Mattel Disney Pixar CARS: D23 Expo Cozy Cone Alarm Display Unboxing
Thanks “John H.” for the great pics and detailed info.
At the 2017 Disney D23, Mattel offered a Cozy Cone Alarm Clock Display …
Yes, it’s a display, it’s odd that it is NOT an actual working alarm clock but it does have a lot of cute features. It’s not small – about 18″ tall.
Nice box design.
Nice like the recent Precision Series playsets, you can add an AC adapter as opposed to batteries which you might forget to remove and they start leaking.
Briefly push the button on the base, the car pops out three times honking its horn and flashing its lights. The two dials light up very bright white, the “clock” spins around, the radio goes to multiple positions and the cone plays sound clips of late 1950’s sounding AM radio.
The car can be removed from its shelf and has been designed to snap in and out.
Lightning fits nicely.
More pics of the ALARM CLOCK CAR in the next post.
If this were a functional alarm clock I would be all over it
I’m with you, it’s cool, but I’d rather have seen a die-cast Syd Vandercamper or something like the Convoy Bros set…

I’ve seen a note that they were $50.00, or $53.88 after tax.
Also, everything I’ve seen says they are about 8″ tall — not 18″.
8″ tall with a 6½” d. base.
As you said, $50 + local sales tax. (as of July 1st 7.75% in Anaheim)
Just curious, how much did these sell for at D23?
