I bought the only remaining Quick Changer, Lightning McQueen with pop-out tongue, at Meijer this morning...I had been moving it from the singles pegs for the last 3 weeks... they kept moving it back... with tax, it was 75 cents.

Not my finds...but someone must have found them!!
A member of T5 has posted up some Radiator Springs Classics for trade.
They included:
Mario Andretti
Dinoco Chick
Gold Ramone
Has anyone else seen these or know of any more Classics on the way??

they are a fiver, maybe now it looks like 6 and a tenner
the prices for singles have now doubled since 2006, what a rip off.

is it really worth the price, no of course not, think i,ll be very selective from now on

pirelliboy -

That's good news that Tesco have taken the plunge and decided to sell these (and no doubt the rest of the Cars 2013 range). However, the bad news implication is that it's now unlikely that we'll see the remaining Cars 2 singles 47 - Fabrizio to 50 - Sir Harley Gassup released in the UK mainstream shops. I was hoping that because of the price rise, places like Tesco might delay the introduction of the new series and continue with the Cars 2 stuff (to the finish line).

If the standard singles are now £6 GBP, how much are the Deluxe and Movie Moments (if we ever see them)? £10 GBP?

last time i was in tesco i noticed an unopened box on top of the display units, i asked if i could look at it and a guy in the store said no they are not for sale yet, when he went away i climbed up and got the box down and opened it and got out the Otis and Alex Vandell i needed then put the box back and went and paid - Im hardly up there with Dillinger but it was kinda fun lol.

Nice find, pirellliboy... were you able to purchase them even if they weren't for sale? Or did you have to leave them on the shelf?

I was able to buy them

I found the silver racers in Tesco tonight. On the top shelf and not for sale yet. Scanned at £6 each.
