“Matt Martin” sends us nice finds from the UK. Brian Park Motors … You can check out more OPEN PICS from this post. And welcome the nicest and largest accessory CAR … (though we could do a weigh-off against Stanley). Chuck ‘Choke’ Cables … He does look vaguely familiar … But great camera. CLOSE UP! […]

For those who have been looking for a nice display for your Mattel Disney Pixar Piston Cup racers, M2 offers an option that is great on pricing for a solid Acrylic Display Case – though not 100% perfect … The 5-pack sells for around $5.50 so basic pricing is great. But as you can also […]

I guess we are officially out of topics to discuss about CARS 1 … “Buckland Blowouts” sent me a telegram. I was sure they stopped telegraphs in 2006 but that didn’t stop “BB.” Then some Kodachrome’s followed. I even got a diskette with his findings. There exists a Bumper Save variant. And when I say […]

The UK Disney CARS site is offering a new free two-side PDF poster to print, use as a wallpaper or a checklist … Click on the poster or the text link to go directly to the PDF page. If you want to visit the Disney CARS UK site, click HERE. Thanks for the heads up, […]

Here’s the updated Final Lap checklist to reflect everything everything “NEW” released so far … And the next four coming next month plus all the other un-numbered “classic” non-moving eye “NEW” CARS released so far … UPDATE – Somehow the numbering didn’t sort correctly above but fixed. The last block of CARS are on the […]

If you can’t find the Mattel oversized-deluxe Dinoco Heli, the Disney store one will be a nice placeholder … Thanks for the nice pic, “Micky.” Though, of course, strictly speaking, the Dinoco Heli should be large enough to fit Mater and presumably Tex, King, Mrs. the King and the Dinoco Crew Chief? Thanks, “Micky.”

Since we seem to have spend the weekend in the comments section on Lizzie, here’s a recap on the apparition known as Lizzie … Hey, everyone, come quick, there’s a picture on the internet that looks just like me. And obviously these dates are intended as a general guideline – each region can be completely […]

Last week, we covered collecting the Desert Art Series 1 & Desert Art Series 1.5 CARS “mint on card.” It’s hard to really even agree what constitutes a complete set – 15? 16? 20? all the way to 48? In late 2006 – Mattel switched design motifs … SUPERCHARGED! And the cardback design sort of […]

The WM 4-packs were a pretty good deal at $10 for 4 “Townies,” but are a really great deal at the clearance pricing people have found for anywhere from $4 to $7. For newbie collectors, they are great as many are hard to find in the classics non-moving eyes versions. This 4-pack is easiest to […]

“Rippers” in the UK has found the newest CHASE … It’s Dinoco Lightning with Celeb Signature Plate … It’s a new eye expression … Thanks, “Rippers.”
