Snazzy: Up on The Simpsons/Pizza Planet Truck in Real Life

News

Some snazzy Pixar related stuff floating around the internet:

Up Floats into Springfield: The Simpsons crew decided to add a little in-joke on Up in the season finale for their show. Many Pixar animators come from the Simpsons and vice-versa, so it was really cool of them to make that reference! You may remember last year, WALL•E made a cameo in another Simpsons episode. You can watch the clip here, wait ‘til the end for Carl’s house:

Pizza Planet Truck, For Real: Remember the Pizza Planet truck cameo in Cars? Take Five a Day is reporting you can own Todd the Pizza Planet truck now! I know a lot of people have been looking forward to this die-cast release as well, and it’s great to report to you it’s finally available in stores.

To make it even better, check out this picture a reader sent the die-cast Cars fan blog. After a little Photoshop tweaking it looks just like a real-life version of the iconic truck!
