It’s never dull collecting the Disney Pixar CARS. There is always something going on - and of course, when there’s nothing going on - there’s still something going on.
And apparently instead of designing CARS RV’s or the Cozy Cone Motel playset, the project group that made sure there was a Buzz & Woody in every [...]
You can debate whether Mattel simply doesn’t know what they’re doing or they are purposefully trying to sell you an extra card …
On the back of the RADIATOR SPRINGS FIRE DEPARTMENT card for Ramone & Flo, it lists them as themed “Race Rods.”

Collecting CARS is nirvana and we’re all a giddy as schoolboys and schoolgirls - life could not be finer, full of rainbows, 32-oz steaks and free parking … well, at least for the first 3 days … after that, we tend to get a little grouchier.
So, if collecting CARS or buying CARS [...]

ToyNewsInternational has a great closeup/PR Photo that solves some of the mystery of what may be exclusive about it.
At larger Comic Cons (aka: Convention), toy companies [...]
The Mini Adventures Screamin’ Banshee is coming in early May.
Here’s what the final box looks like (though Mattel may not have color corrected this file as the drawings show banshee as yellow but from the box art, he probably is yellow?)
The following are photos from Toy Fair (February 2008). It looks like they re-configured it [...]
Until major competitor, Hasbro - whose sales were up 14% in Q1, 2008 - Mattel posted a loss of $46.6 million … before you go blaming it on shortage of CARS, the problem is the Fisher Price division … sales in that division were down 13% percent

Since Sarge disappeared from the store shelves last summer, most eBay sellers have been content to sell the Desert Art 12 & 16-CARS back ones at a nice markup ($15-$25 dollars).
However, with the recent Mini & other releases, some less than ethical people are trying to take advantage of the situation by pawning off other [...]
Yes, we are are edging closer to an actual release date for the Motor Speedway of the South set with REAL evidence of the set. The “Sneak Peek” photos are up at the Hot Wheels Collectors Club (in the Red Line Club Sneak Peek section). Only PC users can see the photos so they are [...]
