Posted in May – thought it would closer to Christmas time but TRU seems to have it in stock. From the looks of it, you try and launch MINI SPINOUT (TIRES) McQUEEN out of Flo’s over Sheriff & the Impound Yard, careful of the telephone wires and into the back to Mack to escape … […]

Coming this holiday season, more CARS to buy … There are three 4-packs of Piston Cup racers coming … And yes, now that they are calling him Spare O Mint, I’ll list him as such … Maybe they will fix Vitoline’s mustache … and Rev N Go is also scheduled as a launcher so we’ll […]

The other Lightyear Launcher was (take a wide guess) … Lightning McQueen! But not a bad assortment – presumably in a box of 6 with two each. When […]

Several people have asked if they are “saving,” the Kmart CASE K case for their collection or for resale down the line, if they should keep it sealed.

As the cases are arriving from Illinois to your doorstep, the correct to incorrect ratio is not high enough – right, now, as I’m writing this – from those who voted in the poll (see right side of the page), it’s running about 80-20 … 🙁 The evidence is not very conclusive yet but here’s […]
