Great lists! I have a few mentioned but not many! haha
One thing I always kick myself about is back when I was just getting into collecting I was at Target and they had all their story teller packs on clearance, and I thought, "eh I don't really need those guys too" and I passed up bins full! Oh how I wish I could go back in time and buy them all!
I also passed up a Tyler Gremlin pack at Walmart because I had too much in my cart already…. and thought, oh they will have those forever. Curses!!!!

Another thing, most Tokyo Mater Toons (especially Kabuto) seem rare. I think they were the last of the Toons to be produced.
Van San and Ito San were the Tokyo Mater peg warmers around here. I would say that Bye Bye Kar is the rarest besides Tokyo Mater w/ Oil Stains, he was mainly only found in Disney Land/World. I did amazingly find one though at my Wal-Mart.
BlueMustang, everyone has had those "'gosh darn it!"' times in their lives when collecting Cars. I passed up on a Dirt Track Doc and bought Lightning Ramone instead when they were in horizontal 3 packs. Then Lightning Ramone became a clearance single and Dirt Track Doc is now on e-bay for $30+. Also passed up Vinyl Toupee and Shifty Drug Haulers. And I regret not going to K-Mart Day 2 because then I would have every racer besides Apple.
Patokaa - I saw a couple at Walmart, and passed them up since I had already traded for 2. It was a one shot case release. A family member found quite a few Bye Bye Kars at a Walmart in Phoenix only one time, I either missed her or my Walmart never got her in.
No one really know what will become a rarity until later.
