Yes, the Launcher CASE that Mattel skipped is shipping this week though some cases have already arrived at some Target stores … Jason T. was kind enough to send along photos of his hunt earlier – from Target – oddly, he found an international carded one mixed in … Thanks Jason T. – enjoy being […]

While we had a list back in January for the next Mini 6-Packs: Piston Cup Dinoco Highway 66 We finally know what’s in them … mostly … and they’re surprisingly better than first thought … it’s only a mini preview as Amazon has only put out incomplete photos … (link to Amazon – though not […]

So, the revised CASE H now looks like this. Not a spectacular improvement but an extra Patti in the case trumps the Ferrari F430 in just an Italian chase packaging anyway. The oddity is that of course, the rule was that once a CAR was released as a CHASE CAR, it would NEVER return as […]

The eyes have it – CASE B … But don’t forget the rest – don’t latch that door just yet … The summer of love? … or hate? 🙂 And a three pack coming in ’10 …

Eckert, chairman and chief executive officer of Mattel. “We’ve made good progress on several strategically important fronts, and will continue to manage costs and expenses in light of […]

Well, not exactly ‘new’ NEW … but new on Race O Rama cards. These will eventually make it back to the US but no real timetable as they’re now a Target exclusive. They will definitely be back by Autumn here in the US but maybe sooner … for a full list of which cards are […]

Okay, it’s not terribly exciting, it’s Octain Gain & Jerry Recycled 🙂 “Fiddlehead” says she got an email her Jerry Recycled & Octane Gain Haulers are on their way. The big question is whether the next scheduled Haulers will arrive early for Target? It’s possible that CASE E will arrive within the time window that […]
