New Mini Racer Haul!

I found some new mini racer three-packs the other day: 

The Wille's Butte 3-Pack, featuring Fabulous McQueen, Dinoco Cruz (both of which I already have), and the first ever diecast of Saludos Amigos Ramone (who is an incredibly detailed mini, it's a shame we still don't have his regular diecast release).

The Cozy Cone motel three pack (Which I think should've been called the Wheel Well Motel pack) includes Mater, Sally, And the exclusive Radiator Springs McQueen. This is actually my first time getting the regular Sally mini, which is great to finally have.

And, finally, the second XRS three-pack, including a re-release of XRS McQueen, and exclusive XRS variants of Tim Treadless and Brick Yardley. I'm especially excited about Brick because this is the first mini racer of him I've gotten.

Anyway, that's all for today! Make sure to comment, and let me know what you think about these three-packs, and check back soon for more!

  1. interesting packs. It's funny to see how mattel starts releasing more cars as mini racer before the regular release

    btw, when is the mini racers customs video coming out?

    1. I'm probably going to wait until after this season of Cars Adventures is done to do that video.

  3. I'm so hyped for this season of cars adventures! I love it when new customs are introduced, especially if they look like they're new characters.

    the custom we saw at the end of episode 4 kinda made me think of Barry Depedal a bit, but the ? made me think of the mysterious cars from my series.

    1. I'm glad you're excited! You'll just have to see who this car is...

  4. In a recent video you said you were considering not buying blue desert Sage Vanderspin, because you didn't want to promote his wrong name and artwork. Maybe you can buy him, but not do an unboxing review of him (and unbox him of camera), but save him up for the last reviews thing

    1. Yeah, maybe. I could also review him for a wayback Wednesday, since he was technically first released in the 2008 MSOS set. That way, I wouldn't have to review the packaging or unbox him.

    2. So, I'm thinking about doing a video on my second channel where I talk about diecasts that I don't/haven't used in cars Adventures, and explain why I haven't used them. Can you think of any diecasts I have that haven't been in Cars Adventures, or haven't had a major role? (For example, I know I'm going to talk about all of the McQueen variants I haven't used) Thanks!

    3. I know a whole bunch of cars that you could talk about (you could almost make it a short series):
      XRS racers
      The Trainees (when Aiden appears, there are only three of them, and you also left us on a cliffhanger with them)
      all of your recent releases XD
      Fireball beach racers (you only used a few of them)
      old racers from Doc's time
      the Maters with hats (and other fan favorites cars)
      most of the scavenger hunt/metallic cars
      TROC racers
      some of the Thailand variants
      piston cup veterans (not all of them of course)(both from cars 1 and 3)
      Team LM and redline cars
      video game customs
      some Cruz variants
      Crew chiefs
      some of the redline staff (a few of them appeared in season 21 but only for a few seconds to tell something to Tolga)
      SDCC cars

      some induvidual cars:
      RS classics Fillmore
      original Red
      Ferrari F430
      snot rod with flames
      Technically you almost never used Rod torque redline, he was mainly use in the movie
      proffesor Z
      Marco and Marcello
      Takeshi and Hiroaki
      normal Jeff
      nigel with flames
      Vitaly petrov and Rip Clutchgoneski
      maybe give Sterling a mention, we haven't seen anything of him in a long time (maybe he's working with Aiden now, since that would make sense)
      Charlie Checker
      Roscoe and mr drippy
      Nurse GTO!
      avatar version of Ty

      Harvey Rodcap
      Noah Gocek
      Eric Braker
      George New-Win
      Spikey Fillups
      Shifty drug next gen (if you don't have a name for him, I might have a few ideas)

      I don't expect you to include these, but they didn't appear, so here they are:
      some hydrowheels
      splash racers (except Arvy)
      mini adventures (except king and wingo)
      mini racers (you used a few townies with the shrinking ray (how about letting that thing return soon))
      microdrifters

      there are a lot more cars that haven't had a major role, so I don't know a lot for those, but I was already planning to rewatch the entire series again soon, so I might come back with a second list

  5. 5 episodes into the rewatch ... Cruz's crash is probably one of the worst episodes, and yet it helped shape almost the entire series...
