    Great finds, David&davidmcqueen, carslover, and KK&PP_Cars... and I agree with you, KK&PP_Cars - Darrell Cartrip with headset is already a pegwarmer in western Ohio and central Indiana... Sputter Stop and Edwin Kranks seem to be pegwarmers as well... Mama Bernoulli and Chase Miles with hood up are selling quickly.

      Of all cars to be pegwarming... as long as it ain't Finn, I have no problem welcoming new friends to the shelves. Ha ha.

        Every time I see an Edwin on the pegs, I want to curse the people for not buying him. He is awesome! I wish I could make customs because he is begging for it. Make some Motorama Bros!

            I was in BJ's yesterday and saw 2013 cars for the first time. There were very few left, so I'm not sure what they will have, but another store to add to the hunt.

              Interesting .. were they in a tray or on clip strips? When Cars 2 first came out, I found Porta Corsa cards there for on clip strips ... they did not have peg hanger holes cut into them. they were really nice looking cards.

                  They were on the clip strips like last time, but regular cards this time. The Bjs around here had the Porta Corsa cards that you are talking about last fall.

                        That's an international carded Popemobile! What is that doing in the US? That's a very rare car, excellent find.

                        Just to confuse the issue, TRU (and maybe other stores too?) in the UK have got the Pope Pinion IV and Popemobile Deluxe case. On Saturday, there were a few US-carded Popemobiles at a TRU on my travels (Southampton). Quite a few in fact. The Queen is also becoming quite a common sight at Smyths on a US card.

                        The US gets international cards and the UK gets US carded Deluxe! How does that work?

                          Great find! A few more have recently been advertised on Amazon.co.uk.

                          Why can't Mattel get these out on time?

                            In the second picture down, there is a JEFF GORVETTE. He's not supposed to be released until case 999L. Have you any idea what case he was in, as Mattel are swapping cars and cases like crazy at the moment?

                            Super Chases being found at retail in the US. Whatever next?

                            Met on T5AD hinted that Jeff may not be coming out as a single as there was a double-pack with John Lassatire on the way, possibly instead, but the numbering on the two-pack didn't make sense, unless Mattel are considering another sub-series of double-packs?

                            It would be great if they did, sort of an expansion of the current 2013 card series!

                            • Jeff Gorvette on the short checklane card has been at TRU for over a month or so.

                              • the brislington toys r us had about 5-6 popemobiles yesterday

                                and seeing taia and taco mater going for about £10-12 on amazon when i paid £25 each reminds me to just stick to what i get in shops and not pay over the odds on ebay
