Mattel Disney Pixar Diecast CARS: The Other Mini’s From the Kmart Cases
In the slight hub-bub regarding the Piston Cup racers from the Kmart CARS Day & cases … a couple CARS have been forgotten.
Hello.
It’s MINI!
Finally …
Of course, it’s unclear why she’s this shade of purple versus the more mauve-purple from the film … but maybe after you go through Crazy Days at Shakopee, MN, you’re never the same
🙂
Easy boys, she’s married …
And of course, the “I-thought-you-paid-for-the-GPS-map-update,” Van the man who is a Van.
Yep, at one point, there was talk of Movie Moment 2-pack of the “Lost Mini & Van.” I think it’ still happening but check back in 2010 …
And the other mini CAR in the Kmart CASE K box?
Vitoline Pitty!
Yes, his “spare” tires are all black, no green rims … though many people are reporting they are also finding a version where the included tool chest is blue and not green (as an error accessory).
The Vitoline race team … they just aren’t the same since Vitoline fell asleep and as a gag, the others racers sandblasted off his metal grill mustache … he sure is a sound sleeper.

maybe Mini got a bad sunburn on her road trip, we all know how hot its been down south. maybe she went to disney world with Van
I nearly died the first time I heard the line about Crazy Days in Shakopee and the Scanda-Sota accent. I wonder if it comes from Pixar Director Pete Doctor, a dis-placed Minnesotan himself.
I don’t have my case yet, so I am still waiting for Mini’s arrival.
AHHAHHAHAHHH Yes! I have a huge amount of Family in Shakopee! WOOT WOOT! Shout out! P.S. To all members please remember we are still updating the site with Cars codes and it seems they are usable more than once. If you have any that we are missing please email them to bloken468@hotmail.com
OK, the supply of Cars in San Diego is abysmal, abysmal I tell you!
Nothin at Target, picked clean. Just a few stray cactus and tumbleweed McQ’s.
Megasize? RPM hauler cab, lots of them, not much else.
Plenty of Haulers out and about, but I have all except TF.
No lenticulars at WM, jeez I hate WM.
What does a Cars lovin’ girl have to look forward to? SDCC is a whole month away!
Keep an eye on WM……ours went from nothing to 2 cases of Lenticulars literally overnight……I walked away with 2 Saluting Sarges, against all odds.
Mine went from nothing to less than nothing in a month. 🙁
At least you have SDCC to look forward to. I got nuthin’ here. Except Frank, Elvis, Sven, Milton and the Chick twins that I’ve traded for. Yipee. Okay, maybe not as good as Comic Con but “a gold strike” for me!!
Glad I could help you with Elvis & the Chick Twins!!
Besides Milton’s initial appearance at my Wal-Mart WEEKS ago, I’ve never seen him since. Nor Impound Wingo for that matter! Has anyone else experience similar “single-sightings” like this?
I’ve only seen the Lenticulars once; we drove from TX to NY and found nothing. They had one case so I got Saluting Sarge but Chase Ferrari was gone which I thought was strange. Still can’t find Frank either
I think Mini is my current fave, she’s so cute.
lol i think the mini is really cute in the purple they picked.. but you guys are right mini and van dont mesh well color wise oh well!!! they still are cool! 😀
Haha! Mini is a Dipstick too!!
minis been thinking with her dipstick!
LOL
van and mini 2 pack!!!!!
I’ll wait for the 2 pack with Mini and Van after they’ve been lost in the desert, with Van’s stubble and the grass growing out of his rooftop carrier. “Oh, for the love of Chrysler!”
as long as it isnt gunna be nicknamed ‘brocoli-head van’ we will be fine.
i need regular itself and it would be cool to see how mattels creativity would be for lost mini and van
It’s hilarious that her license plate says she’s from Dipstick. 🙂
I was going to post that!! Oh well, you beat me too it…naybe if PirateDaddy would let me stay up LATER now that school is OVER!!! YEAH, last day!!!!
anyone notice that Mini’s hub caps are angled backwards from picture?
Don’t forget who is the voice of Mini!
It’s the secretary from “Ferris Bueller’s Day Off”.
“Ferris Bueller is a righteous dude!”
Hahaha. I love that quote. “Oh, he’s very popular Ed. The sportos, the motorheads, geeks, sluts, bloods, waistoids, dweebies, d***heads…they all adore him. They think he’s a righteous dude.”
isnt it also the voice actress who plays princibal victoria in south park?
ahhh, no its not, did some research and the 3 voice actesses who played princibal victoria were:
Mary Kay Bergman:
who did voices for: Fairly Odd Parents, Family Guy, Scooby Doo, Star Wars Ep.I, Buzz Lightyear Star Command & Toy Story 2.
Eliza Schneider:
Dis voices in Invader Zim
and April Stewart :
nothing realy relevent tbh…
but i was close with the toy story one!
I really think the paint people did not consider Van and Mini together when they picked that color. Ugh.
I love mini by herself but she doesnt look right with Van.
Maybe Ramone can do a quick repaint….”Ramone will paint you up right!”
but she is sparkley in the sun!
Will the non-racers (Mini, Vitoline Pitty, Chase Mario) be offered in a re-release in the future like Edwin Kranks was last year?
well,two of three cars that you listed will be re-released. mini and vitoline pitty but not chase mario. sorry about chase mario!
Well Mini and Vitoline Pitty definitely aren’t Kmart exclusives anyway. They’ve been seen elsewhere. Not sure if the Chase Mario is sold elsewhere.
Actually, they were seen at Sears…but is that still considered Kmart, since it’s the same company?
When are they comming out with Van again? I got Mini but I need Van.
Is loose o.k.? I might have an extra one…..I’ll have to check, but he’s mint, in his clear “case”, but no card.
I have extra carded ones. stevehb1(a)bigfoot.com
Mini is awesome; I wish I got one to put next to my computer.
So what are the next case assortments? I seem to remember we only had a list thru case J. What have people been finding in stores; our move from TX to NY has put me out of the loop a little.
(MET: We have case assortments for lenticulars … “classic” CARS will be back at Target on 8/15 …).
She was more popular than the Piston Cup cars at our KMart Event.
wow! not at mine well maybe
she was the first one I opened. She also was the hottest one on ebay before the event. Mini is HOT! even without her eyelids.
I just want to know what happened to Mini’s eyelids!!!
She does have a nice paint job though…
“SHE’S OUT GETTING LASER LASHES APPT.’S ARE NECESSARY GO FIGURE….
AND THATS A WAX JOB SHE’S SPORTING !!!
I thought something didn’t look right, just couldn’t figure it out. Now I see.
She’s must be looking at Ramones Von Dutch pin strip! “Oh my!”
That’s exactly what I was thinking.
LOL
She’s the first car we’ve seen with fully opened eyes, right?
maybe they are just getting her ready for the lenticular treatment…
IT’S ABOUT TIME !!!
🙂
YOU ARE 1ST LOL…….
I think chuki_mama is being tipped off before these posts come up, because she is getting an awful lot of “first’s” lately!! 😉
The “TIP” came from you!!! 😆
She’s so cute that my girls each wanted their own. Even picked up an extra one for a friend. 8)
Yes, you did, and I am REALLY happy about it!! She is SO CUTE!!! My favorite part of the WHOLE movie is when Lightning is trying to get them to help him and they BEEP BOOP their car alarms…me and my dad laugh SO hard every time that happens!!! Thank you chuki_mama!
