Well, Walmart talks big about what’s coming but will they deliver to YOUR STORE? Apparently, later this week, WM will get some Mater Tall Tales – megasize CARS … again, unlike the days of yore (11 months ago) when virtually all WM’s would get a base amount of CARS (or other toys merchandise) so you […]

Naturally, the Japanese diecast company would rush out the Tokyo mater CARS first 🙂 A very nice 2-pack box. The Tomica CARS are 1:64 scale so narrower and slightly smaller … And of course, Tuner Mater … And the front side … The US version won’t be out for another 6+ months … As usual […]

Looking for these? Humm, they seem to have disappeared from the warehouse … wonder who could have eaten them all? You get one guess. More are coming … as long as other animals don’t get in the way …

In Canada … Mater Tall Tales singles have arrived. These are definitely the international ones with the multiple languages. Is that second one German? Humm, what is the direct translation of nurse – what are the words that comprise of “nurse” 🙂 Das Dos Pitty’s … As for the US, there’s good news & there’s […]

These are apparently in the Mattel warehouse … Next step?

Turns out that there are three differences in this box … Rescue Squad Chopper – same in 4-pack as the megasize Rescue Squad Chopper. Mia & Tia compared to Mia & Tia from SDCC? DIFFERENT. SDCC Mia & Tia on left. Much more luminescent paint – and maybe 2-3 more coats of paint. Mouth has […]

Well, they are in “Dan’s” backyard but they can be in your backyard soon … Both are in the first carton of Mater Tall Tales 4-packs … 4-pack comparisons? Rescue Squad Mater? – DIFFERENT. See updated post here. Rescue Squad Helicopter – same as Megasize Rescue Squad Helicopter. Mia & Tia compared to Mia & […]

Now officially called the Tokyo Mater: Ninja Knockout Track set. Comes with plastic Dragon McQueen and launcher … Of course, the coolest part is it comes with Mr. Crane … McQueen lands on the ramp on the ramp, triggers and trips over the two plastic blue cars and speeds on his way. The two plastic […]

The 2010 version of this … Will include a RANSBURG Dragon McQueen… At SDCC, we saw the “Dirty” version which will also see a release but maybe in a box set? Will this drift into your collection? Don’t drift away … Follow me! This is NOT Ransburg …

By the numbers for the Fall reset … Nothing really new but now you have it all on one graphic. Don’t have STORYTELLERS or MATER TALL TALE DPCI numbers as they will be on an endcap – different planogram. They are actually preserving space on the planogram for the 2009 Collector’s Guide. Most likely the […]
