Mattel Disney Pixar Diecast CARS: Piston Cup Racers – Drink the 4-Pack
Coming this holiday season, more CARS to buy …
There are three 4-packs of Piston Cup racers coming …
And yes, now that they are calling him Spare O Mint, I’ll list him as such …
Maybe they will fix Vitoline’s mustache … and Rev N Go is also scheduled as a launcher so we’ll see which ones arrives first.
You do like McQueen, right?
No pricing info but I imagine it’s $17.99 to $19.99?
Of course, these are all re-releases but a nice starter set as even some like RPM – while technically has been around forever – he is not necessarily easy to find …
So stay thirsty and collect them all.
(and no NOT lenticular and NOT exclusive). UPDATE – NOW ONLY AT TARGET!

My plan is to wait til these are all clearanced at Tragic ..er Target…
like I did for that other Tragic box with 8 cars. All box sets go to clearance, dag nab it.
I hope they come in a clear display setup like the previous Target exclusives. I will buy them all for the simple beauty of displaying them in package.
I’ll most likely buy these… especially to get Rev n Go! What a cool car! Anyway… looking forward to these coming out even though it’ll cost us some dinero!
just incase you dont know this, i found these on ebay, RUBBER TIRE KMART CARS, THE NEW ONES, NOT THE 9 WE ALREADY HAVE..

