There’s a new German mail-away, not too terribly exciting … Yep, buy 4 Mattel Disney Pixar CARS, mail in your info and get “White Walls Lightning McQueen.” This might be nice if it were 2008 but in 2013, not that enticing though maybe Whitewalls LM never got a EU release? I can’t quite tell but […]

Rob (My 6 Kids) has also spotted the Micro Drifter PLANES … Dusty, Leadbottom & Skipper. Ishani, Zed & Ripslinger. Rochelle, El Chup & Bulldog. It looks like the full complement of the PLANES shown off so far in the trailer – and look, only one 3-pack with Dusty! Thanks for the nice photos, “Rob […]

Rob (My 6 Kids) spots Bravo on the deck … Bravo as a single (for now) is only included in 2 of the first 4 cases available to retailers (some case assortments might be an exclusive) … since this is from TRU, perhaps WM is the other retailer? Bravo is the last of the wave […]

You can find some of the Planes Bios Poster Art at iTunes for download. This one is not available there but it’s a fun one …

“Unixed” has tracked down the three newest Disney Store diecast CARS. Thanks for the great photos! Prince Wheeliam is online and one of the rare non-CHASE diecasts from the Disney Store. As the Disney Store CARS are all metal, this Bentley should weigh a ton! A purple version of Tuner Tokyo Mater is also available […]

Disney is going new old-school in creating a bunch of new Mickey Mouse cartoons that harken back to the day when Mickey was a scamp and full of hijinks – also done in the style of the 1930’s Mickey. The first one debuted back in March but now they’ll appear once a week every Friday […]

Thanks to “John H,” we can get a nice closeup of the PLANES Gift Sets … there are three out now (with the next three shown in this post). You get the “singles” PLANE, the pit crew Pitty and a “hanger tent.” If you are collecting the Pitty’s, they are apparently ONLY available in the […]

Yes, I think Rip Clutchgoneski is a nice release … But let’s not get blinded by the light … you know so you’re not cut loose like a deuce, – like you’re just another runner in the night … you know what I mean. There is no need to pay up to $40 for Rip […]

Of course, the final verdict won’t be in until the film actually comes out for a real comparison of scale, scope and size comparison in their scenes … But “John H.” sends along some great pics to begin to weigh the evidence … You can find earlier coverage on the scale of PLANES HERE & […]

So far in the stores that have received PLANES products like TRU below, the diecasts seem to be selling well. The two closest Targets only have a scattering of product but the movie is still 5 weeks away. The playsets don’t seem to have much action – has anyone bought and tested out the playsets?
