Craig sends along a pic and says if you can’t wait for the US one, check out his Australia eBay auction … And yep, looks like he got his original name back – from the scene in the movie. The US case (when it shows up) will contain 3 “Funny Car Mater’s” 1-Queen … 2 […]

If you like your CARS in Easter Eggs … they’re back … Thanks, “Ev” for the nice pics! The actually hard to find Holley … Lightning – not as hard to find … but maybe he’s a 1-piecer now … if you’re cracking it open, let us know. Race Team Sarge – um, isn’t that […]

Minivan* & Airport Security Guard was actually listed twice on the 2-pack list which was a little odd … but by itself, hard to discern any greater meaning from it other than a mistake. But it was odd in that so far in CARS 2, each 2-pack/Movie Moment contained one common car released or merely […]

Walmart insiders report that Mater’s Secret Mission – AKA: Walmart 2-packs have been EOLed – End of Lifed. While the death of Color Changers is news, it’s a minor blip – this is a bigger story as there were a couple 2-packs scheduled for Fall so presumably they are canceled. Now, it might be that […]

Toys R Us insiders report in that Color Changers seem to have been given the designation EOL – aka: End of Life or aka: End of Line. Which of course means the line is canceled and it seems unlikely that another retailer will pick it up. We’ll never really get confirmation that it’s official but […]

From “Buckland Blowouts,” the arrival of Finn McMissile to the Dollar Store – though marked at $2 (aren’t they not supposed to have anything above $1?) It’s so nice they marked it twice? Apparently there are rumors there are 250,000 Finn’s, Lightning’s, Mater’s and Francesco’s arriving at the bargain bin very soon … so don’t […]

Again, nothing really new but closer to production look-sees … Dragster Mater Just in time for the Jubilee or the other way around … 🙂 Anyone else thinks we needs a Lights & Sounds version that plays this … Like you really another picture … Taia still not talking yet … Shouldn’t this be the […]

Nothing too revealing … but it’s still nice to see closer to production models versus long-ago prototypes … The biggest reveal is Lightning McQueen’s Biggest Fan … And his name-o is … If you bet on Cartney Brakin, you win. He is the little dude in the Lightning McQueen Pop Up Shop who faints upon […]

“Sam” decided not to wait for a plastic maybe-to-scale Micro Drifter series Colossus XXL Dump Truck from CARS 2 … So he carved one out of wood. I’m NOT kidding … Holy ****! This was displayed at Comic Com Paris. Too freakin’ amazing. It is to scale and … … oh yeah, he also made […]

Micro Drifters (3-packs, Colossus XXL “playset,” Mack Carrying case & Tokyo trackset) are coming May – for the Summer toy reset. There will also be a launcher … The 3-packs are listed as $5.99 including some Piston Cup racers from CARS! The Tokyo trackset is listed at $29.99 so the Colossus XXL dump truck and […]
