Mattel Disney Pixar Diecast CARS: Massive Nitroade Conspiracy
As we all know, Nitroade is big with loads of money and can buy CARS like they were people … in fact, they even got RPM Pitty to be prominently featured showcasing their product on a WOC card …
But now, they’ve gone too far … as SlicePie-Jake reports in … They have packed the Mood Springs launcher with Nitroade.
“I’ve found 9 so far like this. Fiber Fuel, Easy Idle, and Nitroade all have the correct launchers.”
These are from SlicePie’s sealed cases.
He did get at least 1 correct one.
Anyone else opening up a case – what say you?
It’ll be interesting to see how massive of an error this is? Just a quirk in a few dozen boxes (most likely … but we shall see …)
So, if you’re shopping in a store, look carefully!
Thanks for the heads up SlicePie-Jake.
It’s always something, ain’t it … 🙂

Yeah..don’t tell me I got 2 boxes with that #$%@&!!!!
Our case came yesterday and both of mine are correct. Glad I didn’t get the error launcher-how are you gonna explain that to a 4 yr old??
Jake, any of your customers want to trade me one I will.
nascarnbroncosfans@msn.com
Probably a Team Sale/Swap behinds the scenes for some substance abuse policy in the racing community
My 2 are correct, well one is correct for the US, the other is on the international cardback and the last time I checked Virginia hadn’t left the union and became it’s own country if anyone knows differently on that topic please let me know because I will need to get a new passport.
Lets hope those darn showgirls are in mine!!!!!
I’ve seen 16 so far, and they are all correct. I kind of wish I had one of Jake’s Mood Springs with the Nitroade number… Error Cars are cool… and even more addicting than the rest of the Cars items…
Don’t care for the launchers anyway, just the car. Would probably sell the launchers if anyone wants them.
Can I buy one please ???
I can make you one 😉
Looks like a good way to get rid of some extra parts. Everyone just wants the car anyways, right?
The car is not so important I Have already 2 sots at home, I’m very interested by this error car in particular in ROR Card… this is my email : sketsnl@gmail.com, I’m french but I leave in netherland is it an probleme for you I pay immediatly from paypal If your price is good but I want to keep it in box ok ???
Hey Greg,
And everyone else interested in these. I don’t think I’ll have any extras (not even for myself 🙁 )as I am going to fill my orders and send them out as is. However, if I have any customers who decide to return them unopened I will somehow find a way to make them available to you all.
mine have the current number buttons.
mine were not like that and I had a full case
You get what you get when you pay someone pennies per hour to work in a factory. They probably have quite a few people on a line so I doubt if any “one” person will get fired. Hard to tell who did it. What’s sad is the “conspiracy” idea came to fruition here. Someone either intentionally or not (ha ha) packaged #33 on a #28 lanucher. C’mon, we can all see that happening, right? Maybe it was early monday morning and the Tsingtao or Snow hadn’t worn off yet. Or, more likely, it was Saturday and they were ready to go home. But then, one or more persons in quality control didn’t catch it. Maybe it’s the same person(s) that was checking the quality of the haulers.
Actually, I think Moe was working the line that day, and personally filled Jake’s order.
HAHAHHAHAHAHHAA I bet you are right…PitStopToySHop….we’ll fix him…. I can see it now…. Moe with spies from China to Mississauga, all on the payroll, just to make Jake look bad!!!
Whoever’s doing it is probably the same one putting all the Cars Mega Size items in the Hot Wheels cases.
😆 – You guys are evil!
I used Nitroade’s eyes on my avatar…………….
I had an avatar………uh oh………
conspiracy…….can anyone help, please??????
it is back
I only see it on the reply, not on the orginal post…did you send that $50 to PirateDad95@gmail.com like you were supposed to?? I hear that clears up all Take5 related problems!!
ok…….it’s in the mail,eh!
US or Canadian?
Sorry, only US$ transactions accepted..Canadian money is like Lane Mates….just not quite right!
LOL
Maybe they were swapped?!?! Someone wanted the elusive Nitorade and inserted the Mood Springs pegwarmer.
LOL!! Very funny!
Nice!!
That’s a one lap penalty for using the wrong pit, isn’t it?
LOL!! Very good!!
These will make for nice collectors items/variants no? Let’s see how many were sent mispacked. I will alert Engineering.
That is what you call the squirrels who put the cars on the launchers? Engineers???
It’s probably just the latest Chase car!
I will report back on March 23, 2011 when they start showing up in Mid-Missouri.
Try to find me a good one, will ya JOhn?
Yes, I will try to remember you PD!
Mine will be here on Tuesday, will report then.
how funny, someone is SOOOOOOOOOO getting fired LOL
Squirrels at the factory… seceret agents for Nitroade as well?
“Seceret Squirrel Agents”, explains quite a bit doesn’t it?
