Disney Pixar CARS: Do It Yourself “Mechanic Set” CAR at CARS Land
One other diecast available at CARS Land is the Radiator Springs Racer (ride) “Mechanic Set,” which is in 1:64 scale and you assemble it yourself …
It is diecast metal with the rest of pieces plastic. You can decide on which options you prefer.
Choose between tires, mouth & eyes expression, rollbar and even if your diecast will ride 4 or 6? I guess one is for before you eat the cozy cone funnel of pizza and one for after. 🙂
“John H.” sends along these nice photos, he also notes that while you can take it apart – he does note it’s pretty easy to lose the parts – so far it’s only available as ‘the red one!’ Here it it next to the 1:55 assembled version (above) – the 1:64 do it yourself one is below (1:64 in scale – like Hot Wheels).
Thanks for the fun photos, John H.
As with the regular racers, only available at the Parks so far – this post has photos of the assembled diecast racers and ordering how-to.
If you purchase for your child be forwarned they are not really very sturdy for play. My son has this car built sitting in his “look at collection” as we call it along with his rare and super chase cars.
This looks exactly the same as the DIY kit for the Test Track cars at EPCOT … Except WITH eyeballs :).
Car on the left found the good meds.
Not a bad idea.
I can just picture some poor kid putting this together only to find out that it’s the Cars Land version of McQueen. Makes me think of Ralphie in “A Christmas Story” using his decoder ring to discover an Ovaltine ad.
