If you can’t wait for the release, you can make your own – if you have the skills like “Mack Me Bucko.” It’s not a party everyday when you remove the hat. Alex Hugo. Moderfied Mater. Pretty darn cute. From the short. Once listed as coming. Big Al (the real Big Al). It’s just a […]

“Wesley M” sends along his collection – pretty much what your collection should look like 2006-2014. 🙂 I think Disney Rewards offered a CARS clock? Yep, Frank & Chuy should get their own shelves. 🙂  A skosh more room for CARS 2. Gotta have Green Sheriff to be complete. These are not all the pics […]

As some of the Mattel Disney Pixar CARS MSOS diecasts are cracking up … Photos here in this previous post. Mattel Consumer Customer Service page has an email (and chat/phone link). I sent them an email that I was having problems with the diecasts from L4721-9993 aka: “Hot Wheels RLC Piston Cup Set.” Their response …  I […]

As the evidence is rolling in, it does NOT look good for the Motor Speedway of the South diecast CARS. They are definitely going south … the sad, the bad and the ugly. At first, it was thought it was just the Apple CAR – that it was a bad batch of white pigment/paint (see […]

Thanks for the nice pics, “John H.” Look, Clark, it’s another RV in the year of the RV’s! He’s not overly decorated but nice scale and details. Back held on with screws in case you wanna customize. It’s cousin Elvis! Different base and install. Doug RM. Nice.   Thanks for the great pics, “John H.”

Thanks for the great pics, “John H.” The “Transition Dinoco Lightning McQueen” has been floating around the back door parts of eBay. It is a mystery since it’s NOT on the 2015 poster and not part of the regular release, Since exclusives are not shown on the poster – presumably it’s an exclusive. My guess […]

Yesterday, we covered some scary self-destructing Apple diecast racer CARS … unfortunately, others have chimed in with more and different examples … While my diecast seems to be developing a rash, it has not come through the clear coat. These are “David V’s.” His seems to cracking and crackling through the clear coat. AND also […]
