Mattel Disney Pixar CARS On the Road: Open Look at Sarah Coggs and Noriyuki
From the short, SALT FEVER … Sarah Coggs and Koriyuki.
While Sarah is a typical Pitty, the googles and hat are cute and a nice new touch …
Noriyuki is an all new diecast body with some fun touches.
In the short, he appears to be lugging around metal and wood pieces.

These are very cool diecasts, I hope to be able to find these in stores. I am also pleasantly surprised by the details in Sarah Coggs goggles, at first look I thought that Mattel put her eyes inside her goggles, so if you were to take off her goggles her eyes would be painted underneath. However this does not appear to be the case! It looks like they actually painted her eyes and put clear goggles over it. Well done Mattel, for not taking shortcuts! 🙂
Interestingly, the forklift is secured with the “rivet,” but the truck is held with screws that use the triangular screwdriver. The roof as well as the simulated metal/wood cargo are plastic and that’s what they screw into. For fun, I put it back together without the materials as the front screw will keep it mostly together. There also are a pair of silver “Jerry” gas cans that are held by the material. I put it back together later. Was fun to imagine it was used for Mater’s transformation.
The font Mattel chose for the packaging is awful. It’s Noriyuki — there were similar mis-reads with Kay Pillar-Durev.
(MET: Thanks, I’ll fix).
