Walmart has gotten Wave 2 of the re-release of Monster Truck Mater Toon diecasts. Thanks “Damian V.” for the great photos. Nice to get I Screamer, one of the coolest diecasts. Rasta Mater. Rasta Carian. Tormentor’s Biggest Fan – also a fun one to see back. Frightening McMean (Lightning McQueen) was also re-released along with […]

Strike the band, the party gang is almost all here! The expressions on Luigi & Guido even match! Francesca, Guido’s Dance Partner (blue) is a CHASE in CASE H only. France, Luigi’s Dance Partner has already been released but there should be another one in CASE J (or its twin CASE K). Thanks for the […]

Besides John H., who else is collecting all the Micro Drifters? 🙂 Thanks to him, we have a nice visual checklist if you’re collecting ’em all … By theme from Top to Bottom: Piston Cup Racers (CARS 1),  World Grand Prix Racers (CARS 2) and Metallic World Grand Prix Racers. If you’re keeping track, the […]

Apparently Walmart is breaking the Monday embargo by putting them out today … And it’s a CHASE snipe! 🙂 “Wal-Mart had worked with Hostess to make special packaging with the words “First Batch” available exclusively at its stores.” Bet you thought you’d never live to see the day there are FRESH TWINKIES! Our long national […]

Pretty darn cute … You can pre-order the sets at Sideshow Collectibles … (also available individually). Monsters University And the original, Monsters Inc.

Next, when it was first announced, its contents essentially mirrored CASE H […]

People have been building “flying cars” for around 80 years, the only problem has been that most people willing to test them out complain it either drives terrible or flies terrible … This actually looks good as a plane and probably flies fine but it still looks downright ugly as a car … from Terrafugia […]

The first CHASE single of 2013 … and the first CHASE? Beating Franceso Fan Mater out to release, I believe? Thanks for the nice pics, “John H.” He looks mostly like the last singles release – with the new blue side windows & unibody. Suddenly, we have a lot of open hood releases! Decent detailing […]

From “Saukoon,” all the way from Singapore, it’s Maurice Wheelks … Previously known as the Communist in the Stands, oops, I mean, Red Guy in the Stands. In this case with his release, it is better to be red than dead. He is scheduled for US case J – coming next – probably around Back […]

The good news is the promo redemption portion is going smoothly. Details on redemption process HERE. Ivan is arriving packed very nicely and with the nice poster on super heavy stock paper. The interesting update seems to be that “PLANES are CARS.” People seem to be successful buying PLANES products and mailing the receipts in […]
