Mattel Disney Pixar Diecast CARS: Happy 4th & All the Sarge Variants
Happy 4th of July!
Salutin’ Sarge wears his USA stencil proudly …
Original Sarge (2006) has the USA Stencil and the more white insignia.
The return of Sarge in 2009 meant he got some slight color variations including a darker green but also yellow stripes. his mold is more detailed and the tires are slightly darker. He also gets a larger stencil number but loses his USA stencil.
Strangely, Lenticular Sarge (2009-2010) has the USA Stencil (not photographed).
Pit Crew Member Sarge does not have the USA Stencil and essentially matches the return of regular Sarge (color wise and stencil wise) in 2009. Lenticular PCM Sarge look like this also. There have been reports of some PCM Sarge with the USA Stencil which makes sense as with all these Sarge’s in production, there was bound to have some mixed in together.
For CARS 2, there are two versions …
With USA Stencil and without – also notice slight color difference and lines around eyes of windshield.
So, er – collect them all.

Thanks for this Met, I appreciate it! 🙂
Happy Independence Day to everyone in the US!
Stay cool and have fun.
Is that PCM Sarge the rare dusty variant? ;-p
We’re thankful we have power and mindful of our neighbors who don’t. I’m sure a lot if them will be joining us for the Frederick fireworks tonight since Montgomery County’s were cancelled due to the power outages.
We finally got our power back in time for the July 4 festivities; that’s 106 hours without power. Looking into a standby generator (which is gonna put a crimp in my CARS collecting, but ya gotta have your priorities straight…).
We have a tiny little 2kw generator that would just run our basement fridge and portable AC unit in the event of a failure, bu thankfully haven’t needed it yet. If PEPCO was our power company I would certainly have a BUPS. PEPCO is still showing 6500 customers with no power.
Pray for those still without power on the East Coast!
Enjoy the holiday folks! Thanks for the detailed info on Sarge
Happy 4th of July!
