Mattel Disney Pixar CARS: Micro Drifters Driftwood …
It looks like we have seen the last of the CARS Micro Drifters …
Unlike the PLANES Micro Drifters, they are on a first-staged clearance – from $5.99 to $4.18 in hopes of at least breaking even … PLANES Micro Drifters which never sold very well went immediately from $5.99 to $2.99 so these will drop a little more if they don’t sell at $4.18.
There is a listing for PLANES 2 Micro Drifters but it’s unknown if they actually made it to production and whether they will actually make it to the store shelves.
“John H.” notes that the Mattel website does not list the Micro Drifters anymore … for what that’s worth.
The Micro Drifters are a neat idea but from a parental perspective, IMHO $6 is a little steep for three very small and easily-lost cars, while a diecast for less is a solid bet and not easily broken.
18 is correct. 16-18 came out in early January 2014 and there’s been nothing new in the line since.
I found the newest 3 pack planes micro drifters at Target on clearance. Sun wing Arturo, Racing Dusty.
that makes 18 in all.
Went to a target today. Micro drifters were gone. They must have taken them to goodwill cause the pegs were gone as well.
Also got the planes action shifters playset for $7.50. Still trying to decide if I should keep it, even at $7.50. It just seems like a lame playset. Have the skytrack challenge which is better imo.
I got the Planes Micro Drifters for $1.78 each at Target.
Found them at 70% at one of my Target today … left them there.
I am kind of happy about these being almost gone.
Don’t get me wrong, I like the Micro Drifters, but they seem to be huge pegwarmers in my area. My Target has had full Planes Micro Drifters pegs even with the sale. They get annoying to see after a while.
Maybe, if they are characters I really like, I will get some Cars and Planes Micro Drifters packs.
Walmart still has them at full price.
Met’s right though. The planes micros went on clearance first in my Targets while the Cars micros were at 4.18. Target people said 2 weeks ago they would clearance the Cars micros in a few weeks. Sure enough,
At yesterdays start of the 70% off clearance sale at Target the Cars micros were still marked at 4.18,but the scan said 2.98.
So if you want these you can find them at Targets all now marked down to 2.98. The selection for Cars is spotty. I found most of the townies luckily.
I bought some Cars Micro Drifters for $2.99 a couple of weeks ago in St. Petersbugh, FL. as well.
I bought several packs of the Cars Micro Drifters a couple weeks ago for less than $3 each, not $4.18.
