Mattel Disney Pixar Diecast CARS: Questions Answered About CARS Coming Soon …

A few days ago, we asked you to list all your questions about CARS you want & what’s coming and here are your answers in a chart form …

Coming2

First two categories don’t need much explaining. They are on the list and pretty much scheduled. That’s not to say it’s 100% certain but they are the safest bets …

The MOST LIKELY in 2010 are ones that seem to be in the production queue so it’s looking pretty good but we haven’t heard much about them or have not seen the prototype but it’s probably happening in 2010.

The PLAUSIBLE ONES are not scheduled as of now but things could change as most are simply repaints of CARS already released. Sparkplug Aliens, Miss Victoria & Stanley would require a new mold so it’d be less likely but it is not completely outside the realm (Miss Victoria could be part of Storytellers 2010). Since they are not scheduled as of now, the ones that require a new mold are probably not happening but can’t close the door 100%.

PROBABLY NOT means pretty much that. They have never been mentioned as something that is being worked on (like light up tuners) so guess it’s time for the Disney Store to step up AGAIN ๐Ÿ™‚

(Tokyo Mater CARS are not listed – see CHECKLIST on Monday) ๐Ÿ™‚

    Quick question… Are they ever going to re-release Sally With Cone (#70) & Milton Calypeer (#91) again because I have never seen those at all. I know Sally with Cone was a Walmart thing but Milton I never saw him.

  • Bill in Simi Valley, CA says:

    Another question. When is Target going to get these nifty Final Lap Cars. They had one case and that was it…

  • NeoSK says:

    just curious, was Luigi’s mom shown in the movie? Don’t remember seeing her around.

  • Murpheeie says:

    I cannot understand what the fuss about Gil is all about. I have him and he is cool but I really want all the other team haulers before Gil, Jerry or Paul Valdez (I will have to get him as my name is Paul!) The hauler I really want is Mitch from the book. He hauls the Motorama girls and would be the coolest addition to my hauler collection. Go Mitch!

  • Jason says:

    Is there any word about the new Racer Haulers( shiny wax,no stall,etc.)
    Target had these on e-mail alert over a month ago. Thanks in advance.

  • applefinatic says:

    Is Luigi’s mom in the movie?

    (MET: Book).

  • Dolly says:

    Oh PLEASE…….. YESSSS………. MATEDOR TOONS (can’t wait to get those ones)!!! My husby is going to KILL MEEEEE:-/

    And, can someone tell me who are Paul Valdez or Bubba and Ms. Victoria or Luigi’s Mom, Bryan Antenna, Sparkplug Aliens and some other on the list i’ve NEVER heard about it??!!! Do the show on the movie? Go to go back to wacht the movie for the 1000 time :-ยง

    • iamspeed says:

      Paul Valdez is one of the semis, with the “PV” on his cab roof, next to Gil at the truck stop when they’re shown watching the race in California on tv.

      Spark plug aliens are what Lightning Storm McQueen is shooting at in his little dream sequence when he’s saving the cars world.

      Bryan Antenna Ball is the vendor coming down the aisle at the race with the slew of antenna balls on his “back”.

      Anyone else want to fill in the rest?

      • Dolly says:

        Holly molly, thats not good, not good, sh… When we got our first Lightning we didn’t actually know that there where to collect because we first saw the movie about 8 months ago and Diego is turning 3 in December 25th. My poor little twins (9 months old) are going to have to love those cars too because i’m not planning on collect something else.
        WE LOVE CARS……. ๐Ÿ™‚

        Thanks iamspeed for clearing me out!!!

      • PirateDad says:

        Bubba is Mater’s Bully Cousin from The Stroytellers book, “Meet the Cars”. Ms Victoria is from the story of how Flo ended up in Radiator Springs….and Guido Mom is from the story, “Ciao America”….

        Find the book, TArget (prolly sold out) maybe Amazon…

  • CaptainChunk says:

    Hydraulic Ramone is already showing up on Ebay, seems to me we’ll be seeing him very soon.

  • babychristianscars says:

    awesome, but I’d love to see the missing minis finally show up. I’ve seen them in pictures but never in the store.

  • ParkerWilson says:

    This isn’t the right spot but how do I find all those visual check list from last week?

    (MET: There is a calendar and a recent posts on the right hand side).

  • applefinatic says:

    Whoo Hoo somebody finally answers my questions!

  • iamspeed says:

    “Mater with newly recovered blue hood”

    If this is from the end of the movie where he finds his hood, the blue hood was actually rusty on the front…….I hope they don’t make it look “brand new”, as it should show it’s age from laying in the desert for 20 years.

