While there will be a Kyle Larson NASCAR diecast for his win at Michigan, it will NOT come with the CARS 3 logo (speculation is Mattel has the license for the logo on diecasts?) … Guess it shouldn’t be too difficult to add your own tampo decal as they’ll probably just leave the back quarter […]

Thanks “David V.” CARS 3 diecasts have mostly arrived in France, the movie is not arriving until August in France … 9€ for singles. 15€ for Deluxe and the 3-pack is at 31€. Probably cheaper to fly to the US for $55 and load up. It’s State Fair season! We’ve save you some fried butter, fried […]

There is a Jackson Storm Hauler coming – Jackson Storm Transforming Hauler … Thanks for the heads up, “Larry M.” From Mattel, so it’s in scale. Detachable. Presumably as a playset, it’s all plastic (versus Haulers which are part of the diecast lineup). In scale but not very canon interior. Though display-wise it’s canon. The […]

While this video from Matchbox is from the 1960’s – the process hasn’t changed much though of course, the day to day actual procedures have changed – prototypes are not carved from wood anymore … and factory workers tend not to walk around carrying molten zinc in ladles with their bare hands or without eye […]

Thanks for the nice photos, “Jared YYT.” Of course, they’re $25 USD (ouch!!) Fillmore from the box set had a 60’s deco – the single has an opening trunk (with engine compartment) and it looks like headlights! Sally with the playset has working headlights – here it looks like just an engine compartmet opening. Thanks […]

The CARS 3 Movie Graphic Novel is nicely illustrated and essentially retells the movie plus two short comics of Cruz hanging out in Radiator Springs and one with Jackson Storm.  

The first of the Crazy 8 Racers at Thunder Hollow are arriving. Thanks for the pics, “Samuel K.” Cigalert (for those that do not live in California – “Sig Alert” is jargon for traffic reporting). Taco We are going to get a lot of diecasts from the hilarious Thunder Hollow Crazy 8 racers scene. Of […]

The Precision Series Sally’s Cozy Cone was rumored to be canceled but DO NOT PANIC. NOT TRUE. It has been moved to SPRING 2018 which makes sense with all the CARS 3 product around. So, save up your money. Still listed on Amazon so you can still look at the pics. Looks pretty huge and elaborate. […]

Amazon has a spend $25 – Get $5 Off promotion. It’s says “select items” – so these playsets apply – not sure what else, you can click around – only Amazon Prime items that they sell. When the item applies, the APPLICABLE PROMOTIONS blue text will show up. You automatically get it, no coupon code […]

Thanks for the great pics, “John H.” The Target-only Rust-Eze Racing Center Lightning McQueen. ALL Target -only. On 1:55 card, in the box set and the Jada 1:24 version. I really like this look on Lightning McQueen. Sharp. Shiny. Not actual gold foil – even imitation gold foil is too expensive – this is known […]
