Happy Thanksgiving!
I love the holidays. I am very fortunate to have disposable income to buy Cars and other things this time of year when there are those less fortunate out there. I have such a wonderful family. I am very thankful for my readers as well. I just want to take a moment to wish you [...]
Case C Tumbleweed McQueen, White Walls McQueen, Trunk Fresh Pitty and Chase Snot Rod
Mattel is trying to get as much Cars product out before the holidays as possible. For collectors, that means more Cars under the tree and a lighter wallet. So as you might expect, case C is coming right on the heels of case B. New Cars in case C include Tumbleweed McQueen, White Walls McQueen, [...]

The Cars Glue Situation Delaying New Shipments
I’m seeing reports coming in that the Cars glue situation has become a serious problem. What I’m referring to is the lack of glue on Cars cardbacks causing the Cars to fall off of the cards on the pegs. It’s being reported that new shipments are being delayed while Mattel corrects the problem. Hopefully, they [...]
