For newbies who have just joined this line – at most of the stores right now, the shelves/pegs look pretty enticing. CARS are colorful, there is a nice variety … most of the main characters (other than Sally & Lizzie) are on the shelves … to the fun Pitty’s to some cool “minor character” choices like Axel … plus a few McQueen’s to pick from

So, that’s nice – anyone who is not collecting the line now gets a colorful over-view … and Target seems to have moved the short cards to an endcap side …

This is the first time I have ever seen the Dale Jr. short card actually on a shelf. (very bottom right) … I got an email from a reader saying their Target is going to re-load STORYTELLERS as an endcap.

Sadly, I don’t think the timing is right for the next set of STORYTELLERS to come …

Next New Storytellers are:

Bubba, Mater’s nemesis.

Buford, cousin – Buford.

Cousin Cletus.

Cousin Jud.

All from … Mater’s chapter in WORLD OF CARS – “HOOKWINKED.”
“Mater wasn’t always a rusty old tow truck. Find out why he started driving backwards and how he lost his hood while having a truckload of fun”

But balanced out from a bunch of rusty CARS are the  Motorama Girls that accompany Flo on her tour around the country in her chapter called “SHOWSTOPPERS.”

Of course, Flo is already out … (as a single for the first time).

Coming soon …

Laverne.

Rhonda and …

Sheila. These are only listed as singles.

I believe they only got approved at the beginning of December so my feeling is we’re still months away from seeing the 7 above, instead, I think it’s just a re-shipment of the first wave – hopefully at the new lower price.

All the info on the STORYTELLER SERIES and a visual checklist of the 3-packs (singles visual checklist coming).

Other possible STORYTELLER CARS from the book (post written before this post so some on the wish list are here ).

But maybe the other miracle is that the Target exclusive Movie Moments will finally hit the shelves …
