Hope your international and domestic ordered Rescue Squad Mater’s are winging their way to you … Shipping confirmation email notices are going out …

Other than real framers and their real John Deere’s, is there another diecast line where farm equipment can cause riots in the aisles? 🙂 And now, the brilliant El Materdor Bulldozer … and like the Tractors & Showgirls, sign us up for a bunch … Bully for Bulldozers! Push it … push it real good […]

The Mater Tall Tales megasize – surprise first release of the new lineuop – seems most have only been found them at TRU?
