Mattel Disney Pixar Diecast CARS: Some New Easy to Find Tokyo Mater & UFO CARS …
Well, maybe it’s only easy if you live around “AidensMom624.”
She had to get a bigger cart …
New card design, new snipe (Cosmic Paint Job!) and actual name of his character …
Clean Non-Oil Stain Dragon McQueen …
Drift Party Mater …
Now named “Kaa Reesu,” originally named Otto which was kind of an odd name for a Japanese CAR.
Now named Kyandee … also a name change from “Cho Variant” which was probably just some internal name because people had no idea what her actual name was.
Yes um, Mator metal – the cans are not and attached. You also get the stand.
And “Stripped Kabuto.”
Yea, just another deadly dull average run-of-the-mill CARS shopping day – ho humm, 🙂 These were on a TRU Cube.
Thanks for the nice pics, “AidensMom624.”
And at Target, apparently Final Laps are old news also …
And plenty of Color Changers …
Happy shopping!

I think that it is weird that some people have the same problem I do with Cars Toons Kyandee,MET.
Hi Take5ers! I found something weird in my Cars Toons Kyandee. The yellow stripe on the back of the car is crooked. It goes straight until the stripe reaches the blue half of the car. MET would you consider this an error?
(MET: It pretty much looks like that on mine also … error, sure but it’s prob the same for most).
I found all of these at a Walmart in Va. As I was checking out tho, the Mator with oil cans wouldnt ring up, the cashier printed out a little recipt saying the product had been recalled and he couldnt sell it to me. i begged and offered a lil ”extra” money. i even tried to talk them into scanning a diffrent car twice. no luck. is this a nation wide recall or just walmart? (i fought back tears as i left walmart)
Tyler and I stopped at TRU on the way into town tonight and found Stripped Kabuto, Drift Party Mater, Dragon Lightning McQueen (clean), and Kaa Reesu. No sign of the other new Singles nor the new Deluxe, but overall a very productive trip!
Found all these in Pittsburgh, PA at the Monroeville TRUs. I only bought one set (for my 4 y/o for Christmas), but there was still plenty of everything. I was shocked…we haven’t had anything new in ages.
Found all of these this morning! Finally, a productive trip to TRU! 🙂
Okay everyone – though I’d love to help ya’ll out with these – I have zero. I plan to get back over there this weekend, maybe I will have another “score” – and if I do, I promise will let you know. I have gotten 25+ emails asking for them – I don’t have any … I’m sorry !
(and BTW – the Target pics weren’t mine – only the TRU pics)
Angie :o)
Drift party mater is way too high. needs slammed to the deck, too similar to brand new mater.
Except that Drift Party Mater is MISSING his hood, unlike Tokyo Mater, who is complete.
$4.09 – $4.99 WoW
Australia price is $11.99 upwards, with the $$ conversion at 92c that means there is someone making a whole lot of money!!!!!
I wish we could get these here at a realistic price
USA – A OK!!!!

Wow! That Target must be from the utopian future. What I’d like to know is… does Mator glow in the dark? Like the old moon globes from Cap’n’Crunch in the early 80’s. Does anyone remember this? Anyway, congrats on the scores.
Seems like I remember those. Are those the ones that are hollow and snap together in 2 pieces? About 3 inch diameter. Red, blue, green? I remember I had some kind of green glowing moon thingy back in the day.
A glowing Mator would be cool.
Targets around here seem to be full of the latest Final Lap case. I’m liking the new case assortment.
Don’t bother with TRU, so haven’t seen, nor really care, for the new Toons cars.
yes, a white plastic globe that glows greenish-white, just like the glow in the dark details on Tyco slot car tracks in the 70’s/80’s. We need a Final Lap/Toon miracle in Chicago… or to move near the stores pictured.
Glow-in-the-dark Tyco slot car tracks — oh dude, you just brought me back to my youth!!
Right, for my bro and I it was the set with the 2 TransAms, one black with gold bird, and one chrome with red bird.
