The new Target 4-packs, the now named Race Day FAN 4-CAR Gift Set has arrived in the US (well not in every store). The main difference with the US one is of course, the ONLY AT TARGET snipe-sticker. Clutch Foster is a new casting/mold.  While he does look a little like aspects of the last […]

“New” Toys R Us only exclusive Radiator Springs Classic CARS 1 diecasts have popped up in stores. “New,” in the sense that they do not appear on any official lists yet. Thanks for the heads up & nice photos, “John H.” King & Check have already been released so the other 6 shown are “new” […]

“Celso” steps into the Target Wayback machine … BOOING … what month is it? The questions raised from seeing this case are almost equally scary – does Mattel still have this case left in the warehouse? After about a year? Or did Target finally sell enough to pull this out of overstock? YIKES! Thanks for […]

I forgot that Mariela P. & Julia B. were kind enough to represent T5 for the opening of the Petersen Museum CARS exhibit and took some great photos … including the prototypes of the Convoy Brothers … And good news, they are not mucho mondo plastic but LOTS and LOTS of zinc! We can thank […]

We still don’t have the complete info yet such as when they are arriving but the Toons 3-packs are Walmart exclusives and they are $15.97. One of the 3-packs is called THE CONCERT so it seems pretty likely it will include 3 TOON CARS from HEAVY METAL MATER – probably Heavy Metal Mater, Heavy Metal […]

I guess Lorri R. & family were feeling bad that much hate was directed at Finny McMissile so she & they decided to build an extra cool pinewood derby version! Of course, they pretty much know what they are doing – last year’s was the extra cool Jeff Gorvette … Good luck!

I do not hate the Micro Drifters but I think the “normal” pricing on them will be their death knell – $6 for 3 is at the far end of pricing that will garner much interest … they should have been a 2-pack for $1.99 or if you’re going to do $6 at retail, the […]

It was hard to tell if these were still coming but it looks like 2 new 4-packs have arrived in Australia at Kmart. Thanks for the great photos and heads up “OzzieMum.” It looks like in Australia they are not a Target exclusive but here in the US, they still continue to be. This set […]

Thanks for the nice photo, “Dolly P.,” we won’t ask what you have to pay. 🙂  🙁

There were Toon 3-packs listed as coming back later this year but no singles or oversized listed – however “JD” says there are Wrestling Toons listed – and they might be coming back as soon as for the next boys toys reset, coming after Valentine’s Day … The 4 oversized Deluxe Toons on the list […]
