Great news! TRU seems to have doubled the value of your CARS diecast! Well, technically 71% increase in value … that is the only way to look at it, right? Right? Right? Or if you prefer, 42% inflation. Not so good. Of course, you don’t mind paying extra as charity to Bain Capital Partners LLC, […]

There’s no listing for how many box sets there will be … this might be the first one? NOW on Amazon. It might make sense since they are producing Tach-O-Mint for the first case of singles, this might be the 1st 5-pack. The most basic math is that we’ll get 35 of the Piston Cup […]

Something new, an all-plastic 1:55 release (not diecast metal) in a box called Race to the Rescue Play Pack. Looks cute.

The “Propwash Junction Airport” playset has been repacked with Pitty’s, more runway and tents … and now called the Deluxe Pit Row Playset. So you lose plastic Leadbottom but you gain three more plastic Pitty’s and you still get plastic Dusty & Skipper. I thought the photo of Leadbottom meant you got him in the […]

Walmart has an exclusive on Toon re-releases … Komodo looks like unibody variant. Komodo’s mouth used to be a plastic plate, now just a unibody diecast. Kabuto Ninja has not made it out yet but it looks like it’s been upgraded to a unibody also … but the evidence is ONLY based on this official […]
