  • Hello from the UK (North Hampshire)

    Hi everyone, just wanted to say hi to everyone on this site. I started to collect Disney Cars for my son back in late 2012 after I saw cars 2 for the first time. The first car I bought for him was Professor Z. He's 3 now and has around 50, though I have lots more boxed in the attic for him which he gets now and then! We saw cars 1 after cars 2 and are sadly missing most of the cars 1 cars (other than the 2013 re-releases) - we will perhaps be the minority hoping for cars 1 re-releases in 2014! I've found it impossible to not start a small collection myself (which started with Chick Hicks and the King) but I am desperately fighting the urge to collect more for myself as I already collect things like the retro hotwheels, retro toys in general and even a lot of newer release toys like the classic turtles figures and masterpiece transformers. I hope to pass these to my boy when he's old enough but I certainly enjoy accumulating them in the meantime! I've already traded with a couple of members and hope to do so more in the future (I'll try to put up a wanted/haves list soon when I get a chance).

    Best regards to all

                    Welcome to PCD, BirchTiger... glad to have you here...

                    I've been collecting since later 2006/early 2007 and even though I have almost everything, I'd like to see more releases of Cars that we've not seen before or for awhile... like a Tach O Mint with plastic tires, Todd, Lizzie, and more... I hope you're able to find what you're looking for... from eastern Indiana... Chris

                              If you've had a chance to read through some posts, you may already have gathered that collecting Disney (Pixar) Cars is a bit of a roller coaster ride!

                              This is especially true for UK based collectors. As a subordinate to Mattel Europe, Mattel UK doesn't import the full range available to the rest of Europe. Europe doesn't get the full range released in the US either!

                              Anyway, aside from the frustrations, Cars collecting can be very rewarding!

                              Welcome to the party!
