Coming in 2015 – “John H.” sends along some early open pics … Coming as a 2-pack? With the other “Van’s.” & Van San … Segmented Mini and the new Desert Mini. They might’ve overdone what should be weeds – looks like Martian BRAIN … Too bad we didn’t get this expression. 🙂 In CARS […]

The Disney Store is having the last sale of 2014 – PLANES & CARS sets priced as clearance items.

The Escape From Frank playset is out. Thanks for the great pics, “Damien V.” Yep, Frank is plastic. Decent size … Tractor looks a lump of plastic.   You can find open pics of the prototype here. They all hook up together … photos of the open sets HERE. Target.com lists them but “not online” […]

Collector (and T5 reader) Javier J. sends along fun photos of his son and their CARS displayed at the Museum of Transportion in Puerto Rico. Nice! Thanks Javier J!  

Thanks “John H.” for the fun photos of “Hydro Wheels Frank.” If you hung onto your Mini Adventures, now you have a Frank to go with it. Frank looks like a little like a lobster also. Ummm, Frank in paprika butter … Definitely lobster… Thanks for the great pics, “John H!”

Thanks “ED” for the nice pics of the new 2015 2-packs. All are re-releases though some have not been out in a while – plastic tire Easy Idle has only been released as a launcher, no single, no 2-pack … and Easy Idle Pitty hasn’t been out as a single since ROR … though you […]
