Oh, thanks John. Well then, this Disney Store Mater set is an easy pass for me. I hope we will see the Mattel scale Ivan or Mater-in-Ivan-disguise soon….
John said:
Shouldn't Mater and Ivan be the same size? They probably came off the same assembly line the same model year. Perhaps Ivan was an export model, maybe even assembled in another country, but other than trim changes and later modderfications, they'd be identical.

found the next chase cars…
stealth mater (one on ebay buy it now for $45)
patrol finn mcmissle (none on ebay)
both have chase stickers, not sure of the difference in patrol finn and security finn, the only thing i see is the name on the case and the cardboard "background"

I don't think Disney Store has done a Security Finn before, for once Mattel's came out first.

Nice find Mike!
Either way just because of the background and that it's a Chase I have to get it.

I bet this security Finn will make sounds. They did that with the mater with the green tounge (I can't think of the official name) but he came out them a few months later
Came out as a chase and was exactly the same except he just made sounds. I love them though and want both!

nope niether make sounds nor lights as i have both….
your thinking wasabi mater whom has ONLY came out as a chase and all will make sounds, if you seen one not as a chase then it fell on the floor and case came off and someone put a none chase case on it at the store not knowing, hes never been out as a nonchase nor without sounds, also wasabi mater was the FIRST chase released way back oct/nov of last year

i also noticed none of the "chasers" as disney calls them say "cars 2" like security finn but only "cars"
i have noticed that as a new chase car is released the older ones are taken off the website and pulled from the store shelves almost like they actually want them to be limited
the only chase car available in my local store is stars n stripes mcqueen as well as at disneystore.com
and id like to point out my store only recieved the 2 chases i got, no more, so i dunno if more will come or if they are just gonna be very short printed, we will see with time

Wasabi mater that's it, i could not think on the name! He was released by Disney just not as a single because my son has him. It was a 3 car set with him and the little white Japanese cars (the ones that look like Guido). We have that set and I don't think he made sounds but the chase one.

ohh…yea he was available in the box set with sushi chefs it should also have sounds, maybe battery is dead he is called "screamin and hollerin mater" the set is called "wasabi diecast set" but i was referring to the singles in cases, i appoligize

Thats the one lol! And its ok lol i should have said box set, I got the set on clearance a while back at a Disney store while on vacation so I opened them right away and handed them to my son. I didn't even check to see if he made sounds (but just thought he didnt because I have never heard anything from him) I will have to find him today and change his batteries. Does he make the same exact sounds and the chase mater?

i dont know if they make the same sounds or not, id like to think they didnt just use the left over clearance that didnt sell and repackage it with a "chase" sticker and resell it lol but im sure thats what ahppened. it is ironic tho its the only 1/48ish scale in these sets that makes sounds…
its very likely they are the same car from the box set
on the topic of repackaging, look at lightning mcqueen(s) all of them, they all have the headlights and taillights from the light up cars, more then likely its disney saving money on castings

My fiancee just scored me two Stealth Maters. They had not recieved any of the McMissles though. Also she got a coupon for 25% off entire purchase the 19-22. The code for that is Disneypal.

Thanks for the heads up. The Stealth Mater is hot. I'm digging Black Mater.

Does the " DISNEYPAL " code still work? Would it work online with the Mia/Tia and Mcqueen Limited Edition that's on sale right now? Good deal if it does.
