Mattel Disney Pixar Diecast CARS: Lenticular CASE R – Already Already in Australia
Hey, big surprise, LENICULAR CASE R is already in Australia.
Kind of an odd choice to make lenticular but okay …
Which of course means the Final Lap can’t be far behind or appearing before this case in the US?
And now we know why the whole Van with Stickers but came without stickers brouhaha happened …
It looks like they probably produced them at the same time and of course at the factory, who is going to waste time looking at the back? What does this mean? That a large % of “Van #61” will feature a Van with Stickers? i would not bet against it … Be the first on the block to send us a picture of a Van without Stickers with Stickers … then of course, pair it with Van with Stickers without stickers and you have the CARS Mistake Twins of 2010Ā® auction.
Don’t forget to credit us! š
And the true oddity of CASE R …
Yes, if this looks vaguely familiar, it is the same CHASE CAR of Case Q … so it could just be a typo … or they made so few of CASE Q that they had to put the rest of this CHASE MATER somewhere so here it is again.
So, when CASE R rolls around … we shall see …
Thanks for the great pics, “Hostile Takeover Bank,” and “Secret Oz.”
Can anyone please tell me what store they are finding Tim Rimmers in ?? thanks so much
Found Case R lenticulars today. Found 2 Chief No Stalls, 2 Tim Rimmers and a Chase mater. Iām on the East Coast.
Tim Rimmer looks nice. I can’t wait to get him!
Finally found a Chase Mater/Oil Can today…..Sears,of all places.
Hmmm i think i saw these in Singapore too, on international cards… and i thought i saw Van with a squiggly mouth rather than a smile. Didn’t see the chase though…
and they don’t even call him Roman Dunes…tsk tsk
Like the paint on Tim Rimmer… dont understand the 3 Dinoco LM ‘stop making the damn car’ leave it alone. Give the public at least more Rimmers, Boost’s and Snot Rod’s.
I have yet to see Case B in my location (JK… but yeah… it’s been too long)… seriously… š Last Lent. case was Bumper Fred and the one before that, was Chrome King… š
Is Chase Mater actually verified being pulled from Case R, or is this perhaps a remnant from Case Q, and the real Chase from Case R was already gone?
(MET: Case R hasn’t shipped yet so from list – could just be typo)
Agreed. I thought CHASE Mater was from the previous case? I have him and Milton coming form a friend who opened the case, so he is in the last case.
When I found the lenticulars someone had already taken the Chase car, however they did leave behind a Chase Paintjob MCQueen which was torn across the top. All the Kmart Cars I left were gone too. However I left all the Vans there and now I need to go back and check them. (which is never a bad thing).
This store (Target) has/had many goodies including the Tokyo Mater set with Crane, all the latest haulers, new lenticulars including Chase Mater, and Kmart day 5 cars. Shamefully, a K-mart in the same centre has had about 3 Lenticular Chuki’s warming the pegs for the last few months.
I thought that too. I think
R will have Paint Mask McQ after Kmart
T with Wrecked Hornet
U should feature Mater With Hood
V I’m guessing has Yeti with snow cones and the end.
W Wait, nothing, just an empty box! (It’s a joke!)
I’m guessing Case J will be
3 Dash Boardman
3 Tim Rimmer
3 Timothy Twostroke
3 Duff Wrecks
2 Lizzie
2 Milton Calypeer
1 Van with(out) Sticker, non lenty
One can only hope. What’s next? If this is real, don’t tell me there WILL be non lenty versions of Van w/ Sticker. Also, very intresting what you said about the Vans. I wonder… Also, if this is the real case (which I don’t think so) it’s awful. Maybe the lentys will end sooner.
Chase Mater with oil cans is the Chase for Case R. Found new case R today and checked to see what the Chase was. Definately was Mater oil cans.
There were 3 Vans and none had stickers.
I cannot seem to find an up to date Chase Visual Checklist, or even just a list…anyone??

…did I totally miss plain ol’ Lightning McQueen with Piston Cup, or was there never one of those released?
No Red Mqueen with piston cup was ever done
Thanks John, I appreciate it!
Now does anyone have the Over/Mega/Deluxe numbered list??
I like the lenticular chace cars that have removable accessories such as Mater’s oil can. The accessory can be removed and paired with a non-lenticular version of the same car. What is so sweet is that my Walmart has been selling lenticulars for $1.50 for months now – including new releases. So I say, “OK, I’ll buy that can of Rusteze for $1.50 and throw away the excess packaging (including the lenticular McQueen). OK, I’ll buy that oil can and throw the rest away.” You get the idea. I’m just waiting now for Filmore and his psychodelic all natural fuel cans. I’ve seen them at TRU but I’ll wait for Walmart’s price.
WOW our walmart hasn’t had anything new in months. I’d love to find the chase cars or anything new, esp. at $1.50.
Bah humbug!
Here we go again…
Interesting hypothesis about the Chase Van with stickers without the sticker… it makes perfect sense… quality control didn’t check all 6 views of each Car (top, bottom, left, right, front and back)…
Tim Rimmer looks alot like the loose “Houser Boon” that was on eBay several weeks ago…
Thanks for the photos and the story…
I have only ever found one chase mater with can so maybe the previous case was in short supply, Oh and YES! another mcqueen with shovel….cmon.
But jambouk, that has Aussie dirt on the shovel…..
Of course Aussie dirt and kangaroo poo!
Must find.
Has anybody in the UK managed to find chief NO STALL? i have only ever seen one.
Also for the 3 yrs i have been collecting i have never seen a mega sized DINOCO helicopter, Maybe i am just unlucky.
never seen chief no stall !!!!!!!!!! plus mega sized helicopter is the only one i dont have
so guessing uk was a no show!!
jammywin
I found cheif no-stall in tesco about 6mths ago, at the same time i found only my second small alloft, they were all on the US cardback and seemed to be in the same case as the kmart1 cars. Thanks jammywin.
I guess HTB and Secret Oz and Jeaks hired Mad Max to freight them in….
Nice work guys….
I guess that “Last of V8 Interceptors” is still getting good use
Yep I agree Dan. This case is pretty much a bust.
I do think Met is right though and we will see a new final lap case soon that includes Tim Rimmer. Hopefully Duff Wrecks and Johnathan wrenchworks as well. We have been looking foward to those two final laps.
I can’t believe they repeated the same chase car again. Can’t wait for the crazy googly eyes line to be laid to rest.
(MET: Final Lap update coming tomo).
Wow. Such a great case. 1 new car.
For me its 3. I don’t have Van, Tim Rimmer or Mater w/ Oil Can. Yeah, I got Supercharged error Boost with Lightning McQueen nametag before Van? Weird.
