the last 2 pics are of the same card jonj,they are TRU exclusive movie doubles.the yellow tab on the side you pull back and forth to change the image on the card.
i believe there are only 8 in the entire series but don't quote me on it as you don't see that many of them

Nice additions, Jason... Flea & Flik is quite nice... and the others - they were TRU exclusives - loads of them on the pegs for a long time... I never did buy any, even when they went on clearance for $5.98... the local flea market has a couple of them but they are not cheap and they have price tags on the front of the card... I've thought about picking up a couple of them.

I have a photo of the Ramone one in the article at the following linK:

I was asked to upload these by jonj... Here are photos of the new Miles/cleaning pittys Movie Moments:





It looks like Miles is a variant - look how the roof is a different shade of blue:


He sent me a picture of the cardback but it's not showing up properly... I'll work on it later.


Thank you for the photos, jonj!

Bought Metallic Francesco last night in TRU. They had 5 on the pegs and it was pretty tough to find one with the least amount of paint defects.

!

the change happened in the switch over from the old cut card to the new straight card,you are able to find him on both variations of cardback.
notice how the squares have been rotated 90 deg. also.

awesome score as well

Received a great package in the mail today from JMDL Toys... Take Flight Burnt Autonaut McQueen and Mater Hawk... and this... 2013 Singles case B... I'm glad to get the Cars, but several of the cardbacks were very damaged when the case was packed... Good thing I'll be opening many of these...
















(No idea why this photo won't post in the proper orientation... Hmmm...)



More photos later, including some of them opened, in my Collector's thread post.

Many thanks, JMDL Toys!

great score cac1959

shame on the cardbacks though.
is'nt it funny how these mean so much to us and are probably worthless to the people who work in these factories.

[DeceptiCog72283]
