Mattel Disney Pixar Diecast CARS: Reader Photos …
Thanks for sending in photos and info … yes, sometimes I lose track of them or have to wait for the right moment … so I have not forgotten you … unless I have …
This is why we collect the CARS … for angelic daughters and sons who will taste test the box … hurry up dad! Thanks JesterJef.
John in MO has found the world’s smallest Walmart Toy section …
This toy section makes me sad …
Or maybe it’s just a scene from the saddest TV product placement special ever, “The Grinch that Stole Christmas at my Walmart.”
Thanks, John in MO – hope this wasn’t a WM in MO …
And Mia Senorita asks, if it’s snowing, where are the Christmas CARS? Snow already?
Well, they are in England which I guess is technically closer to the North Pole (no smart answers from Canadians about geography and proximity to the North Pole).
Of course, make sure your collection is as neat, orderly and military precise as Glenn H’s …
True Blue TakeFiver: Reads and buys sponsor products. 🙂
Shifty Drug & ReTread look lonely all by their lonesome …
“Altan” has found on eBay the limited valuable Green Ray Ben-10 Almost Lightning McQueen … (psst – don’t tell the eBayer that if he sold it without the stickers, the green MINI Lightning McQueen prototype would probably sell for $50 🙂 ).
Here’s the marketing difference – Belly Washer in a plastic bottle – $1.99 at TRU … Belly Washer in a bar – $12.00 and much sleazier 🙂
(sorry, lost track of who sent this …)
And Kmart Racers have made their way to Ireland … trade you some butter! (Thanks Paul B).
Thanks for the great photos!

Dang! Cows have heard about this post Met! They are insisting that they have image rights! Had to give them extra feed tonight and the red one has come over all Paris Hilton!
?
Great pics, all – Jeff, yer kids are adorable… I need to put some pictures of our junior opening cars… I think we may give him the HTB Hauler today; he’s got Mack and Dinoco, and loves lining up McQueen, King and Chick, as well as Mack and Gray (I hate that they named a blue truck gray! 3 year olds are not equipped to handle that!)… I think he’d love having the HTB hauler, too. It’s always such a balance giving him stuff, trying not to spoil the kid!
MiaSeniorita, I expect a reprise photo – with a Christmas Cars set!
Glenn, love what you’ve done with the display… my wife is getting more and more interested in getting a display case, but I’m still trying to figure out how to place it where little hands won’t rip it off the wall, and yet we can still see it…
Deal… just show me the cars! Then me and my cars will lay down and make snow angels – bliss 🙂 Of course.. the people trying to pull into the Target parking spot might not see it that way. . .
I completely agree with the Gray is Blue thing…. how do we explain that to a 3 year old?
Thanks! No worries on pulling them down though, they mount pretty secure to the wall. I can’t wait until the others get there so I can put the rest of my cars out!! 🙂
I use to be a merchandiser for the company I work with and thats some bad merchandising at that WalMart.
Awesome photos. Jeff, your cute kids are getting so big!
That is a very sad WM indeed, there is one like that around here too.
Mia, it is supposed to be in 80’s here today, ridiculous!
Glenn, are Barney and Marco suspended with fishing line from the cieling or something?
When my little Mitch saw the green McQ he said “That’s a fancy Ben 10 car, I love it!”
Belly Washers? Um, no comment.
Those commercials were wrong, looks like Ireland is the land of the happy cows, here in Southern California they have to lay around in dirt and dry dead vegetation.
No, Barney and Marco are not suspended (although that is a cool idea!). I ran out of room to display me entire collection, but no fear – there are tow more displays on their way to me and I should be able to get everything out then. (I hope).
NO Happy Cows in Cali? Hahahaha
Glenn’s Shifty Drug and Retread look SO LONELY with no crew mates. 🙁
Ya hear that Mattel!?!? NEED MORE RACE TEAM MEMBERS!! 🙂
No snow in the u.k. about 16 degrees c,
Just kinda came to me as we were playin’ on our radiator Springs play-mat…
When Mater says: “Pissed in his what?”
Well, the piston cup to cars is like the gold medal at the Olympics, right?
They gotta be one set of real, down home to goodness hillbillies, lost tin the middle of nowhere to never have heard of the Olympics!!!
It looks like MiaSenorita has her key ready as a weapon to fight off any eBayliens who rush her in the Cars aisle. 🙂
I do NOT mess around…. if I see someone walking quickly towards the toy aisle.. I’ve got my eye on them. NO sense in racing me… I know every back alley through Target to get to the toy aisle the fastest! That way I can sprint with no one seeing me…… LOL
OMG! So do I! The Garden Center is usually the fastest way in, but I know my way around the rest of the store too!
your kiddos are so cute jeff!!!
Great pics Dude-Met-Dude!
That lil’ guy in the first one is just lickin’ his lips,eh?!?!?!!!
Can’t wait to have displays like that around the house guys!!! All my (I mean my son’s!0 cars are in a bin or in their little plastic bubbles!
DOH!
Have cows x6.
Need Tach O Mint!
LOL!!!!! 😆
John,
That Walmart looks a lot like my local Walmart. They are doing a store re-model and have practically eliminated the toy department. I hope they will be finished before the holiday rush, although is sure doesn’t look like it will be.
Now that’s Funny!!…
Nice Cows!
Thanks Micky the cows in that picture are actually “factory seconds” I got from a guy in Hong Kong!
When was that snow, MiaSenorita?
First week in October… like the 2nd or around there. I was out cars shopping and it just felt so festive! I didn’t expect it to show up here, LOL! OH well. I swear I was at least Cars shopping and Target is right behind me. But no Christmas cars….yet 🙁
Mia,
The snow looks so nice. Gosh, that’s the only thing I miss about not living up north. I’m with you on the Christmas Cars. I can hardly wait to get a set and the Mater Christmas book too 🙂
Wow, that’s really early! We had our first snow around the 15th, and that was pretty early!
I wish I had a Target nearby!
Glenn . .. I see about 100 things I helped you with!! 🙂
You know it! Couldn’t have done it without you and all the other great Take5ers! Thanks a million!! 🙂
Glenn,
Loved all your displays. Now that’s the way to display CARS!
wow . . . my kids . . . they have hit the big time . . somebody punch me in the face! 😆
I can only guess which parent your son got that look from…… 😛
On a more serious note: your kids are adorable!
Jef,
Your kids are adorable. I’m guessing they take after your wife…just kidding 😉
Woo HOO..great display Glenn…even better display though from God, on MiaSenortia!!
EXACTLY . . . . how YOU doin’? miasenorita . . . . hace frio . . . 🙂
Yep, God did some pretty good work with Mia, oh you meant the snow, sorry yeah that’s nice too. Nice collection & Display Glenn. Can’t let the wife see that though because then I am going to get, why can’t John’s collection be so neat.? Beautiful kids Jazzy. Looks like everyones ready for some new cars and to get this Holiday season going.
Oh NO brother, I meant the classic carving of the Senorita herself…The Manfacturer did a GREAT job on that one!!!
Always love to see Takefiver’s pictures. Keep them coming 🙂
