The Target-only PLANES 4-packs are quite nice. You don’t really save a lot of money from buying the singles individually but there are no repeats so far in the ones included in the 4-packs, for instance, regular Dusty is NOT included in every box – AMAZING! You could actually buy all 4 (three are out) […]

This looks to be the contents of the Kmart Case for Kmart CARS Day 2013 in October. It’s not perfect but it’s pretty good. The GREAT. Yep, Mildred Bylane and 2 in the case! 2 Boost with Flames! 3 Silver Metallic Rip Clutchgoneski’s! The GOOD. Mark Wheelsen, Luigi & Guido with Glasses – though only […]

GEE, I CANNOT FOR THE LIFE OF ME understand how Paypal got such a reputation … “PayPal says it’s finally serious about addressing some of its biggest customer-service issues, which its president admits the eBay unit has at times “become known for.”” You can read more at AllThingsDigital.

Looks like the latest issue of the Disney CARS magazine is devoted to PLANES. From “Quercy,” 41 pages, 2 reversible posters, A cut and fold paper planes (Dusty) and a pilot Ranking Book to assemble. Sounds nice! Thanks, “Quercy!”  

Yes, it’s a Labor Day miracle! You can find Super Chases just hanging around the pegs if you are pure of heart …er, how’s the rest go again? European, and Canadian collectors might want to avert this post. Sorry. Photos from Butter 1, Wraukn and Mariela P. Thanks! Do you need 911 assistance sir? Sir, […]

Better special effects – Mother Nature, Sinkhole, swamp trees … STAY OUT OF THE WATER! How freaky would it be to be on a raft next to that grove of trees … Did I eat some magic beans? Am I getting taller? AAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!

The Ishani Pit Row Gift Set with Pitty & Tent is out.   “Jupiter20” correctly notes it’s available at Amazon. In fact, Amazon has all 5 in stock at the nice price of $11.99 with free shipping (including Ripslinger). Thanks for the nice pics, “Corinne.” You can find an open pic in this post along with […]

With remnants of CASE H, and a random mix of CASE N, M, R and possibly Q out there – how can you tell what’s on your store shelves, what you missed out on or what probably has NOT arrived at that store’s pegs … Here’s a handy chart. Obviously if you spot Super Chases […]

LEGO Series 11 Mini-Figures are out. This looks like a nice series. The Wood Mask Guy is my favorite. Space soldier is nice. Welder is cool. Can’t go wrong with Abominable Snowman handing you a popsicle! (Couldn’t do the snowcone) 🙂 Good that’s there’s a woman scientist – cool beakers! Gingerbread man – good thing […]

The Super Chase scheme makes very little sense for Disney Pixar CARS – if every CAR except for Francesco Bernoulli is a sellout since 2006, why do you need to create super limited editions to juice the market? Let’s go to the trouble to make as little money as possible when 95% of EVERY diecast […]
