    Fun Fact: You can dissassble it and remove the head, meaning you can put other things in there too.

    I'm actually surprised Lightning McQueen is still a thing.

    Cars is an evergreen franchise for Disney.

    Meanwhile, the Studio Series Cores haven’t even shown up for me at Target.

    Exploitable. I want to see a thread with various photos of everyone's Daniels that show what they replaced his head with.

    Dude? Don’t you know all Generations figures are made for children in mind! Why, the Diaclone Lift-Ticket figure was made just for kids! Every kid knows what Diaclone is because their parents are sure to have told them! Hasbro doesn’t cater to us collectors at all!

    Oh man Cars has become as evergreen as Hot Wheels. It's still a very prominent section at Targets, usually by the Paw Patrol.

    Disney hit the jackpot with that brand.

    You realize the market for Selects and general retail figures are not the same...right?

    Is that so? They make the exact same figures, only in different colors, and they are intended for different markets? Then tell me, who is the intended market for these?

    Exclusives, sure, but sold in mainline boxes.

    I’m serious. Rationalize this for me.

    It's nice that that you think they would bother with a new head.
