The international cases are different than the US case assortments … Kabuto is out … as “Dolly P.” sends us this pic from Germany. He looks the same as the Kabuto from the Toon’s series … but if you missed out, you will get a chance to get him fairly soon as a CARS 2 […]

The recent Kmart CARS Day #8 offering were Silver Metallic CARS. Probably Ransburg but since Mattel is no longer using the phrase, Ransburg, we’ll just call ’em Metallic. (At one point, they also called them Zamak but that appears to the raw metal body polished with a clearcoat … so maybe that Kmart CARS Day […]

The first Ultimate Chase is out … and people have questions. Yes, there are Swedish words on the front & the back of the card. I presume it’s to convey that you had to hunt the world over to find him … and you found him in Al’s Leksak Ladugården just outside of Stockholm. Turn […]

The first ULTIMATE CHASE is here … Yes, it’s in Swedish. It is Supervanlig! (YES, this is the US card). And yes, the ratio appears to be 1:1 – so if ordered a case G, unless they fouled up the packing, you get the ULTIMATE CHASE “Flash” in every case. So, how many Flash’s are […]

Yes, in theory there is a CASE F listing but Mattel’s Warehouse shows ZERO in stock and ZERO coming. In effect, not coming soon. It was an oddly configured case and probably configured when there was other 2-packs and Movie Moments coming but now that Movie Moments are on the back burner and 3-packs canceled, […]

While we know what the world’s second oldest profession is, counterfeiter or scammer is probably about 13th so it’s probably literally older than time itself. “This is the finest flint on the continent! It cuts, it stabs, it scraps fatty tissue from bearskin like there’s no tomorrow in Pangaea! Trust me! I swear it to […]

If you dozed off from January to June, you didn’t miss much but now it’s feast on the beast of famine time … and there was much rejoicing? CASE E is out and hopefully you are finding them at retail – keep in mind CASE G which is right on the tail of CASE E […]

The CARS Space Mission Adventure DVD Set with Roger the Space Shuttle (and plastic Autonaut Mater) is out. Roger the Space Shuttle has wheels that rolls and lights on the boosters … plus (plastic version) of Autonaut Mater fits inside. But wait, there’s more … you also get the DVD with two animated shorts, Moon […]

The most important thing to note for this in-store event is the time is now 9 AM and not 11 AM as it’s been for the previous 7 times!! So, don’t be late, mate! Also, it’s likely they made a lot fewer diecasts than last time so in many cases, it might not be as […]

The CASE G listing has been released – it is clearly the greatest and most worthy CARS 2 case released in a year!* It contains a bevy of new releases and perhaps THREE CHASE CARS in the assortment! First, it does definitely contain 3 new CARS … Okay, two are technically repaints but that purple […]
