The Target BOGO sale has ended – it was successful in clearing the shelves … Now will we get see actual re-stock? Weird that this is the only Hot Wheels Basic left – it’s not the worst looking HW’s out in circulation but hey, guess it’s a minivan. 🙂

The Vitaminamulch Gift Pack Box Set is pretty great. They did a great job of replicating Dusty, Chug & Sparky from the short! While only the “middle” parts of Dusty are diecast, he’s still great fun. He is AirDevil Jones Dusty. Nicely detailed. Every fun detail is there. With the hex so he fits in […]
