    After looking in vain in stores for the new die-cast set of Luigi & Guido in their tifosi gear, I gave up and got a couple on eBay. (I also got Doc as "The Fabulous Hudson Hornet".)

    Has anyone seen them in stores anywhere yet?

    I've also been trying to locate them as well, I even went to the Mattel Toy store & they sold out before I could get any. From what I understand, try Toys R US, Walmart, or Target. They might have them & I've found a couple of the Pixar sets there I wasn't able to locate at MTS.

    Tried all three, without success so far, at least in this area. Thank goodness for eBay!

    (And I'm not really a big fan of eBay, even though I found my 1/1 scale Ferrari there! :D)

    I still can't find them in stores, I really don't want to overpay for them on Ebay but that might be the only way.

    On another note, it has come to my attention the F430 Michael Schumacher will be made, look for wave 4 of the Pixar series. Production was to start on it in late February & will ship sometime during March.

    I went to Target after work to look for the Shumy F430 but they said they haven't gotten them yet. But I did find Tifosi Luigi & Guido instead!

    W00T!

    I picked two sets about 3 weeks ago in the "world of Disney" sore in Manhattan.They had a bunch of them (the tifosi) and from what I understood from the guy on the counter they had them for a wile but no one cared.I don't know how much are they on e-bay but they go for $14 a set in the disney store plus tax.

    I paid less than $8 for mine at Target, I was just about to go ahead & buy one off EBAY but the lowest price I could was $15 including shipping. I'm glad I waited a bit longer, now all I have to do now is find the Schumy F430 to add to my collection.

    I had a HW's Collector find my 1st set about a month or so ago. Then I found one at the Target across from work. Then I was out and about over in the Bay Area a week or so back and found almost 20 sets on the pegs @ Toys R Us. I Bought 4 sets for some of the local F-Chatters. As far as the Schumi F430, we are all still waiting for that to show up.

    Very cute. Would be even better if they added the MS car.

    That would only work if they do a set with Guido, Luigi, M.S. F430 and the 2 Maserati's as a very sweet set. But Luigi & Guido will have to be passed out.

    I have to find a set of this, I freaking love Disney Cars. Probably the best Disney movie I have seen in a while. Mind you, this was made by Pixar and before Disney bought Pixar, Pixar was eating Disney's lunch.

    None of my local stores had them, ended up buying 2 off Ebay for $12-13 shipped (found auctions ending overnight that nobody bid on). One set for the kiddos to play with, another to stay in the packaging and go to car shows...

    Found a set at W-M this morning. Was hoping to get 2, one for me and other for the kids but only had one. We'll be hitting the other W-M and Toy-R-Us in search of another set. After picking up Guido & Luigi I stopped by the Hot Wheels section and found a "2007 New Models" 250 LM, looks very sharp.

    A very good morning...walked out of W-M with only Ferrari stuff and spent less than $10, how often can either of those be said?!

    Thanks guys for letting me know about this set.

    I stopped off at Walmart on Thursday and found one set tucked way in the back. I've already got one - so if anyone is needing one I've got one. Just let me know, I'll let it go for what I paid for it - looking to help out, not turn a profit.
