Picked up two more chase Kings w/ cup at Kohl's in Burke VA. They didn't have them on the salesfloor; I asked an associate to check the stockroom. I
showed her a pic of a chase King and a pic of a case so she knew what to look for.

I went by a Target today and found one of each:
- Disney Storyteller's Collection: Buford - Collector's Series [TBA, Target exclusive] - Disney Storyteller's Collection: Cletus - Collector's Series [TBA, Target exclusive] - Disney Storyteller's Collection: Jud - Collector's Series [TBA, Target exclusive] - Disney Storyteller's Collection: Laverne - Collector's Series [TBA, Target exclusive] - Disney Storyteller's Collection: Rhonda - Collector's Series [TBA, Target exclusive] - Disney Storyteller's Collection: Sheila - Collector's Series [TBA, Target exclusive] However, the price of them has gone up to $6.50 a piece. Is it just me, but have they gone up quite a bit since last Christmas? Since I got whacked from my job about two weeks ago, I have suspended all my hunting. Even if that had not happened, it is becoming harder and harder to justify these higher and higher prices that Mattel is selling the Storyteller, Final Lap and Mater TallTales Cars. |

What is it about this Darrell Cartrip that makes it a Chase? Does it have a special paint job? |

DilbertW01 wrote: Yup its the Ransburg version, it doesn't have the glitter effect that the original has, to me the Ransburg idea was a great idea but the execution leaves something to be desired, maybe it is just me. I know I heard the notion of them being 'double' Ransburg, I don't know if the examples from say SDCC that I saw pics of were in fact 'double' or it was just a play on light but it is no where near as shiny looking in real life. It is different from the others and a much better chase then adding a piston cup to an old car or changing the package, plus you at least get the feeling that mattel had to spend just a tad bit more money on it and that makes it just a little bit easier to spend your hard earned money on yet again what is basically another repeat. |

Found a lone Mater Saves Christmas gift pack in Olympia, WA tonight. Nice looking set...at least until the box got crushed on the way home. Guess that one is
the opener for the kids.

Made a trip to Dayton (Oh) this morning... stopped at 3 Targets, 1 Kmart, 3 Walmart, and 1 Toys R Us. Here are the highlights of my trip:
I picked up 1 of 2 Mater Saves Christmas box sets... the other had a badly mangled box and 2 Cars with chipped paint. I bought 2 of the 3 new 4 packs, leaving only the one with Vitoline and Rev N Go. I found remnants of the new Lenticulars at 2 Walmart stores and bought 3 of the new Cars - if Mattel would have come out with this lenticular style first I don't think there would have been nearly the number of complaints that came out. Of course the Chase Cartrip was gone. I also bought a Chase Chick with Piston Cup at one Walmart and left 7 Wally Haulers. I did find the Sarge's Boot Camp at the TRU I stopped at. The 2 racers were 10% off... not quite as good as the buy 2 get 1 free, but still a good deal. |