THIS GUY IS OUT OF Sherwood, Queensland, Australia, AND HE IS SELLING THE MATER THE GREATER STUFF, ALONG WITH THE SECURITY SUV AND SOME OTHER COOL STUFF, PRICES ARE WAY TOO HIGH BUT AT LEAST CHECK IT OUT..JUST CLICK ON THE STORE OR LIST TAB..
so toupee n2o cola, rumor is rev-n-go, what are the other 4 if there is seven
um… that sucks! But at least we’ll be able to get them here shortly. Not paying those prices for sure!
Damn…come on Sidewall Shine! Please on the Kmart Cars Day III.
i got my apple car from this guy. It was a factory second, but great for display.
Leakless, Octane Gain, Revolting, & Trunk Fresh
proof? not questioning you,but would like to see some info
I’ll buy #1 for the Fiber Fuel and another Spare O Mint… I’ll buy #2 for the Rev N’ Go… Mattel will have to pay me to get #3…
I like the idea of a different McQueen in each 4 pack.
Martin – you and your team do a great job with the design… if only the marketing and sales department were up to the occasion.
So, is red paint just way cheaper than every other color, or is Mattel repackaging the McQueens that have been on the shelves forever (in my dreams)? Why, why, why must this be such a pain? I probably will resist these as I haven’t bought Re-volting yet because of this same situation. Frustrating!!!!!
Red paint is the most expensive of the basic colors
Then they should definitely conserve the red paint. It won’t hurt my feelings, I’ll understand.
Ladies & Gentlecars,
At least some new Racers are coming your way. Again, not my call.
However, just yesterday one of my Engineers showed me first shots, no deco, on the Christmas Special and Sarge’s Boot Camp four pack and they are cool/must have in a diorama packout.
Mainline I believe, not exclusive. Maybe I’ll send Met some pics? New product is coming, please don’t buy stolen merch. Not worth it
Thanks. That would be great. Can’t wait.
I don’t mind the extra cars even Lightning. My son is always looking for a “shiny” Lightning to race or go in Mack. I just wish that instead of Lightning in every pack maybe Lightning in one and chick in another, and the king in yet another, that way you can spread around the doubles.
Just a thought, keep the new ones coming.
Gotta race ‘em all.
When is the next KMart day??
(I know……..shame……..shame…….not to know that one!)
I would like some more info as well…LOL
Oct 20th or in that area, what ever the Sat is !
October 17th… which is a really, really great day to have this!
Imagine, Kmart throwing a birthday party just for me, and having all these nice NEW Cars!!!
Those of you mentioning KMart Day III Cars should remember that those will most likely have rubber tires while these 4-Packs and Launchers will not.
I sure hope Rev-N-Go comes out on a Pit Race-Off Launcher and not a Lightyear Launcher. I do not think we will be collecting the Lightyear Launchers unless absolutely necessary to complete the collection.
By the time the holidays get here, I can’t see a reason why anyone would need to buy these, even without K-Mart days.
hmmm i think ill hold out for Kmart too
More money grabs by Mattel…this is starting to be RIDICULOUS!! and they call ME a Pirate????
Aaaarrrrggggghhhhhhhhhh!
That’s for sure. Yet my stock doesn’t seem to be going up much at all. Maybe the constant barrage of L.M.’s isn’t working as well as they had hoped. If you’re going to package a L.M. in EVERY 4 pack, then at least change up which one you’re adding. Put finish line in one, tongue in one and reg. L.M. in the other. But, selling #3 as is with L.M., RPM, The King & Trunk Fresh is SAD. Each one EXTREMELY easy to get. This is a total MONEY GRAB. Enough is enough Mattel, really. Start putting out fresh assortments. Is this going to be the way WM can sell Non-Lenticular? I think your sales are really going to suffer this summer. W.M. is totally backed up with Lenticulars and as far as I can tell, Target has s l o w e d way down on clearing anything off the pegs. And since we have quite a wait for Cars 2, I would imagine A LOT of non-collectors will stop spending money as this brand fades from the front lines. Kids and parents alike are going to get tired of seeing the same old items hanging on the pegs. Pirate Dad even mentioned in an earlier post that his son ran off to a different toy section when they were out shopping. That’s exactly what happens when you don’t keep the interest up. Sure, there’s KMart days and SDCC and blah, blah, blah, but that’s NOT going to keep a kid interested, that’s going to keep the collector interested. Might as well stop selling these things retail and start doing web based sales only. What’s the point, Mattel is FAR from satisfying the retail market anyway, why not just move onto collector status and call it good.
Waht he said!
not complaining, very cool but why does mqueen have to be in each 3 pack.. a bit much i suppose…but then again they need to do something with all of those extra mqueens
Gives those customizers a pratice board???
Will Finish Line McQueen (tongue sticking straight out) be released by itself?
Will be buying them all! Wasn’t going to get RPM #64 but don’t currently have him..will pick him up in this bundle. I just wished instead of Trunk Fresh they would have put Sidewall Shine. Damn you TRU Promo. Never got one….
I am sure when these come out we will start seeing a bunch repackaged with King or Chick etc and back on the shelves. Not a bad set though for those that do not have a lot of the racers.
).
(MET: If we only had a tiny devil and a tiny angel CAR to tell us what to do
I want to see someone replace all 4 Cars and return the package with 4 Lightning McQueen’s.
that’s funny!
I WANT THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My apologies that this is off topic but just saw this on the TRU website
http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=3544759
Looks cute
hehe, mini spin out mcqueen
Make a 6 pack with only RPM, Spare Mint, Fiber Fuel, Rev N Go, Trunk Fresh, and Vitoline and it’d sell like hot cakes!
I will wait for the Kmart 3 CARS and won’t need to get any of these!!
Ugh, pass. I’ll acquire the “new” racers in those packs via some other means. Be it launchers or hopefully at the next Kmart event for at least Rev n Go.
They couldn’t have replaced Leak Less by Tach-O-Mint on Pack #2? I think Leak Less has been re-released enough times by now, no? What is he, McQueens long-lost cousin or something?
Ooooo…ill buy the first 2 cus i need 2 of the racers in each,
confused about vitoline,
in the movie he had no front grill,
but the vitoline launcher did have…?
so when you say fix the moushtash…do you mean release with or without?
http://carsdriveingallery.com/Vitoline.html
I’m confused too. I have a Vitoline (from the launcher) and it does not have a grill. Yet the photo of the Vitoline launcher from this site has a grill. Which one is correct?
It’s never had a grille. The image on the launcher was a pre release photo, possibly a photoshopped image.
great, so three more cars to get Rev-N-Go!
Rev N Go will also be available at the October KMart event. It will have the rubber tires too.
Any info on that? Thankz.

That’s pathetic that these can be purchased on evilBay before it’s release in October! They seem to be streaming out the back door! And they are even in the package, not loose! WOW!
Not only that, but he supposedly has Kensington, and alot of the Tall Tales stuff. Mattel should sue his @$$ or at least prosecute him for theft.
Looks like the seller ended the auction early and it is no longer for sale. Hmmm.
whats up with Australia, they get everything before we do, did you look at his other auctions, most is unreleased stuff, mater, suv, met any info on this, is there a factory over there or what.
