Mattel Disney Pixar CARS 2 Diecast: Oversized Deluxe Check List 2012
Here are the other (oversized) Deluxe listed for 2012.
Minion Forklist – Muggsy Liftsome
Taco Mater
Taia Decotura (Tire Talky Truck)
Sgt. Highgear – The Queen’s Palace Guard (Illustration)
Pickup Woody (no listed name yet)
Andy Gearsdale.
Kabuki Mater
Priest (Padre) – most likely will be different color than the Padre from Toons.
And Holley Shiftwell with Guns
Of course, this is just a list – changes could/will/often occur but for now, this is the carded deluxe-oversized release list.
Will there still be oversized-deluxe CARS in 3-packs? Unknown as of now.
Also note, Monster Dracula Mater & Materhosen (out at the Disney Stores) are not on this list.
Store swapping? Well, that is just bloody brilliant!
man theses are great. ive been store swapping sub finns by the dozen. still no luck. they keep coming back in, by the truck load it seems. check the (pda) the other day, the worker said ”they have 38 of them at this target, u should go there”.(yeah i thought) i didn’t think i swapped that many but none the less, no new finds, have showed up yet. but it looks hopeful now 🙂 :).
happy hunting
-flop
I was toying around with the idea to stop buying these with the release of the Queen, but these awesome characters are drawing me in. Let’s see how easy or hard Mattel makes it to give them our money….
These look great, who would have thought we would see a deluxe/mega pitty?
However, the fact that most stores seem to have just a terrible assortment does not bode well for good will hunting. Oh well, just get a case and split it, I guess.
The excitement I’d normally feel for these releases is dampened by a couple of factors.
For one, my stores still look like they did in May. That may be an exaggeration, but there’s just so little change on the pegs. I feel like it will be ages if these ever show up, if they do at all.
For another, the Disney Store versions of these cars may not satisfy those who only collect Mattel scale or prefer Mattel’s quality, but the fact that we’ve already seen so many of these in 3-D form makes it less exciting to anticipate that first in-person look at a new car. That also goes for Mattel’s own Padre, the playset Tire Talky truck, and another incarnation of Holly.
That said, I’m really looking forward to Muggsy…AND Andy Gearsdale may be the coolest car EVER!!
Why would the pickup be a Deluxe/Mega release? Maybe he will have the surfboard after all, so he would be a straight-up repaint of the ultra-exclusive John Lassetire release.
Yes, you are right they really look alike… http://www.takefiveaday.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/John-side.jpg
Leland Turbo and Mama Topolino still have not made an appearance at any store in my area. Distribution continues to be a mess. Targets reset here did not add new diecasts. Only the plastic quick changers were new.
The oversized case mix must improve in 2012. These look like great new additions.
I am looking forward to all of these except for perhaps Padre… Bring them on!
Would be AWESOME if Holly with Guns actually has the rear wing!
I second that.
Third it.
Wow! Some very cool releases there. Let’s hope they get case contents and distribution right.
Neat!
