The mystery direction of the Toys R Us exclusive 3-packs look to be pointed in another direction … When last we heard, the 3-packs from CARS 2 was moved under the TRU exclusive heading. So, naturally, the question was whether the latest listed 3-packs would ever make it out but some new actions/in-actions have change […]

3-Packs are listed as Toys R Us only item now … will we still get the next 3-packs as last listed or will they be different? It seems the 3-packs are scheduled for around Christmas time so in theory, all the deluxe (oversized) in each package will be out by then so the 3-packs may […]

Toys R Us is having a nice sale – 4 for $10 on CARS 2 diecast … (you must buy 4) … nice if they got the new single cases D or E … not so much if it’s Finn, Lightning & Francesco. And a surprise, if I told you that someone has stolen something […]

The Toons are now called CARS TAKE FLIGHT – for 2012, we’ll get diecasts from AIR MATER & MOON MATER. These first releases are all from Moon Mater. Autonaut Lightning McQueen – nicely done, all the details seem to be in place … 2 in the case. Autonaut Mater – also 2 in the case. […]

Surprise, there are no new Action Agent listings and Target has begun the first phase of mark downs. These are pretty much the wholesale costs of the 2-packs and the singles so Target is hoping some large white & yellow signs will entice you so they quasi break even … not counting the retail space […]

CASE L of Lights & Sounds has also arrived. There’s nothing else new in the case (2 Spy Finn’s, 1 Finn, 2 Lightning, 2 Mater, 2 Francesco’s and 3 Darrell with headphones). Thanks for the nice pics & info, Rob’s Palace of Disney CARS. He has it in stock. Thanks, Rob!  

2-Packs, now re-named “Movie Moments” have arrived in CASE K. Well, if nothing else – we get our money’s worth on Acer’s helmet. That is one ginormous helmet. There are 3 in the case. Ka-Ciao Lightning McQueen is technically new but it is the thinnest slice of the word new … you get Lightning McQueen […]

Based on the Kmart CARS on cards available in the backdoor marketplace, the signs point to only 8 CARS in the 24-pack Kmart CARS case coming in June. “John in MO” got the case assortment from a backdoor seller. It looks plausible. The original listing implied all 11 racers plus the 2 regular CARS would […]

Thanks “Actmcar (Dan)” for the find and the nice pics. This box set has been listed since last December but has finally arrived. It also has a name … “Street of Japan.” I was bruised and battered and I could’nt tell .. What I felt I was unrecognizable to myself … after I saw the […]

Thanks “Hostile Takeover Banker” for the early find and great pics – thanks! There are 7-packs listed for Target US but the actual contents and the names were unknown but presumably this will arrive in the US in the Fall or Christmas time. This is the first time Sally has been/will be available since 2010 […]