  • iamspeed says:

    Met, thanks for the great charts!

  • Hostile Takeover Banker says:

    In another display of how stupid I am, can someone please explain the difference between circus cars and PT Flea’s Circus Troupe? or are they the same?

    Very cool list too, I can’t wait as per usual.

    (MET: Same. I’m presuming it will be called PT Flea Circus Troupe … it’s a Matty/Mattel Shop Online only item … when it arrives).

  • iamspeed says:

    Why does the idea keep popping up that there are 7 other racers that could be coming?

    As many times as I’ve watched the movie, I’ve never seen any “extra” racers on the track.

    Yes, Lightning indicates “1 winner, 43 losers” in his line early in the movie, but from then on there’s no indication of any “extra” racers.

    For me, if they weren’t in the movie, I don’t need “made up” racers.

    Anyone? Anyone? Bueller? Bueller?

    • iamspeed says:

      Sorry, “42 losers”.

    • PirateDad says:

      I guess we can hope…dream….wish…whine….complain….moan….

      • louiseuk says:

        I remember not long ago someone saying the blu ray disc had the other cars somewhere on it, texas tea etc. It was a case of trying to make out the sponser on the screen as the cars where way back, at least 3 cars where readable.

    • In actual Nascar, some races are 35 cars some are 43 etc etc… that actually get to start.

      However, theres usually more than that before qualify time. After that only those top 35, 43 etc for THAT race get in.

      Most of these are “On The Bubble” of getting in the race or not

      Known as Go or Go Home cars.

      What really screws it up is the start n park cars. If they didnt have the Start n Park rule then you either have the funds to race and FINISH the race or not at all.

      What Nascar FINALLY did right was change the restarts.. First cars are first instead of having the lap down cars start with the lead cars…(how that ever got started is beyond me)

  • AlbertHinkey says:

    thunder…THUNDER! Kachiga! Kachiga!

    Can’t tell you how glad I am to see this on the list under the “Plausible” category….

    I might take Chick with the thunder bolt over Mac car re-release
    ๐Ÿ™‚

    Okay, maybe I wont go that far.

  • louiseuk says:

    Whats the chance that we might see the 7 missing race cars at kmart day 4 or 5?

  • louiseuk says:

    Are all the 36 s.o.s cars except the apple car now out in one form or another? I need Tach,o,mint and gaskits.

  • Daniel says:

    The million dollar question: Which of these will be non-Lenticular?

  • John in Missouri says:

    Am I the only person who is excited about the 4th body style of Pittys? Bring ’em on!!

  • Dunroamin says:

    The end is near *sighs the bank account*
    The end is near *frowns the sad collector*
    Then there’s Cars 2………………….

  • Glenn H. says:

    Would it be a safe assumption that if something was spotted at Comic-Con that it will show up in 2010?

    (MET: Pretty much).

    • Monica says:

      For the most part yes, but not guaranteed. Richard Clayton Kensington and Brian Antenna Ball both appeared last year or the year before even and we have yet to see them. Also, Sarge’s hut playset and a few other things.

  • Flik'sFriend says:

    Bring on the bugs!!!!! ๐Ÿ˜†

  • Glenn H. says:

    Are we still looking for a couple of new haulers before the end of ’09?

    (MET: There are definitely two more CASES … and maybe more).

  • Kevin says:

    Great to see more Cars are getting made is there any word on these last 27:

    Leaf Face Lightning McQueen
    Guido with 10 Tires in one hand
    Bud
    Syd Vanderkamper
    Bernie Banks
    Tim Rimmer
    “Studs” McGirdle
    Mildred Byplane
    Miles “Meattruck” Malone
    Benny Brakedrum
    Bertha Butterswagon
    The Autobahn Society: 3
    Alphanumeros: 9
    Nelson Blindspot
    Chet Boxkaar
    Bennie Caliper
    Alarm Clock

    That’s everyone left from the finder.

    (MET: See the Final Lap visual checklist fr many of them).

  • Mike H says:

    Darn, I realized there was one racer not mentioned:

    Any word on Gask-its for 2010?

    (MET: That should fall under the Probable for 2010 but no definite word).

    • Murpheeie says:

      I am absolutely convinced that Gask-its is the UK promo car. If that is the case then I will get you one for $30 plus shipping. This is cost price (5 pegwarmers) as I want to help out those who helped me in the past. Hold on for another week and we will know. Gask-its is not scheduled for next year as TRU have a one year exclusive on the promo. Tach O Mint will soon be available as a launcher so there really is only one racer it could be. A postal strike in the UK is the only thing holding back the reveal!!!!

  • lost says:

    why is Tokyo mater listed twice under definitely for 2010
