Mattel Disney Pixar CARS 2 Diecast: Let This Be a Warning To You All (CARS 7-Pack Buyers)
If you’re planning on buying the “upgraded” Target “Tokyo Race Day 7-Pack.”
“Wraukn” notes that you have to LOOK VERY CAREFULLY!
He found some where Darrell Cartrip AND Brent Mustangberger have NOT been upgraded and are still the 2-piece versions. SO LOOK CAREFULLY!
(Yes, David Hobbscapp is still in this box so it’s not like they were swapped out … or if they were, the swapper guy is dumber than usual). 🙂
Thanks “Wraukn” for the heads up & photos … if you’re confused about what you should look for, you can read this post but the most obvious thing is that Brent Mustangberger should NOT have a crease across the front faceplate/grill …

The sets I have seen at local Targets in Houston were the one piece..
Of the 4 Targets in Western Mass. and Northern Conn. I’ve seen these sets at, all had the 2 piece bodies.
I have seen 2 of these sets so far and neither of them had the upgraded Brent and Darrell. :-{
No evidence of the one piece darrel and david in my neck of the woods…other cars are tho
I saw this at one Indianapolis Target on Tuesday… both Darrell and Brent were upgraded… Max was one piece… but of the 2 sets, Max had paint chips in one box, and in the other box David had paint chips of the roof… I was ready to pay the $29.99 plus tax had both been good… In California, the set is $35.99 plus tax (near San Francisco).
I’ve decided not to collect the unibody variants because by the time 2013 ends, I would have a whole shelve full of them.
I STILL haven’t found the Brent/Darrell 2-pack and I refuse to buy this set, even though it has David.
I’ll just buy him on eBay loose like I did with Frank Clutch and Hydraulic RS Ramone 🙂
