Maybe next time when the kids want to stop at McDonald’s … you should stop. (it will make sense after you see this video).

It looks we’re getting everything on the poster for 2013.* It looks like the E Case will be the same as the international assortment.   These are in the warehouse – not shipping yet but soon. Photos below from Canada – thanks Buckland Blowouts! Lightning with Rust-eze Sign & Fred Doug Speedcheck & Palace Guard […]

Coming soon to a retail store near you – probably around the time the PLANES DVD is coming out? Probably November? Comes with 48 PLANES and 12 CARS. Presumably it will be more than just Dusty & McQueen but you never know. 🙂

“Holly H.” got a very nice surprise – upgrade in her Factory Sealed Case N … The case is supposed to include a regular Rip Clutchgoneski but in all the repacking, unpacking and re-packing, it seems a Metallic Finish Rip Clutchgoneski must’ve slipped in from the “Kmart Case.” I originally thought this Gold Metallic Rip […]

Greetings to All T5ers From Met & Tizmanian: As long time readers know, TakeFiveaDay is much more stable and our server up-time is pretty regular now – thanks to the hard work of Tizmanian, David V. and our expensive server package. We certainly hope you enjoy the site. We have yet to push out sales […]

The 3 PLANES Target 4-pack box sets have been a big hit and the 4th one with the Navy jets should be a blazing seller. So, two more box sets have been added. No names and no listings of what’s in the sets. We can cross our fingers and hope there are not many or […]

Bob “the Master Maker” has made some amazing customs from Chug! Dinoco Note the nice touch of the stalks on the door. Nice flames on the door! If Mattel packed this in a case, there would definitely be 8 Octane Gains. 🙂 Very cool original design. Old school! Classic! I think this is my favorite […]

It looks like from the time they announced the newly compiled cases, they made more changes to it … the least confusing way is probably this chart to see what changed from announced P to actual P and how you view/might view the alleged Kmart case … SPOILER ALERT: No Mildred Bylane, No Super Chase […]

Walmart.com has the Pit Crew launchers – 2013 version – which have not appeared at many retail stores. Remember, these come with ONE diecast (the racer). The Pitty is plastic and attached to the launcher. Walmart does not list the 4th one – Vitoline. These three, Lightning McQueen, Raoule Caroule and Leak Less (along with […]
