      spotted a cool mater bubble bath today in band m for 3.99,
      spotted it later in superdrug for 6.99 on a buy 3 for 2 promo

      spotted cars 2 rubbers in the works, these were the car shaped ones not the bits of rubber with a pic on

      I suppose I should mention that these are erasers, as I have a feeling that r.....s means something else in the good old u s of a!!!!

                      Case F boogity - along with 3 Hi-Low Ramones. I didn't realise that Ramone was also in Case G with Max so that ex-plains it...

                      Great find on the 3 for 2 aswell - I think Argos still have that offer too...

                        Thank you Boobyjack - I was able to find two Chet Boxkarr at TJ Maxx in pretty good shape. No Paul Valdez, great think about living in Georgia, we have retail stores everywhere.

                          The erasers are in The Entertainer. I see them. Dont know what muppet does the pricing but 2 pack for £2 or 4 pack for £5, something aint right there. Even asked a staff member and she couldnt explain it either. On my travels today Toys R Us finally had the Team crew sets all £9.99. they had bumper save, Octain Gain, leakless and HTB. They also had the Team hauler sets at £14.99 and loads of them (mack, Nitroade, octain gain). Shame could see where they picked off the Target stickers. Something tells me we are being ripped off again. You just know they are Target overstock and Mattel have sold them for nothing to Toys R Us UK. And the Max Schnell is starting to show up at Wilkinsons although I went to 2 today with no luck. Wish I could find a dinoco team hauler set as Im missing that one. If anyone wants the team crew sets or anything else let me know. Happy hunting

                            My first eBay purchase in several months arrived this morning...

                            1 set of Lewis Hamilton and Carlo Maserati singles ($32 shipped from Philadelphia)


                            Here's Lewis:


                            Here's Carlo:


                            No more of these until I find them at retail or work out a trade for something I've already got... probably not much new until Kmart day on October 22...

                            Congratulations on finding the team crew sets and team hauler sets at TRU in the UK... the original Target prices were $19.99 for the team crew sets (crew chief and 3 pittys) and $21.99 for the team hauler sets... a few of these have turned up at some clearance stores (Gordman's, Big Lots) in the US at $10 and $15 each... I might have gotten a few of the more common team crew sets for $10 and $14 on clearance at Target... I would like to see someone in the US or throughout the world (TRU maybe) pick up these sets where they left off... the molds have been made and saved... they just need to be painted.

                              I got this from a friend in June... but am just now getting around to taking a picture of it...



                              It will need a huge custom frame, as the poster is 51" by 24"...

                              I apologize for the clash with the bedspread, but that's the only place I could unroll it that was Holley (the puppy) proof.

                                Found the Lightning McQueen Alive at the local Kmart yesterday... it was $62.99... I saw video belonging to a friend from California who had bought it... it looked nice but I can't justify spending the money for it myself at this time... I also saw the Bomb Blasting Mater at Kmart and Meijer both for $69.99... it looks like a huge 1:18 Lights and Sounds that also may be RC controlled and says almost 70 phrases... again, it's just too much money for something I don't want.

                                I'd like to see Mattel concentrate on producing what we want to buy as opposed to what they want us to be since those are currently not the same.

                                I don't mind buying more expensive Cars if they are something that I want... case in point... the upcoming Blu-ray items that go on sale November 1.
