Mattel Disney Pixar CARS 2: New Target Race Day – Alloy Hemberger Fan
The latest Target-only Race Day Fan 4-pack is out.
This is the last of 4 listings for these Race Day Fan 4-CAR Gift Packs. While they have not shown up in great quantity in each store, they seem to have sold well … despite the fact that there is only 1 new CAR in each 4-pack – though since it is harder to find most racers as singles and there are no other box sets at WM or TRU, it’s a nice looking set for those just starting out also. These should all be the upgraded unibody racers – Max Schnell and Miguel look much nicer in the unibody-no segmented face-no giant crease look – Nigel doesn’t make much of a difference frankly as he has a natural design seam along the front anyway so while it’s nice to get an upgrade to an all-metal diecast also, it’s not as major of an upgrade.
As noted, this is the last of 4 listings for the Race Day Fan 4-packs (they were just generically listed as #1, #2, etc …) but again, since these have sold well, it would not be surprisingly to have more added to the list though we may just get these re-released through summer until the Fall when the next batch might start hitting the shelves. There is a new 7-pack listed but there’s no real information, it simply reads Target 7-pack.
As for Alloy Hamberger, he actually looks quite nice. Very sparkly. Or glitter … or too glitter eyeshadow. 🙂
Very aptly named – Alloy – as he’s most likely zinc, alumnium and copper for his diecast metal body.
And as a fan of Max Schnell, Hemberger is a surname from the town of Hemberg or Hembergen.
Thanks for the great photos, “Mariela P!”

I have been looking for a mama bernoulli since I first saw the post for it here. checking targets religously for weeks I finally found one today. I noticed yesterday the two targets by me restocked all pegs, I was out today at work and near a target about 2hrs away from me and they had stocked pegs and two four packs with mama bernoulli in it. Check your local targets this week maybe hitting all stores. If in the GA area the target I went to was in Cumming on Market Place Blvd.
Ka-Chow!!
Does anyone have the UPC on this? Target is like 45 min drive from me, would like to call and see if in stock.
(MET: THe problem is Target uses one DPCI (their own product codes) for all 4-packs – so if the store is friendly, someone will go over to toys and tell you exactly what they have in the 4-packs but otherwise … what’s in the system doesn’t mean anything).
To my son, “look, it’s Max’s fan.” His immediate response “but why isn’t he next to Max?” Maybe he could make decisions for Mattel that would actually make sense.
Why Mattel? 🙁
Something positive… well… hmn…. well it’s nice that there ISN’T any LMQ or Finns in it… Still… 🙁
Looks very nice. How about a four pack of Alloy, Mama Bernoulli, Clutch, and Marty. Now that would sell.
Another 4 pack already? I have yet to see the one with Mama Bernoulli !
