                More than likely got the staff to modify the 1,000,000 standard stock McQueen's they have!

                  No chance - the staff at TRU don't have the inclination or skills to do that!!!

                  Someone must have tripped and hit the order button...

                      The US TRU website has the Hudson Hornet McQueen and Mel Dorado singles listed as available for shipping... I broke my non-resolution for 2012 and ordered 3 items on eBay yesterday... hopefully they arrive soon...

                          Found the first "new" car in TRU yesterday in a long time. I finally have Mel Dorado after 2 months of hunting for him. Next one to hunt...Chase Radiator Springs Ramone.
