Mattel Disney Pixar CARS 2 Diecast: CARS Take Flight for 2012, Pt. 2 – Moon Mater
As noted in the earlier post, there is a new series coming called CARS TAKE FLIGHT which will encompass all the flying craft of CARS going forward – in particular AIR MATER (covered in earlier post) and in this post MOON MATER.
This covers only the oversized “singles” diecast releases under the CARS TAKE FLIGHT line extension-series and does not cover any other possible releases and re-releases* under the 2-pack, 3-pack, box set of exclusives configuration.
* I’m going to out on the limb and say that some of these releases will be repeated in another configuration – any bet takers? 🙂
Mater Astronaut – Vertical Jets (important distinction in Part III of this post).
Lightning McQueen Astronaut
(And of course) Burnt Lightning McQueen Astronaut
Maybe I’m just cynical but with a Burnt LM on the list, it just feels that much more real. 🙂
And it just says NASCA Truck so it could be either …
Or maybe even both down the line since they are just repaints of Rescue Squad Ambulance and Dustin Mellows but here’s hoping NASCA Dustin arrives first …
Of course, you did notice the Florida clay-dirt along the side of NASCA Dustin when it was on screen for 18 frames in the lower right hand corner, right?
And a couple re-releases that are just marked JET & Rescue Chopper so it might be Stu Bop or another “Marco” jet with a new name and I’m not sure if Rescue Squad Chopper will get an actual repaint … but they are on the list.
There is a playset listing that seems to hint they are going to release this mini aircraft carrier as a playset but nothing official but seems likely.
No release dates.

HA! The boats roof is a captain’s hat! ahh, its looks like the glory days for cars just got back!
Great, One down and just one more to go. Are we due some Private Eye goodies?
Yes, please, something new-new. Like ROGER & IMPALA 13. Instead we will get Mater with rockets (cool), Space McQueen, Burnt McQueen and of course burnt-wet McQueen. Don’t forget more Marco repaints.
(MET: Don’t forget to come back for Part III).
Any news with new Cars is great news!
I would KILL for an Impala 13
Love the aircraft carrier!! But I’m not a fan of the planes…hope they mix in plenty of regular vehicles. (Like that old-school Mater plane though!)
New Toons couldn’t come soon enough. I’m on Cars-collector life support here.
Good news, good news! I can’t wait!!
But no Impala? 🙁
Looks like we may get a few more years of Cars collecting.
Ooh can’t wait for these!
