What Happened to Cars at Toy Fair 2008?
Now that Toy Fair 2008 is behind us, it’s time to reflect and address the question that is on Cars collectors minds, what the hell happened to Cars at Toy Fair 2008? Okay, maybe that’s just the question on my mind. But after San Diego Comic Con last year and the upcoming list of Cars [...]
The Case of the Missing Blu-Ray Lightning McQueen
Well, there is a big discussion going on right now in the Cars collectors community. On November 4, 2007, I wrote about the Cars Blu-Ray movie coming out and the promotion for the Blu-Ray Lightning McQueen that was included with it. To recap, 15,000 Blu-Ray McQueens were made. To get them, you needed a code, [...]
Cars Hunt #022108
I stopped by Toys R Us in Knoxville, TN yesterday to look for Cars once again. Yet, I left very frustrated. Let me just say that they have a ton of World of Cars stuff, Movie Moments, single carded, 3 packs, gift packs and playsets. But all of it is old. I didn’t find one [...]
Cars Case G Out Now
I just received notice that Cars case G is starting to hit retailers now. The bad news about the G Cars assortment is that since Mattel changed it a few weeks ago, it includes no new Cars that have not been previously released. The good news is that if you have missed Charlie Checker, Dudley [...]

Cars Hunt #021808
Went by another Wal-Mart in Knoxville, TN today with no luck at finding any new Cars. This store was way worse than the one I went to last night. This one had no new Cars at all. They also did not have the new 4 sided aisle display. This sucks because I probably won’t be [...]
Cars Hunt #021708
Last night, Sunday, Feb. 17th, I was hunting for Cars at Wal-Mart in Knoxville, TN. They actually had a lot of Cars, but I didn’t find anything new that I didn’t have already. I am not a completist, so I don’t buy everything, but I have almost everything. The only thing new that I didn’t [...]
