The previous releases of the Disney Theme parks Expanded Universe CAR WARS diecasts do not seem to be from Mattel (my thoughts here), this years releases strongly suggest they are from Mattel (my evidence is from John H’s photos – seen below). More info on this year’s 2015 series 3 is here. Lightning McQueen as […]

In honor of RED Day, win a couple Red’s (er, the vehicle kind). One Red you can play with in the Red Sea and the other on a Red letter day! Confused? Yea, I lost track of the pun train. How about win 2 Red’s – one diecast, one hydro! Thanks Disney! Contest starts now […]

The history of ‘dirty” Lightning McQueen is not a pretty picture. The first attempt was Willie’s Butte McQueen. He was only available with the Radiator Springs Mountain Challenge track set. He was basically Lightning McQueen (also missing the Rust-eze tampo decal on the back spoiler) with dirt overspray, brown wheels and a matte finish versus […]
