Who is this guy on YouTube? And how does he get access to all these CARS?

I have wondered the same thing. Lives somewhere warm with an outdoor pool, that's all I can tell.

My son loves watching Blue Collection but has a big interest in Hot Wheels so he's been watching Race Grooves. Funny thing is when I listen without watching they almost sound the same.

Maybe he gets paid to review cars. Is it possible Mattel sends him a lot of new Cars products? After all, he does have 377,643,253 video views on Youtube! (i just copied/pasted that. ha ha)I have heard him mention getting older ones from flea markets. Beats me. He even gets Kday Cars in advance to the Kmart events! Lucky guy!

I've heard of people getting Kmart KDay boxes early on accident. Then selling them on eBay.
He must be getting hooked up my Mattel. I bet he comes on this board too
Lucky guy!

I don't think he is tied into Mattel, or if he is, Mattel might get him some stuff early at the most. The reason I say this is that he says a lot of things that are inaccurate and I don't think he does it on purpose.
Case in point, on a DS Memo review, he said that he didn't think Mattel was coming out with a 1:55 Memo. But at the time Mattel had already said which 5 super chases were coming out.
Just little things like that. I think he has a big net of hookups that help him out due to his videos.

In the comments section of his Facebook page you said he has a hookup from Mattel. Since he talks about finding things in stores and at flea markets I'm sure it is safe to say he doesn't work for the company. Still great videos though!

Something to gab about while we wait for new Cars to come out. ![Laugh](/wp-content/forum-smileys/sf-laugh.gif)
I'll ask him the next time I run into him, he's friendly enough. He bought up every one of the Target London Rescue sets around here long before they went on sale and broke them down into singles to sell on line. I've seen him with shopping carts full at both Target and TRU. He told me there's a strong overseas market for loose Cars.
