yep, I agree, mattel should have bought out a case full of hamiltons in the uk, a case of alonsos in spain, etc, in fact if they hadda got the little twerp out in time for the british gp or the goodwood festival of speed they might justa cleaned up

its about time the toy buyers in tesco , asda, told mattel to sort themselves out, (or words to that effect)

[FirefighterUK]

Totally agree.

USPS delivers: 11/10/11

I helped one of my friends in Texas with a Deluxe Rescue Squad Mater single that she needed... in return, she sent me some new Cars2 singles which arrived 11/10/11:

Lewis Hamilton, Carlo Maserati, and Hudson Hornet Lightning McQueen singles...


This is my first Hudson Hornet Lightning McQueen (from the beginning of Cars2)... I need another one (or two or three or...)


I can now open a Carlo Maserati:


I hope I can find these in a store soon... and I hope you can too...

first time ive seen hh mcq, looks like another mattel con to me

[Rippers]

Hudson Hornet looks great to me:-)

I got this today in the post from amazon

[dumbleweed]

How much was it Rippers?

[Rippers]

Expensive! Worked out with import duties and shipping £68!
The blu ray plays fine on my uk player which is a relief

[cac1959]

Very nice, Rippers... I saw it the first day it went on sale and even though I really wanted it, did not buy it... I told my wife it would be a wonderful birthday present or Christmas present... and since my birthday is before Christmas, I hope I don't have to wait 6 weeks for it...

I did receive this eBay purchase in the mail today:









Doesn't look like it has rivets...

$10.98 shipped...

Went Cars Hunting at multiple TRUs, Targets, WalMarts, and Kmarts over the weekend and found nothing new. Did get to stop in a Disney Store and took advantage of the 30% off to make sure Santa will be leaving an Oil Rig Playset and a Diecast Crabby under the tree. Now I just have to wait 6 more weeks to be able to play with them.

[Rippers]

Nice King, Chris hope mine arrive soon!
