Mattel Disney Pixar CARS Diecast: Toons Are Coming Back
Toons are definitely returning … Only problem is so far, they are coming back only in 3-packs and as a Walmart exclusive. We also don’t know what’s in the 3-packs.
There are 4 3-packs listed (no breakdown of contents) … in a perfect world, they would be 3-packs for the missing shorts:
El Materdor
Private Eye Mater
Moon Mater
& Time Travel Mater
But that might be too much to hope for … most likely we will get Mater & McQ plus one other CAR re-releases for: Rescue Squad Mater, Mater the Greater, UF Mater and Tokyo Mater – so it might be nice or it might not be much of anything for longtime Toon collectors. For newbies, any Toon release is good news.
And hopefully, there will be more singles news on Toons.

Good luck to me finding these. Checked 3 WMs tonight for CARS…2 of them had eliminated pegspace for singles. The 3rd had a few Francesco’s and that was it. The 1 target I stopped at had what was left of the Axlerod case. How old is that case? Quite depressing.
Good news indeed. But the exclusivity is going to be somewhat of a problem 🙁 Never collected Toons other than a few here and there. Can’t wait 😀
Very exciting news!! Bring on the TOOOOOOOOOONS!!
“Bring on the Toons!” “Where are the Toons?” “Send in the Toons!”
Kmart exclusive Deluxes and now Walmart Exclusive Toon sets.
What is next?
The Tormentor with pink Tia Mia with cowboy hat! I’ll buy that !!!
This is good for me since I wasn’t collecting when Toons were originally out.
Dammit Mattel. U never shipped any final 2 waves of tokyo Mater to many parts of Asia even when it was made in Asia! Now u still insist to ship it to USA and only as Walmart exclusive? WTF? WTF? WTF? WTF? WTF?
Wow! Is that the same keyboard you type emails to your mama on. Lighten up dude, its just toys!
😆
I think he/she was just super excited about new toons! What Toons Found? Where Toons Found? Which Toons Found? Who’s Toons Found? Walmart Toon Finds (anyone? anyone?)?
Talk about a good news/bad news post.
The good news: a line we loved and was disappointingly suspended a couple of years ago is finally returning.
The bad news: a line we loved and was disappointingly suspended is returning as a Walmart exclusive. So unless you want to spend hours of your life constantly checking Walmarts, you may not actually be able to buy them at the store.
Let’s hope this means a total return of the Cars Toons lines and the Walmart 3 packs are only a part of a much larger production and distribution with all the retailers getting some.
Guess we will see. With Mattel you never know.
Excellent news!
I always wondered why Orderly Pittys 1 & 2 never had more companions, so maybe we’ll get those this time around too.
