 

There was a report of a superchase Trike being found in Perth a long time ago about the time of the switch from American to international cards.

 

The recent cases that I have seen in the past month have been case A and Y in Coles, Woolworths, Big W and one Target. There are still some case U and W on the shelves too.

 

I have seen the 6 neons but not Shu in Toyworld and the deluxe cases H and J in Target.

 

I have also seen the most recent Radiator Springs Classic case with FHH in TRU and a few 3 packs there too.

Thanks for the answer Silver Frosty. The situation is exactly the same in NSW.
