Well, if we can’t get retailers to buy two Micro Drifter playsets, put them together in one 2-pack – double the “fun” at 85% of the price! So, you do save a little if you’re interested in these two playsets, you get three “free” Micro Drifters (yes, you get 5 Micro Drifters but you normally […]

The new Walmart Spring Plan O Gram for CARS … From left to right, pretty straightforward … PEGS Diecast Singles (Mainline) – 8 Pegs, in theory – at least 2-3 cases. 2 Packs (Movie Moments) – 4 Pegs, in theory – 2 cases. Stunt Racers Micro Drifters Hydro CARS Mater Tall Tales (Toons Oversized) – […]

“John H.” founds these at Ralph’s (the supermarket). The egg shaped “try me” for rolling the Micro Drifter around is a nice touch … and I like the Easter bunny in the corner making it official. They’re not any cheaper per CAR than buying them in a 3-pack and these have all been released. So, […]

“In a licensing agreement announced this week, the Postal Service agreed to let fledgling apparel business Wahconah Group Inc. use various trademarks and the words “Rain, Heat & Snow” on clothing and accessories. The all-weather slogan refers to the agency’s unofficial motto: “Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stay these couriers […]

There are always about 75,000 Disney Pixar CARS items available on eBay – most are what you’d expect – and of course, the reason there are 75,000 items listed is that people are SERIOUSLY interested in Disney Pixar CARS from the obviously diecasts to pillows to random collectibles but some offerings are a swing and […]

The metallic Micro Drifter 8-pack is out … This was at a TRU – no exclusive sticker but like most CARS items, hard to tell if another retailer will buy it. It’s nice and it’s cute but spendy for 8 micro CARS – $21.99 … While it says 8 exclusive CARS, Mater looks like other […]

The Stunt Racer “Crank Launcher” with Stunt Racer Lightning McQueen (plastic). Interesting it’s sniped as “Kid-Powered.” 🙂 The other interesting snippet is it says “For Use with CARS Stunt Racers Only.” Is that a lie? Is it just to get you to pony up for the rest of the rest of the plastic Stunt Racer […]

The latest “Stunt Racer,” transporter is out – Andre, Raoul Caroule’s race hauler transporter. Thanks for the great pics, “John H!” It is nice that it seems to work with your Raoul diecast. And parked, it looks like a nice accompaniment/accessory. But I find the lack of details disturbing … I’m still leaning towards not […]

“Toyfountain” sends along these early pics of Silver/Chrome Metallic Rip Clutchgoneski … Presumably, he will be part of the mix at the next Kmart CARS Day – June, 2013. What else will we get since the other 10 racers have already been released as crome metallic CARS? Since the Hudson Hornet (sticker) Lightning McQueen (CARS […]

“John H.” understands the proper way to play with Micro Drifters – giant fistful’s of them … Shakopee has nothing on Radiator Springs Crazy Days – maybe they need a second hotel. Or LA traffic 3 AM on a Wednesday night. Particularly realistic are the random CARS going sideway, just like the real freeways in […]
