Yep, add the 2019 Made in Thailand Rip Clutchgoneski as an eyelid variant. Thanks for the heads up and photos, “Mark T.” Original Rip from 2011 … Now with black line eyelid … 2019 card.

The Disney Store 1:43 Rip Clutchgoneski is back in stock … And if you want to see where you stand in your Disney Store collection, the great “Unixed” Visual Checklist is here. Or if you want the Mattel single version with the entire case, it’s in CASE H with the CHASE, Francesca or its twin […]

There is a new mystery Rip Clutchgoneski listing. Of course, there is the single version of Rip already released (and coming back in cases coming in 2013). It’s widely presumed the next Kmart CARS Day (#10) will include a silver metallic Rip Clutchgoneski (June, 2013). But interestingly enough, a second Rip Clutchgoneski has been added […]

Thanks for the nice photos, “Rob’s Palace of Disney CARS,” it looks like the next wave (wave 4, CASE D?) is here … In addition to the cute Micro Drifter Rip, this might be the first release of regular Miguel Camino also leaving only Carla Veloso and Lewis Hamilton of the WGP racers yet to […]

Not much of a surprise, Pit Stop launchers will be updated to the new card design … only 6 are listed (not specific which racer) – in a perfect world, this would be one of the 6 … Well, anything is possible. We can probably presume Lightning & Francesco are 2 of the 6 … […]

There’s a new Walmart sidekick “sidecap” display that is essentially CASE B with 2 Rip Clutchgoneski’s … It was weird there was only one in the “normal” CASE B so this might be the reason, Mattel was afraid we would awash in Rip’s (AS IF) after this sidekick display hit post Christmas … so this […]

Thanks for the nice open pics, “John H.” He was a long time coming … it’s presumed he is the missing #36 CAR from CARS 2: Porto Cosa cards – reserved for him but never released on that card. It’s also presumed he was added last as comic-relief – he’s from a fictional country so […]

In case you missed it in the beautiful visual checklist photos from “Unixed,” Rip Clutchgoneski is back at the Disney Stores with a new background … They might as well slap a CHASE sticker on him – both releases seem to be limited … Not online – you have to try your Disney Stores that […]

So, Rip is going to appear as a Rip-stick pullback toy but not as a diecast? Why the hate? (the new rip stick cars but do not require a ripstick) …

Arrived in Europe after a nice ocean voyage … Clearly the mold is tested and squeezing out diecasts …   So, now you can duck away from a tour of the Louvre (what, like it’s gonna close down soon?) and run down to le toy shop. okay, you do have to pay a skoosh more […]
