The Mattel Mini’s are very nicely done and DIECAST METAL – very nice (make sure it has the Mattel logo, there is a MINI series that is PLASTIC from THINKWAY). There are 17 out – with 6 more shown on the box – so presumably they are #18 to #23. They didn’t show #14 Fabulous […]

Thanks “TarHeelBill” for the heads up and photo. The Florida Speedway Mega Garage is definitely MEGA. Looks like fun.

10 YEARS – The Year by Year 2006 to 2016 Checklist is COMPLETE! Starting with 28 in 2006, we closed out 10 years of CARS, CARS 2, Toons, Storytellers, Expanded Universe and Disney Store (in scale only) releases of close to 1,200 diecasts. This is the YEAR by YEAR version (an alphabetical one is coming!) […]

More Jada 1:24’s are hitting the store shelves … (TRU) There’s also a “KEYBOARD” that’s disappointing in that it only plays music. I was hoping for soundbites like “I AM SPEED,” or “GET ‘ER DONE” or “YOU HURT YOUR WHAT?” when you tap on the keys …

There is an entirely listing of singles with accessories … Lightning & Storm with a trophy made a brief appearance … presumably the other Piston Cup racers are also coming with the Piston Cup trophy – as the old timey racers – the option is cheap and easy. But there’s a few that’s a mystery […]

Thanks “Celso From Miami,” for the great photos. Arriving at Target. Updated Checklist is HERE.

Thanks “Big Bad A-Man’s Dad” for the photos and heads up. From the “new” Amazon 10-pack … Some of these other releases definitely might be common re-releases. Speaking of common, RPM has a pretty common name – presumably a Pixarian? Nice graphics. With CARS 1 RPM Winford Bradford Rutherford, replaced by RPM Bruce Miller in CARS 3 who […]

Thanks “Toomsterev” for the heads up & photo. The 2-pack of Fabulous Lightning McQueen features the weird “prototype-like” screenshot of a mythical Fabulous DINOCO Lightning McQueen … Maybe at one point, CARS 3 ended with Cruz being sponsored by Rust-Eze so Lightning switched to Dinoco? It is a weird “prototype” as it’s also missing the LIGHT […]

You know those mouth-watering, very realistic looking Japanese food samples in the restaurant windows? The guy in the video makes it look easy. Gujo town in Gifu prefecture of Japan is the place where technology of making these ultra-realistic food samples used to show menu in Japanese restaurants began. These samples are made out of […]
