Mattel Disney Pixar CARS: 2021 Advent & UK Disney Store
Thanks, “Tim L.” for the heads up & nice photos.
The 2021 CARS Advent Calendar is pretty cute …
Nice attention to details, notice the “snowman” in CARS World is really a “snow-car,” as why would they base a packed snow creature resembling a “huu-man,” who does not exist in CARS World.
I also like the giant snowball Lightning gets to plow around plus a nice Christmas tree of cones so if you were holding out on a real tree, now, no need!
The US Disney Store is low on CARS product but Amazon has it. Along with the Advent from last year.
This is a shot of a Disney Store n the UK, sadly in the US, we do not have this selection. (UK Store link).
But next year with a CARS Series on Disney+, the situation should change!

Hey Met! Your “huu-man” from the snowcar (nice observation, by the way) remark-are you referencing something from a show or movie? I also remember an alien saying human that way on a David Tennant episode of Dr. Who.
Or maybe that just gave you a chuckle. 🙂
(MET: It seems most ‘aliens’ refer to humans as ‘huu-mans’ as if it’s some infestation with disdain. 🙂 … of course, when you see people wrestling on the ground on Black Friday for a $15 air fryer, you see the point. 🙂 ).
Saw this set on the shelf at our local Target a couple of weeks ago. It was about $30 if I remember correctly.
Bait & switch. They show you last years Snowy Mater and Holiday McQueen on the box BUT actually give you a regular Mater and Muddy McQueen in the set. I believe this is the only way to get the white wheeled Mini’s.
Yeah, I noticed McQueen didn’t look right-it took your comment for me to see why. That is disappointing to get an incorrect McQueen and Mater. At least Luigi, Red, and LaVerne have white wheels.
In other photos I’ve seen of this set, McQueens snowplow is a separate piece and just snaps onto the front wheels of the car. So maybe you can snap it on ANY Mini and make them a snowplow? Red would look cool with a snowplow.

That’s really neat the snow plow is removeable! Nice catch on that.
I have a Hot Wheels Oshkosh Snow Plow that has a removeable snow plow blade which I really like, but it will only work with the snow plow. To have an accessory that could work with most, if not all, of the line it goes with is pretty awesome.
