Mattel Disney Pixar CARS 2: Mattel Crabby Boat Coming
There is a new listing for a Mattel Crabby Boat … no photos yet and it’s lumped with other “transport” vehicles … that are quasi-carrying cases …
Such as “Spy Train Transporter.”
And “Mack Transporter” which is probably a re-release of this with updated packaging graphics and probably CARS 2 Lightning McQueen?
The Night Skyline was a Walmart exclusive – the new one does not seem to be. Since Mack does not have a lot of lines in CARS 2, I’m presuming they are simply reusing the same lines from this one?
So, presumable Mattel’s Crabby Boat will hold 4-8 CARS and act as a small carrying case of sorts but also be kind of playset …
It seems to be listed for the holidays so … the UPC for he Crabby Boat is 7-46775-10226-5. The UPC for the Spy Train Transporter is: 7-46775-10225-8 and Mack is 7-46775-10224-1.
Finally saw Action Agents Crabby in the stores last week. Too small to use with the 1:55 cars. Hopefully this new playset/car carrier will be better. If they are making Crabby for the 1:55 cars, maybe they will make the big battleship too.
Yay! More crabby boats! Sig has to be stoked. They previewed his scene a little while ago on “after the catch”. He seemed pretty proud of the opportunity. I will definitely collect them all!
If its the Bus they sell here at Tesco – it carries about 7 cars, the top deck of which fall out each time you open them……
My son has the transporter but I dont think it talks-is there a non talking version?
It came with 3 of the tuners IIRC.
By the way, the Mack Transporter that Met pictures above has Bug Mouth McQueen. Not sure if everyone knows this, but there is another Mack in the exact same packaging, only that one carries Dirt Track McQueen.
Sooo… Between the DS Crabby Boat, the “Action Agents” Crabby Boat, and the Mattel carrying-case version, that’s three different Crabby Boats.
Not sure I need that many; do any of them at least, I dunno, float?
Was that a prototype or a released toy?
The Mack Transporter with the vinyl sign was a prototype.
Oh COOL! I wonder if the Crabby Boat will be about the size of the Double Decker Bus Carry case …. look forward to seeing that one 😀
They need to release the Mack Transporter with the flip down vinyl sign!
This is the one I want released: http://www.takefiveaday.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/mack-vinyl.jpg
we can dream, can’t we? 🙂
I want one of those too!
Wow, that’s cool! It’s funny that Doc would have been included with McQueen; as if to comment diminuitively, “hot shot race car.” Only in the case of that release would the family Manifold add any transporter to the collection.
