Disney CARS TARGET HOLIDAY EXCLUSIVES

With Christmas quickly approaching Disney/Pixar along with Mattel have got their Christmas CARS release out and about at Toys R Us, Disney Stores and at Target. The Holiday CARS include Snow Day Sally, Holiday Spirit Sheriff, Holiday Hot Shot Lightning McQueen, Decked Out Doc Hudson, and Christmas Crusier Ramone. Target secured a 6 pack box set of all the above CARS but the 6th is the DEAL BREAKER MUST HAVE! (REINDEER MATER) Reindeer Mater is Jacked up on real rubber snow tires accented with snow and dons a cool antler tipped snow hat. A+++ creativity from the Disney CARS team at Mattel. The singles are good but the Box set is better! I will let the pictures do the talking!

I got Snow Day Sally in single form for my daughter since opening the set at the moment isn’t going to happen.

The Target Exclusive Box Set:

They could have packaged this as a single and shipped 20 cases to each store and I am willing to wager they would sell out in hours!

Disney CARS Target Exclusive Story tellers Cousins and Showgirls

The newest release of Storyteller singles have been popping up at stores across the United States. I was able tyo grab a set of the show girls Laverne,Rhonda, and Sheila as well as the cousins Cletus,Buford and Jud. Nice looking cars and kind of cool since they are something away from the norm. I am still patiently waiting the 3 pack versions to see the offerings.

NEW Disney CARS CASE D and E Lenticulars and Chase CARS

The flurry of Disney CARS Lenticular assortments Case D and Case E have been hitting various areas in various stores across the United States and Europe. The Case D contents have the the usual Lenticular “My Eyes Move” card back but with Case E that changes. The Case E card backs are now in the Final Lap Motif as well a HUGE change in the eyes. Instead of blinking or winking motions. These new “eyes” are ones that “follow” you. They are actually 2 sets of eyes hidden with the lenticular slides in the windshield. However some are very poorly done where you can actually see 3 to 4 eyes at a given angle. Pretty Freaky! I grabbed all the newer stuff including the chases (King with Piston Cup and Ransberg Darrell Cartrip) The Ransberg chase is pretty weak in my opinion. It is about as exciting and any of the “chase packaging” releases. But you can be the judge of that.

Disney CARS NEW Haulers, Piston Cup Racers Mini Adventures and a Lunch Box

A lot of new product is SWIRLING around from store to store. You can find the goods from the most obvious stores as well as the obscure. In the last week or so I have come across a VAST amount of new release items as well as items that have ben out but just have now hit this area.It has been a very expensive mont6h already!

Grabbed a pretty cool CARS lunch Box

Nabbed a Gil and FINAL LAP packaging WALLY Hauler

I also found a few Mini Adventure 2 packs I was missing:

Shiny Wax and RPM 64 Piston Cup Racers

Disney CAR TOON Dr. Mater and High Dive Mater

The new CARS Toon Maters have been rapidly hitting all the stores. I was able to get a hold of High Dive Mater and Dr. Mater. Very nicely detailed and solid weight to them. These two offerings make the CARS Toon line sensible in ways. Very nice transition from a animated short to a diecast replica.

2009 Disney CARS Kmart Collector Event #3 CARS Closeups

Finally after weeks of different things going on, I was able to set up the photo box and get some shots of the K Marty X Disney CARS collector day #3 exclusive Rubber tire racers.

Disney Store CARS Light Up Tunerz

This is a pretty late update, however a few weeks back I came across 2 Tunerz sets at the Disney store. These tunerz sets light up utilizing a a push button on the bottom of the cars as well as a switch that leaves them turned on. They kind of represent the nighttime neon’s they had in the movie when messing with Mack. I am a total tunerz nut and had to have the set!

Disney CARS Kmart Collectors Day #3

I was able to attend our local Kmart store and grab some Kmart Event CARS. I walked out with more than 100 CARS easily. It looked as if the collectors actually were very uninterested in this case assortment as I easily grabbed tons of everything during and after everyone picked what they wanted.

Disney CARS Target Exclusive PIT CREW SETS

Target’s 2nd Disney CARS exclusive for the Christmas season is the Pit Crew box sets. These sets are pretty nifty as you get the Pittys and crew chiefs for the respective teams. The ones that will be available are the Dinoco Team, HTB Chick Hicks Team, and the Leakless Team. Each box set has 3 different pittys (although some are reporting that their sets have all the same pitty in them) and the crew chiefs ( chick hicks and the dinoco crew chief have not been released before) Included are wheels stacks and a tool chest.

CARS TOYS R US EXCLUSIVE Sarges Bootcamp

I was able to come across a few of the Toys R US exclusive Sarge’s Boot Camp Megasized sets and brought them home with me. Not a bad set but it is pricey.
