Cars magazine here in the UK

[Neo53]

I am not sure if anyone has posted about this, but here in the UK there is a Cars magazine...dedicated to NOTHING BUT Pixar's Cars.

The mag is generally aimed towards kids, but it is fun to poke about, play the games, and collect the things that come with it (A TON of stickers so far, magnets, disposable camera...so far anyway). It is released every month like any magazine, and seems to be getting quite popular (from what I am seeing with the reader submission section)

The mag does go into more information on each character, and has some really cute comics (each mag comes with 1-3 comics in it)!! There are contests and really just all sorts of poke-fun cars goodness

I know if I still lived in the USA, I would just DIE for this magazine, and would do a lot to get it...so an idea popped in my head - Anyone who isnt able to get this magazine interested in getting it?

I would have to get a list of people who want it, they must pay a head of time (I will not make a profit, only offering it as a service to my other fellow Cars fans...as I know I would take someone up on it if they offered it)...once I have collected the magazines, I ship them out to everyone the next Saturday.

I can take some pictures of the 3 magazines I have already (4th magazine came out a couple days ago...which I need to go pick up) if anyone is interested....but I will not copy the entirety of the magazines (I believe in supporting the magazine....and not ripping it off).

Anyway...I will only do this if there is a reasonable amount of interest...other wise you guys will have to come to me privately and work something out

Let me hear from ya

Please Note: THREE (3) magazines have already been released. I cannot and will not offer these previous magazines, but only new releases as it is IMPOSSIBLE to pick up out-of-date ones D: (if I could, I would!)

I'm curious about it. What do you think it would end up costing for each issue (purchase cost and shipping?)

There's a magazine for preschoolers called "Disney and Me" that's published here and it occasionally includes an original Cars story told in multi-panel format but it's not a true comic. I'm hoping the comics in the UK's magazine are a little more in-depth and they're not the same ones (Lizzie's makeover, repainting the town mural) that appeared in our Disney Adventures magazine. What are some of the comics about?

Each issue is £1.99 ...which is about $3.75. Shipping would be about just as much, if not less....I would have to go in and check (which should be soon, as I am sending a copy of the magazine to a friend in Canada).

The comics in these magazines so far (issue 1 - 3)
-> Secret Fuel - McQueen gets fed up with all his stalkers, so tricks them into trying Fillmore's in-progress new Bio Fuel. Its silly x)
-> SOS! A New Tire for Sally! (this is an interactive comic, of sorts...) - McQueen and Sally decide to take a spin. Sally a flat tire. OH NOES! NO TIRES, Truck is lost. Mater saves the day with the Dinoco Heli (they have a love relationship in this comic, I swear o___o)
-> The Hospitality of Champions - Sally has a real mess on her hands as she needs to accomidate a Fan Club and Clink & Clank! (The Fans in this comic make me LOLREDNECKS )
-> Just in Time - Very short and silly comic...cant describe it without giving it all away xP
-> A Body for All Occasions (another interactive comic...thing) - Sally decides she wants to wear something special for McQueen on their date that night, but she isnt sure what. Our favorite Chevy Impala saves the day...or does he?
-> Off-Track Advice - McQueen needs advice from Strip Weathers, Doc finds out and gets all jealous that Lightning isnt asking him for advice, only to find out it isnt advice he can really give. (This one makes me laugh. Yay Grumpy Doc)
-> Race to Victory! - Everyone finds out Mater has always wanted to win a race...and they come up with a great plan to grant him that wish (this comic is really cute x))

Did I mention the magazines come with 1 and 2 page posters? Magazine also averages 30+ pages each issue

So roughly $8 if it's sent the cheapest way? I'm interested in a copy, maybe next month's if it's too late for the current issue.
