Mattel Disney Pixar CARS: Precision Series Flo’s V8 Cafe – How Low can You Go?
Precision Series Flo’s V8 Cafe has dropped to @$48 but if you plan on opening and you don’t care about the box, you can pick one up for @$39 now.
“Michael VN,” sends along pics of his open box buy so you can decide if it’s for you.
Yea, if you didn’t get the “not mint box” option, you’d be peeved but you know what you’re getting and you’re going to crack it open anyway …
You even get a “free” INSPECTED BY AMAZON sticker!
Box opens easily.
But as you can see, the important thing is Flo’s works perfectly! “Michael VN” notes that pressing the wingnut on/off button triggers three different light patterns.
“Michael VN,” bought the optional AC Adapter. FINALLY! The problem with all battery powered playsets is that you’re always replacing batteries or having to keep track of when you installed them so they don’t leak and damage the components but now, finally, a playset that takes an AC adapter! Thanks Mattel & Disney!
Nice touch with the cracked sidewalk!
More pics coming in the next post.
Thanks for the great pics, “Michael VN!”
More OPEN PICS HERE.
So, if you’re an opener and want your own NON-MINT Box Flo’s V8 Cafe … @$39.
Or if you prefer a MINT box, $8 more buys you the nice box version. Or of course, one to keep and open to open. 🙂

But Texas Tea is on the original Flo’s playlet and one of Chick’s sponsors. And in quite a few places in the first movie.
All very true, but that was done for the most part in the independent Pixar era. Now it’s a Disney property, and they are all about trademarks, copyrights, and making money in the various aftermarket areas.
Probably pretty simple copyright protections. Everyone uses the term “Texas tea” for oil, but no one was using “Tulsa Tea”; so Disney copyrighted it, and now sells trademarked Cars items with that name instead.
Did anyone ever find out why they had to change Texas Tea to Tulsa Tea?
