In theory, the mail away offer for the 2 free Deluxe CARS is straightforward. Buy 5 CARS singles between 10/19 and 11/16, mail in your receipt and 5 cardbacks to the Mattel website address (fill out the form online), include P&H, and you’ll receive 2 free Deluxe CARS in a few days. The MAIN problem […]

“Fernando V.” offers up photos of his upgrade for the Kmart CARS Day mail-away … Yep, his came in the fabled white box treatment for Radiator Springs John Lassetire & Muggsy Liftsome. These are boxes generally created by Mattel for exclusives. In the last mail away for Ivan, nearly all just came on card in […]

If you look closely at the “official” photo of Silver Metallic Lightning McQueen on Kmart’s website, you’ll notice it’s DIFFERENT from the final release – the one in the case is essentially the exact same CARS 1 Lightning McQueen with the Rusteze logo on the back spoiler we all know and love, the only exception […]

If you mailed away your cardbacks, receipt and payment to Mattel’s East Aurora address, you should have already received or are getting the Deluxe CARS mailed out (a little early than listed). Thanks for the great photos, Rob (My 6 Kids). Muggsy is HUGE. He is the Andre the Giant of Pitty’s. Muggsy Liftsome and […]

Well, a mysterious listing might portend a Kmart CARS Day #11? It’s a Deluxe – oversized case assortment listed as a Kmart Exclusive.

Remember, it now starts at 9 AM, Not 11:00 AM. Yes, your local time zone so fuel up early – either you will face a madhouse of Mardi Gras like crowds fighting over a few cases of CARS or Ghost Town USA in your local Kmart USA. If you have never been, arrive slightly before […]

“John H.” spotted this new CARS-PLANES pallet at Kmart … If gardening is not by toys, you may need to wander over. Plus Hydro CARS and Stunt Racers (including Jorg, hard to find for those interested). Keep in mind, none of these are on the Buy-5-Get-2-Deluxe CAR promotion eligible list of qualifying purchases. Thanks for […]

Collectors of the Kmart CARS Day posters will be ever so slightly disappointed … Ta-da! Collect ’em all! At least it’s 2-color. And a poster fitting the CARS Day #10 extravaganza … event … cart in the aisle that this is. Hopefully it’ll at least be a cart in the toy section. So, just to […]

Do you feel lucky, well do you ****? Now, most ecommerce don’t operate by the Dirty Harry principle of customer service but we are taking about Kmart here … Okay, these are listed as “out of stock” – undoubtedly listed because Mattel promised one more 2-pack shipment but it never made it out to US […]
