        I just found the Stunt Ramp Getaway playset with Rod Redline but that's not as cool as what lovemini found.

              Dropped my son and his children off at a friend's house this afternoon and then decided to make a short road trip, never expecting success...

              Carla and Crew Chief:


              cardback:


              Fillmore with headset and yet another McQueen with racing wheels:


              Cars2 calendar (found at Books-A-Million):




              2 packs opened up:






              I also picked up a Miguel Camino launcher for cvc1968 at Toys R Us, as well as the trading cards with Chocolate Lightning McQueen - it was nice to buy 12 packs of trading cards and get 4 complete sets (2 are going to GOMATERGO)... I'll post pictures of the trading cards later.

                Wow nice, my missus is beetle mad, so i think its safe to say the Blue beetle (fly for Cars 1) will now be accompanied by a bigger pit crew beetle.. (All of which will be in her beetle car) :P

                    The crew chief 2 packs are $7.99 plus tax in the stores... I've only seen them in 1 of 3 Kmart stores I've been to... I found them at one 50 miles from home yesterday... there are 4 in a case of 12 movie moments (the other 8 are the McQueen with Racing Wheels/Fillmore with headset)... I'm sure I'll be making other road trips in the coming weeks in search of them and I will try to help as many as I can - I probably need at least 12 more to help those I normally help out.

                    And L33t0nG - I think it's awesome that your missus enjoys Beetles to the point that she keeps them in her car... Support from a spouse/significant other/partner is important.

                        Lol, well it was tense to start with, known her for about 9 years now, been together for 4 years, i'd say it took a year or so to break it to her, But, i shown her the beetle, brought it her as a gift one day She loved it, i showed her the movie, and she loved it, She's Dyslexic too, so Mater is her alter-ego She loves him. So since then she's more of a fan than me, Mater Tall Tales (Cars Toons) is her domain, Even traveling in Oz we shipped over as much as we could Having a K-Mart & Target is a god sense t Cars collectors! We need them here in the UK, TRU/Argos/Disney stores just not cutting the mustard :P

                        P.s my perseption of my missus isn't great so far, so she hasn't got wonky eyes, with a limp, piss sack, and a guide dog :P She is a beaut..

                            He is Catart, he did a lot of amazing custom cars, this Dracula Mater is the one in Sam's Paris show. Good work, but 165 EUR is too much to me. I will wait factory ones.

                                Finds: 7/23/11

                                Made a 180 mile circuit to and around most of Dayton (Ohio) this morning... Stopped at 6 Kmart, 2 Walmart, and 3 Target stores... found a few things...

                                1 of 6 Kmart stores had this:



                                I bought 1... I saw and left the $52.99 playset and the Action Agents Battle Station..

                                2 of 6 Kmart stores had these:







                                Because the 2 packs were $8.99 plus tax, I bought all 7 Carla and 4 of 15 Fillmore/McQueen packs... And all 6 Kmart stores had several Kmart 6 Cars at the $3.99 price.

                                1 of 3 Target stores had something new:


                                I left all 8 of them... I had 1 in my hands that I was going to purchase, but I ended up putting it back on the shelves... I have a Frank coming from lovemini... but can't see paying $32.09 for 1 new Car (Frank), 1 second Car (Lewis) and 5 pegwarmers... if they go on clearance I may get one.

                                I also opened a great package I received from my friend dad2spies...



                                The loose one goes to my grandson Austin...

                                No sign of the Metallic paint Jeff Gorvette or the Chaos in London 5 packs at the one Toys R Us that I went to - the manager thought they'd be in 2 weeks from now...

                                I think I'm close to being done helping friends I regularly help with Carla 2 packs and can hopefully help out some new friends...
