Sorry for the delay in posting... coming down with COVID at Christmas time was a tough situation... we are on the mend... we are back at work.

Given that we are around five weeks from Christmas, the Cars in the UK is in a sorry state.

Disney Stores - After a brief restock of 2018-2019 Cars, they are getting a second batch of the first 2020 case.

Smyths - They appeared to have o/d'd on the Metallic Marilyn case! Lots of them in all stores!

ASDA - I have only seen a couple, but many reports of European clip strip Cars including Kurt.

Sainsburys - Reducing toy section. Cars 3 mostly only available through Argos!

Tesco - Had a few 2018 cars last time I looked.

Morrisons - Nothing?

Toymaster and Entertainer - A few sale items!

Bentalls - No longer stocking Cars as Mattel UK not promoting Cars any more!

Hamleys - Had a few 2018 Cars. Said that Mattel UK haven't got any so is that the end in the UK?

I hope we'll see a more widespread release of this Steel Blue Jackson storm, boogity and VANDANCE... I agree that it is a challenge to obtain during this first release due to Toys R US closing in the US, UK, and Europe... I don't know details about a specific release but it makes sense that it would be released in the next 2 to 3 weeks when you consider that Christmas is a little over 5 weeks away.

[VANDANCE]

Yes I agree, that’s a cracker and it had to be part of a promo- which will make it very unobtainable for those who don’t have TRU stores in their area any more...,

Mail call... October 28, 2019... I received a Steel Blue Jackson Storm from musicnywu1 who contacted someone in Malaysia to purchase the Cars needed to get this Car which is currently only a Toys R US Promo Car in Malaysia.

Here's part of an eBay package containing the Halloween Doc Hudson Car... thanks to Rhalf (DaFickser) for the eBay link for a complete set at a decent price... I now have a complete set of the Halloween Cars.









The plastic hook on the Doc Hudson has never been lifted up... I'll probably sell/trade my extra Cruisin' McQueen and Ramone Halloween Cars.
