Mattel Disney Pixar Diecast CARS: Shiny Wax Hauler On Shelves Friday?
According to KevinNascar & “crscrazydd”, when he asked about the “green hauler” in the TRU ad, they told him it would be on the store shelves on Friday …
So, send us a pic when you see it – I’m sure there’s a TRU out there with it on the shelf.
Happy hunting and thanks KevinNascar & “crscrazydd” 🙂
(and let us know what else is in the case …)
(also note – if it’s GIL on the shelves Friday, please do not punch anyone).

My step-son is 11 years old and knows his Disney Cars and Haulers, etc. When he came in and stated that he had been to TRU this after-noon with his real dad and saw the Shiny Wax haulers, I shot out the door to go make an attempt to retrieve one or both that he said were there.
Upon arriving, none on the shelf – looked all around the Cars aisles, nothing. Questioned a floor employee about the advertisement for the Shiny Wax hauler pictured as a feature vehicle, he said that it would be in the back with the Black Friday merchandise.
I don’t know which one of the above replies fits the best, but I will never believe a floor employee again. It would seem that we have been let down by TRU with it’s advertisement and their employees don’t have a clue – not funny!
Sorry to all who went in search of the Shiny Wax hauler on my account, but hopefully we will see it soon!
Checked for Shiny Wax hauler all over Toledo, OH. Nowhere to be found. Anyone else get one? Got one to sell/trade. jeversman at aol.com
Here’s something that doesn’t have to do with this. I saw Tangled today and I loved it. They had a trailer for Cars 2 with it.
None in Highland Park, IL (Chicago area)
No Shiny Wax Haulers in Indy… meh… par for the course I’d say!
I dont see it anymore on the online copy, but it was there. False alarm?… maybe but not by design
I was flipping through the hard copy of the TRU add and I do not see the add for the haulers ANYWHERE in there. Did this get dropped??? I also checked the online copy and did not see it … I was going to rush over there to see if they were ACTUALLY there at 10 pm …. but … looks like a false alarm?!?!?! Met??? Anyone else??? 🙁
I looked at the on line TRU ad right after Nascar posted the link and did not see it, and looked through my TRU printed ad in the newspaper and it was not there either.
Sent Met photos of the Cars Mack Hauler for Walmart:
Walmart has the Talking Mack Hauler with Lightning Mcqueen for 19.97 and Disney Cars Table and Chairs “Activity Center” 19.99
Heres the photos anyway…

Shiny wax haulers here in the UK, along with Jerrys, no stalls, and dinoco!!!!!!
Where did you find them?
Doug are they Multi – languages or only English???
Let me know as soon as possible
nascarnbroncosfansATmsn.com
Only haulers for past decade (it feels that long at least) on the shelves of my local Disney store & TRU are Mac, Gil, PV & Sidewall Shine!
Where did you see this pot of gold?
Maybe he got Sidewall and Shiny Wax confused because of the name?
More like Gil as they have appearred on the shelves again in the UK over the last week. with PV again.
“Come back Friday….when I won’t be here” is more like it.
Well its not Shiny Wax, but if you are still looking for the Bumper Save hauler/car/pitty set they are on Target.com right now for $21.99
Just ordered mine couple hours ago… 🙂
Has anyone got the ToysRus ad in their email?

Click next twice…upper right hand corner, but it does say ALL Cars items
Our local ToysRus already has a huge display of the Shake n Go Mack Truck and tons of cases of the Mater The Greater Set
Box on the MTG says: Black Friday Mater Set
Lucky you. In here there is no special on CARS except a 50% OFF on Mater de Greater Playset.
Was crazycarsdd’s nephew that saw it, and said it was shiny wax.
hopefully it is Shiny Wax
NO CHANCE.
We’ve waited a long time for the Shiny Wax hauler… hopefully we don’t have to wait too much longer.
I still want to know what a feature car is. the ad says feature vehicle or truck & trailers.
Our walmart is all set up for the midnight sale tomorrow, sadly the disney cars for black friday still showed enroute as of today. Manager said he is doubtful they will arrive in time. However he said he will keep them at $10 if and when they show up. I’m bummed.
I’m still going to hunt for the 4 pack on Friday but not holding my breathe.
However they did pull all cars out of the back before I was there today and the 3 pack lenticulars were well stocked with some I’d never seen. The lenticular pegs were full some with 5-7 of a style, 2 chase mater with oil can, all new deluxe wrestling toons, 16 mood spring haulers and 1 lonely gil and of course the old old old single toons.
Nice to see the shelfs full, now I just want them full of things I need.
Feature vehicle – Shiny Wax (as pictured)
8 Trunk Fresh haulers at our TRU. No back stock.
I’m not holding my breath for Shiny Wax showing up by Thursday night/Friday morning.
(MET: Trunk Fresh is greenish …).
don’t forget, HTB is green too 🙂
I find it hard to believe it is filling all these backrooms for Friday’s release and not a single one has made it to eBay…
Very good point Dunroamin…. I didn’t think about it at all!!! Knowing this I think I will stay in bed friday morning… 😉
Gil is green as well. I’d much rather have Chet the Gray Boxkaar, though. He’s a garbage truck, and Shiny Wax hauler may be in it. (Joke).
Reason I said that is a few years ago when Wal-Mart had the exclusive Oversized Cars in their BF ad, an employee told me they’d have all 6. Well – turned out they ended up getting all just Case A (Mack, Barney, and Al Oft) but no Case B.
Was the employee actually knowledgeable about Cars, or made an assumption that it wouldn’t be advertised if they wouldn’t have it? 😛
(MET: I believe there are 4 paths.
It’s correct.
It’s Gil.
It means nothing because you should never believe what a guy wearing a giraffe costume tells you.
It’s totally correct – just not that today).
There is no doubt in my mind that the employee saw the ad and just said come back for the special price on Friday. In other words, he don’t know Shiny Wax from Shinola.
“Shiny Wax from Shinola” That’s some funny $#!#. 😆
