Mattel Disney Pixar CARS: Tokyo Pit Crew 2021 Races in From Vietnam
Thanks, “Mark T.” for the nice photos.
I think this is the 1st time these 5 have been collected in one box set – from CARs 2, The Tokyo Pit Crew Box Set of “Race Team” CARS … these all contain the eyelid line addition – Race Team Fillmore & race Team Mater are in the recent 2-pack. The ones from Vietnam are slight variants with different eye positions so you can decide of they warrant another check on your list.
Beyond the eyelid line, Sarge is as much of a variant as every Sarge release from year to year … Fillmore is slightly different eye position from the 2-pack.
Mater, same slight eye position difference from recent 2-pack. Race Team Luigi hasn’t been out in a while, 1st eyelid line release.
Same with Race Team Guido now with eyelid line.

Why are Cars diecasts with headsets so captivating? Can’t wait to see this set in person! Walmart is the place to find these?
Yes, I found 2 sets of them this morning at my local Walmart. Target’s website doesn’t have a listing for the Tokyo Race Pit Crew set.
I was never interested in the characters with the headsets but I eventually warmed up to them. I think one thing about them perhaps is that they seem even more like us wearing the headsets-it makes the cars feel a bit closer to human maybe?
Update-I did see this at Walmart and Fillmore actually looks good. You can tell the difference but it does not detract from his appearance like I thought it would.
However, I think Mater looks awful. I can’t even quite put my finger on it, he just looks wrong. I would have to compare this release with an older one side by side to see what has changed.
RIP Fillmore
Nice looking 5-Pack. I don’t have ANY of these CARS, so that makes things easier.
These look great-I don’t have any pit crew members for McQueen although the NASCAR series would also fit the bill nicely. However, I think Fillmore looks terrible with plastic for the lower half of his face.
Of course, they look worse close up and when you have one in hand you realize how much smaller they actually are. I guess I would have to see it in person to decide what I thought about Fillmore’s design.
