  • Apparently somewhere on the forums it was mentioned that Disney Store have a different type of account for Cars, plus there distribution is the same as the supermarkets as some are getting them and some are not. DS store in Uxbridge have had Lewis (missed them!) but Reading haven't had them yet.

    • I went hunting for the first time in ages yesterday

      Picked up a Lewis Hamilton in Tesco's - they had a few in there along with some Carlo's, but I let him, despite not having him yet... They have a few Case E's and F's on top of the shelves there too

      I also popped into TRU and whilst their Cars 2 selection was somewhat to be desired, they did have the Dinoco, Leak Less and Octain Gain Pit Crew sets in, reduced to £9.99 and on 3 for 2. They also had the Nitroade and Octain Gain Hauler / Pitty / Car sets in for 14.99 (again on 3 for 2). Now I don't have the Octain Gain hauler so was tempted to pick it up, but managed to hold off (perhaps if there were 2 other items I needed I'd have gone for it!!!

      Why could they not have this stuff available months ago when I still needed it?!?!?!

          the oil rig play set at 40 quid and
          london diecast set at 25, this had a dd bus, the queen, a landrover with bear skin at the front and at the rear were holley and finn, looked good from a distance but on closer examination, the holley and finn were slightly larger than the normal sized versions, hrh looked quite small in comparison to the others and the landrover with the bearskin was near enough the height of the bus!, didnt purchase
          I bought the London set for my daughter for Xmas as she loves the queen.

            • Received 2 packages today... 1, from lovemini, contained a Duff Wrecks with blue rims (instead of white)... and the other was my Amazon order of the Cars Director's Edition that I'd ordered on Tuesday 11/22/11 when it was on sale for $53.99... it wasn't due to arrive until the 29th, but it came today.

                          • Meijer stores have 2 packs for $5.99... this morning I found 2 Guido/Luigi/Uncle Topolino and about 4 each of the Finn/Tomber and Mater/Zen Master Pitty... I moved the Uncle Topolino packs to the front of 1 of the 3 pegs.

                            I would really like to see some new 2 packs in a store... whether it's the Kmart Crew Chief 2 packs or the Mama/Uncle Topolino and Finn/Leland Turbo or Security Finn/Acer.

                            I also came out after work today to find just under 2 inches of snow on the ground... I don't like cold winter weather... and with just over 3 weeks until winter, the cold winter weather is already here...

                              I have yet to see any of the new 2 packs on the pegs anywhere out here. My Kmart has the same Crew chief packs from July. The other stores have the same ones from May. You had snow yesterday? 2 days ago it was in the 70's out here. 50's yesterday and today. Bring on the cold weather!

                                You can have the cold weather... and our local Kmart has never gotten crew chief 2 packs... still stuck with Mater/Zen Master Pitty and Finn/Tomber 2 packs... I did see one Grem/Damaged Rod Torque Redline 2 pack last week.

                                Kmart needs to use unique product identification codes for their exclusive Cars items...
