I agree with lobot72 when it comes to the choices that are made as to which characters are being put into these sets. If they are truely geared more toward the collectors in the Cars community, then they really should consider putting in the last few remaining racers that haven’t been released yet outside of the Speedway of the South set. I would love to see them make a set with Tach-o-mint, Apple car, Gask-it’s and Sidewall Shine. The last one has been released as a TRU exclusive, but we haven’t seen the first three yet.

The price of Cars toys on ebay has come down quite a bit. The first set of K-Mart collector days Cars that came out was getting $20 to $30 per car, but I have seen this current set go for less than $10 per car. I don’t know if its the economy or if this toy line is losing steam, but Cars don’t command the prices they once did on ebay.

Its good that most of these sets have at least 2 cars that were exclusives in them, but since the main target group for these are collectors I would think that putting Lightning McQueen in everyone of them is kind of pointless. I would much rather have 1 new car and 3 former Speedway of the South exclusive cars. I don’t know about anyone else, but I’m really tired of Lightning McQueen being put in every set, they could at least put Tongue McQueen in one of these.
