Tractor Tipping Board Game Review / Instructions with Frank the Combine from Disney Pixar Cars

Here is our Tractor Tipping Board Game made by Mattel. This game was released for the original Disney Pixar Cars movie. I bought it at a thrift store for $4.

Now the "cheapest" place to buy it is eBay for $50. You can buy it for $80 on Amazon. Such high prices! http://www.amazon.com/Mattel-G9145-Cars-Tractor-Tippin/dp/B000B7P340/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1346183481&sr=8-1&keywords=tractor+tipping+board+game

Really, your best bet if you want to buy the game is to check Craigslist, garage sales or thrift stores. With this game, the set comes with Frank the Combine, Sally, Lightning McQueen, Doc Hudson, Mater and several tractors. All the playing pieces are plastic. Frank the Combine along with the other cars are made on a small scale. Frank does have moving pieces. This game celebrates Mater and Lightning McQueen's favorite pass time: Tractor Tipping in Radiator Springs!

Tractor Tipping Board Game Instructions:
The object of the game is to collect as many tractors as possible by landing on them and thus tippin' the tractors. Each tractor has a number on it's bottom. At the end of the game you count up the points on the bottom of the tractors and the person with the most points wins! If you roll the die and land on Frank, then just roll the die again and move Frank from his current location to the hay stack with the number you just rolled. If another car is in Frank's path than they must give up one of their tractors and place it back on the board. The person that rolled the Frank icon chooses where the tractor is placed on the board.

2013 HotWheels Buick Riviera 1964 SUPER '64 Lincoln Continental

February 16, 2013 was yet another HotWheels event at Kmart! I bought several of the new 2013 HotWheels cars to show my YouTube cars fans and collectors! I honestly just happened on this event because I thought it was a Disney Pixar Cars Kmart event, whoops! But I got to extra Super Chase Rare Finds what ever you call them for HotWheels: the new 2013 HotWheels Buick Riviera 1964 and the new 2012 '64 Lincoln Continental Convertible.

Some other notable and cool cars I bought at this HotWheels die-cast cars event at Kmart are the Bat Mobile, Flintstones car, the scooby-doo mystery machine and more. Some of the 2013 Super Treasure Hunts include: Bread Box, Carbonator, '10 Camaro SS, Fast Fish, Circle Trucker, '64 Lincoln Continental_(2000), and the Sting Rod II. The nice thing about the HotWheels cars is that they are way cheaper than the Disney Pixar Cars. Hotwheels are only $1 where the Disney cars can be $4...yikes! One of my favorite things from the event is a 2013 8x10 Hot Wheels Poster.

Cars 2 Dump Truck Tipping Colossus Tractor Tipping Micro Drifters Disney Pixar Screaming Banshee

Here is the Cars 2 Dump Truck in action, complete with Dump Truck Tipping by best friends Lightning McQueen and Mater. In this video I show you how the Colossus XL Dump Truck from Disney Pixar's Cars 2 can eat the Mattel Micro Drifters Cars. I also compare the dump truck Colossus to the Mater and The Ghost Light Mater's Tall Tales Screaming Banshee.

I purchased this Colossus XXL Dump Truck Play Set at Kmart for $14.99 but I have also seen it at the Disney Store outlet for $9.99. Colossus eats up Micro Drifters (sold separately) and can eat up to 15 mini cars. Colossus comes with just one car, Lightning McQueen.

Micro Drifters are sold in 3 packs in the following combinations:
*Gold Lightning McQueen, Holley & Acer
*Nigel Gearsley, Jeff Gorvette & Francesco Bernoulli
*Lightning McQueen, Raoul Caroule & Mater
*Lightning McQueen, Chick Hicks and Clutch Aid
*Professor Z, Grem & Finn McMissile
*Lightning, Spare Mint (not Spare O Mint to the late comers) and Octane Gain

Cars MICRO DRIFTERSTM Colussus XXL Car-Chomping Dump Truck*: In DisneyoPixar's Cars 2, kids meet Colossus XXL, a memorable large-scale character most famous for being tractor-tipped. Now, this true-to-scale Colossus XXL can tip others as he scoops up Micro Drifters vehicles with his loader and stores them in back. Dump to release and watch the characters (which feature ball-bearing technology) race, drift and swarm-just like they do in Disney/Pixar Cars! Includes 1 Micro Drifters vehicle. My favorite thing to do with the dump truck is Dump Truck Tipping similar to Tractor Tipping in the original cars movie. Tractor Tipping is one of my most favorite parts of Disney Pixar Cars where Lightning McQueen and Mater tip over tractors and Frank the Combine chases them.

In this video you also see the Screaming Banshee that eats the Mini Adventures cars from the original Disney Pixar Cars movie, Mater's Tall Tales Mater the Ghostlight. Scary!

Disney Planes Movie Toys Update and New Theater Release Date August 9 2013 Planes Dusty Toy

The new Disney Planes theatrical release date has been moved up to August 9, 2013. There are some major updates to the new Disney Pixar Planes movie which will be released in 2013. Originally the movie was going to be released straight to video in the spring of 2013. However, now Disney has announced that the Disney Planes movie will be released in movie theaters on August 9th 2013. Planes is a spin-off from the Disney Pixar movie Cars and Cars 2. Planes is being produced by DisneyToons Studios.

Below is the plot to the DisneyToons Planes movie:
"From high above the world of "Cars," flies "Planes," Disney's upcoming animated action-packed comedic adventure starring Dusty, a big-hearted, fast-flying crop duster who dreams of competing in the most exhilarating around-the-world air race in history. There's only a couple of not-so-small problems - Dusty is not exactly built for racing and he also happens to be afraid of heights.
Despite his fear and with encouragement from his mentor, a naval aviator named Skipper, Dusty narrowly qualifies for the big competition. Dusty's sportsmanship and speed begin to rattle the defending champ of the race circuit, Ripslinger, who will stop at nothing to see Dusty fail.

When disaster strikes during the climax of the final race, Dusty's courage is put to the ultimate test. With the support of friends old and new, Dusty reaches heights he never dreamed possible and in the process, gives a spellbound world the inspiration to soar.

Along with the release of Planes there will be new Planes toys released in the spring and summer of 2013. I can't wait for the new Dusty planes toys.

Disney is already working on a Planes 2: Fire and Rescue. The Disney Planes movie is part of a 3 part trilogy. DisneyToons is also considering making other Disney Pixar Cars spin-offs like Trains and Boats...no joke.

The Disney Planes movie will have the following characters: Chug, Skipper, Dusty Crophopper and El Chupacabra.
