Mattel Disney Pixar CARS 2 Diecast: Celine Repeat Chase + Acer Torch Numbered
It was a little odd the Kmart versions of Celine & Acer with Torch were not numbered but I guess the reason is the versions with the Kmart logo stickers are not considered part of the mainline releases … these however are …
Celine #38 – a “repeat” CHASE.
And #34 Acer with Torch.
Someone had asked about the numbering and I figured they would eventually be assigned a number as these two Kmart CARS were not called exclusives but “first to market,” but I did not think they would re-released so soon … these are listed as coming in CASE K which is at least two cases away so CASE K might not be available until August or around Labor Day for the Fall reset?
These however are available in Europe – thanks for the great pics, “David V.”
Also arriving in Europe, the last two Movie Moments we just got:
Thanks David V!

our walmart has tons of finn, mater, grem, and francesco singles at 1.97
all the original 2 packs are 2.97-2.97, they are thinking of marking down the launchers soon since they have 20 cases in the back.
Kinda sad we wont see new cars for a long while yet.
All the newer playsets and the expensive mini things are out but not the drifters.
Hey, at least you have Grem 🙂
Does anyone know where I can get Acer with helmet and Profesor Z?
Got mine at Walmart. Seems to be where most people have reported spotting it.
ANOTHER Car that is first released in Europe. But I guess it’s fair for these two since they were only at K-Mart so international countries didn’t get them…. unless there are K-Marts in Europe.
#36 and #37…? I hate when Mattel uses gaps in the numbering scheme, it screws up what I have to keep track of (I have A LOT I’m currently looking for)
I think that Rip Clutchgoneski will be #36.
Not sure though.
OK, I’m going to think this too. I’m going to think really really hard, and then Mattel is really going to do it. 😉
Only problem I see with Rip is he’s not seen in any 2012 posters, websites, etc, which is why I highly doubt we’ll see Rip. But then again, this is Mattel we’re talking about, and they’ve proven to be a little off…
He is number 43.
Very nice… I like the international cardback. Great score, David V… thanks for sending the photos to Met to share with us.
Does Mattel REALLY need international packages? Is the character’s name on the rear of the card?
Yes the name is on the rear of the card, I prefer the US cards and living in the UK would much prefer we got the US cards, we do get the odd US card somehow? Then you can find the Euro card in another shop the next day, Just found these two Movie Moments at Asdas the other day…great find after weeks of nothing much,
Maybe the international packaging is to comply with the legal requirements of some countries?
(MET: Since all the translated character names for all the EU languages cannot fit in the tiny nameplate – it is simpler to go with the photo …).
I think but cannot be sure that some Deluxe! Mega sized have the names in dif languages on the front (I am not home). Also is it too much to ask for the UK to get the English cards which are way better IMO or would it be too much to ask from Mattel?
Wich Asda did you see the movie moments at? I went to my local one and they did not have them, I suppose not all Asdas, have them yet…
