Mattel Disney Pixar CARS 2 Diecast: Kabuto is Not Flame On
The international cases are different than the US case assortments … Kabuto is out … as “Dolly P.” sends us this pic from Germany.
He looks the same as the Kabuto from the Toon’s series … but if you missed out, you will get a chance to get him fairly soon as a CARS 2 single.
It looks like his tires should really be red – not just the trim …
Sadly, we will have to wait longer for Kabuto with Flames, proto photos but never officially released …
Thanks for the nice pics, “Dolly P.”

I will get a second Kabuto to use on the Tokyo Mater playsets we have out.
I was gifted with a Kabuto with flame, and he is quite special, with 3 major differences from regular Kabuto. The Tokyo Mater Japanese Cars,are The best toons cars overall. Martin’s designs really were impressive.
Martin’s design? Didn’t Pixar design them? Mattel just brings them to life.
Nice picture, Dolly!
Hopefully we will get Dan Sklarkenburg (sp?) as a Cars 2 singles release. He is seen in the Cars 2 Radiator Springs scenes quite a lot, and the diecast appeared from the back door sellers briefly before the final Final Lap case was abandoned.
If it were Kabuto with flames I’d be very interested… as it is, I’ll probably buy one but it’s not as high on my wish list as other Cars…
It’s amazing… for months there were no new Cars coming out… and now, there are almost too many coming out… we have a a lot to look forward to.
Other than the 8 Kmart 8 Cars and Victor H and Vladimir Trunkov at 2 Toys R US stores, and Jeff and Carla launchers at 2 Kohl’s stores, I’ve seen nothing new in stores since November 2011… I am thankful there are online retailers as well as friends in other countries who are there to help me (and others) out.
Kabuto is a highly sought after car so it’s great to see it released again. Too bad the US is behind again and we may have to wait awhile to see it here but at least it’s out there on card.
What I would like to know is if and when we will see the return of the Toons line.
Any word yet Met?
(MET: No word on Toons but if Disney intends to release a bunch more between now and Fall, maybe Toons singles will return after October – Toons mega is definitely a go with CARS Take Flight though no word on CASE B).
Kabuto with flame has been on Ebay backdoor sellers sites for a while, So hopefully we will see it eventually, Not too excited by this release as its identical to the Toons car, GIVE US NEW MOLDS!!
