Mattel Disney Pixar CARS: Still Christmasy …
Stopped by a supermarket today (Safeway) off the beaten path and saw this … not only did I not see the Pixar CARS Christmas CARS display last year but weird that the only CARS left over were Sarge with Lights and the Reindeer CAR … weird that people bought the others and thought, uggh, Reindeer CAR, who wants that?
Not sure what was regular retail at Target was but priced here at $8.99, 25% off …

To clarify Met.
Santa Claus’s reindeer. Wikipedia.
The 1823 poem by Clement C. Moore, A Visit from St. Nicholas (also known as ‘Twas the Night Before Christmas), is largely credited for the modern Christmas lore that includes eight named reindeer
More rapid than eagles his coursers they came,
And he whistled, and shouted, and called them by name;
“Now, Dasher! now, Dancer! now, Prancer and Vixen!
On, Comet! on, Cupid! on, Donder and Blitzen!
To the top of the porch! to the top of the wall!
Now dash away! dash away! dash away all!”
I think I will stay with eight,…
as “Rudolph would arrive a century later, with the 1939 story “Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer” which was written by Robert L May and published by department store, Montgomery Ward”.(news.co.uk.Ross McIndoe.December 22, 2022 3:04 pm)
…away, dash away all.
I am one Reindeer short of nine altogether.
Dancer.
I need to buy one more!
(MET: And you can pry off the red nose from one of COTR Circus CARS to make RUDOLPH … or Im guessing any craft store has a red plastic one but go all out and get one that lights. up …).
I expected the Reindeer to have sold out considering we have been waiting years to get them released.
Bought two separately off ebay, then scored a great deal on carslotsales of six Reindeer for the same price as the first two.
Who but collecters would think of buying a set. That is how I got the team of eight Reindeer.Dasher.Prancer. Vixen. Comet. Cupid. Donner. Blitzen and Rudolph.
The Christmas line was not released in New Zealand.
No 2023 Cars for us yet.
The things we/I do for Cars Met.
“Who wants the Reindeer?” I’ll take ’em! I’m still trying to army-build! XD
I have plenty if you are interested. How many you need?
I’m about halfway there. Currently have four, but I think there are eight altogether? (Not counting Reindeer Mater)
I sent you a message through the Forum “selling cars” did you get it?
(MET: Is it still up?? If not, email me and I can forward your email).
Found the forum, but didn’t get the message.
I managed to score the McQueen last Christmas. Funny, it was in the Hot Wheels and I had no idea they were coming back
