1:43 Ebbro Fujitsu TOM’S Supra GR.A 1990

This Supra was one of my most inexpensive Ebbro models I have purchased and yet is a great piece to have gotten. The detail is perfect and the old school flavor is there in all its glory!

Disney CARS TARGET HOLIDAY EXCLUSIVES

With Christmas quickly approaching Disney/Pixar along with Mattel have got their Christmas CARS release out and about at Toys R Us, Disney Stores and at Target. The Holiday CARS include Snow Day Sally, Holiday Spirit Sheriff, Holiday Hot Shot Lightning McQueen, Decked Out Doc Hudson, and Christmas Crusier Ramone. Target secured a 6 pack box set of all the above CARS but the 6th is the DEAL BREAKER MUST HAVE! (REINDEER MATER) Reindeer Mater is Jacked up on real rubber snow tires accented with snow and dons a cool antler tipped snow hat. A+++ creativity from the Disney CARS team at Mattel. The singles are good but the Box set is better! I will let the pictures do the talking!

I got Snow Day Sally in single form for my daughter since opening the set at the moment isn’t going to happen.

The Target Exclusive Box Set:

They could have packaged this as a single and shipped 20 cases to each store and I am willing to wager they would sell out in hours!

1:24 Spark Aston Martin DB9R pickups

I received an email from an online diecast dealer that they were liquidating their inventory and marked a lot of items down 60%. I headed over to their site and grabbed a few items for a fairly good price. These DB9R’s are gorgeous. One happened to get broken up pretty bad during shipment, but with a steady hand and some monster monkey super glue I got it back together. It looks great from far but closeup inspection will tell the tale. These both are hand made ,resin built, 1:24 scale models by Spark. Not only is the detail superb but the weight it AMAZINGLY HEAVY!Terrific additions to my collection!

This was the one that I received broken to pieces

Disney CARS Target Exclusive Story tellers Cousins and Showgirls

The newest release of Storyteller singles have been popping up at stores across the United States. I was able tyo grab a set of the show girls Laverne,Rhonda, and Sheila as well as the cousins Cletus,Buford and Jud. Nice looking cars and kind of cool since they are something away from the norm. I am still patiently waiting the 3 pack versions to see the offerings.

NEW Disney CARS CASE D and E Lenticulars and Chase CARS

The flurry of Disney CARS Lenticular assortments Case D and Case E have been hitting various areas in various stores across the United States and Europe. The Case D contents have the the usual Lenticular “My Eyes Move” card back but with Case E that changes. The Case E card backs are now in the Final Lap Motif as well a HUGE change in the eyes. Instead of blinking or winking motions. These new “eyes” are ones that “follow” you. They are actually 2 sets of eyes hidden with the lenticular slides in the windshield. However some are very poorly done where you can actually see 3 to 4 eyes at a given angle. Pretty Freaky! I grabbed all the newer stuff including the chases (King with Piston Cup and Ransberg Darrell Cartrip) The Ransberg chase is pretty weak in my opinion. It is about as exciting and any of the “chase packaging” releases. But you can be the judge of that.

Disney CARS NEW Haulers, Piston Cup Racers Mini Adventures and a Lunch Box

A lot of new product is SWIRLING around from store to store. You can find the goods from the most obvious stores as well as the obscure. In the last week or so I have come across a VAST amount of new release items as well as items that have ben out but just have now hit this area.It has been a very expensive mont6h already!

Grabbed a pretty cool CARS lunch Box

Nabbed a Gil and FINAL LAP packaging WALLY Hauler

I also found a few Mini Adventure 2 packs I was missing:

Shiny Wax and RPM 64 Piston Cup Racers

Hot Wheels, Johnny Lightning and Matchbox Grabs

In the last few weeks I have came across a few eye catching models and bought them. Here are my latest Hot Wheels, Matchbox and Johnny Lightning Pick Ups.

A JL Error with an 1969 Camaro RS/SS in a 1959 Chevy Impala IMPALA package.

Disney CAR TOON Dr. Mater and High Dive Mater

The new CARS Toon Maters have been rapidly hitting all the stores. I was able to get a hold of High Dive Mater and Dr. Mater. Very nicely detailed and solid weight to them. These two offerings make the CARS Toon line sensible in ways. Very nice transition from a animated short to a diecast replica.

2009 Disney CARS Kmart Collector Event #3 CARS Closeups

Finally after weeks of different things going on, I was able to set up the photo box and get some shots of the K Marty X Disney CARS collector day #3 exclusive Rubber tire racers.