I will be heading to the local TRUs in my area in hopes of finding these guys. I am not sure they have cleared out the stock of the cube that they consolidated to the pegs last week. Nice scores there.
Anyone have a date for the next K-Mart day?
I’m taking my wife. Girlfriend is busy that weekend.
October 23rd.
I believe the next kmart day is october 17 . I read its on a sunday this time !! 11 :00 am
That is the date of the on line presales not the store event.
On-line pre-sells will begin on Sunday, October 17. One week prior to
the in store event on Oct 23.
Can anyone tell me where are TOON MATERDOR???? Chuy, Manifold Priest, Tia Mia as Senorita, Pitty the Alter Boy and of Course Mater and McQueen with their wonderful spanish painting ???? Comon Mattel for once make sense and release what should have been released long time ago…
The El Materdor CARS are a myth. They don’t exist. They are in an alternate universe. You’ll have to find a crack in the space-time continuum in order to get those CARS. Even though there were pictures of Chuy from SDCC, and rumors have been going around that he will be released “soon” (not sure what Mattel’s definition of “soon” is, but it’s definitely NOT one of the following: “before long”; “in the near future”; “at an early date”; “promptly”; “quickly”; “early in a period of time”; “before the time specified is much advanced”; “immediately”; “at once” or “forthwith”). It’s a bit like the JFK shooter on the Grassy Knoll. Everyone wants to believe he was there, but there’s no clear evidence of it. Same with the El Materdor CARS.
Ahhhhh!!!! Finally someone who can explain the El Materdor mystery… Okay now I can sleep thight! 🙂
Usually, I don’t collect Toons, but, these are so cool… I just have to get them.
Wow, great find! I haven’t gotten that many Cars since I litteraly cleared the shelves for Cars during the Desert Backs at a Wal-Mart in Springfield! That was the Desert back, way back in 2006! Our stupid stores can’t get any Cars in. We are too stocked up on Lightning McQueens, Leak Lesses, Kings, Chicks, Doc Hudson, and the Rescue Squad Mater Toons. Never even saw a sign of the 2010 Dragon McQueen w/ Collectors Guide. 🙁
Wow, Wow and more wow! What a score!!!
Amazing finds!!! Congrats!! I have not had any thing remotely close to that since Case E and the last Kmart Day … ohhhhhh, the good ole days …. sigh …. I hope they return soon.
My Ohio Target, TRU, Wally and K-Mart are all the same , NOTHING NEW !!!!
All have changed the asile around, but same old stuff. TRU pegs were full of the same thing or color changers. Been this way for several months 🙁 🙁
That picture wasn’t taken at any of the Targets in my area. Or at Wal-Mart! Or at K-Mart!
Hi Steve, I have collected cars from the beginning, I appreciate your posts and updates on new cars you find at the local stores around Tacoma, I collect final laps, chase cars and the seasonal collections. I have found myself running up to the Target on union street if you have posted they have new final lap cars, I usually check this site once a day, thanks for the all your updates and I agree this area has been boring lately.
Hi there,
I live in the south end of Tacoma, and, pretty much get around to all the Targets, Wal-Marts and TRU in Tacoma and Puyallup. Although retired I pretty much have a schedule that takes me to all at least twice a week. I’ve been collecting since day one- not intentional, just happened. Chuki Mama lives down in Lacey area. You can email me at A321196 at gmail.com
Wow! That’s a lot of new toons! I’m so getting all that!
Wow! Never seen any shelves like those, I’m in the UK and the TRU near me has had the same stock out for nearly a year. So I don’t hold much hope of getting any of these new ones for my sons collection!
matti and marty are exactly the same,even in the movie,its funny people probly wont get both beacuse thell think its the same guy,hahahah.
Nope. I thought so too until I bought them. They are all different. Matti is the same as Andrea, but again, different color and different headlights, and facial expression.
That is about how all the Targets look in my area. Plenty to pick from. I got mine tags down before they hit the pegs though.
drift party is incorrect from picture,and iwas really ticked about jay limo…his whole roof was plastic,andflos was too but she had alot of metal,jay is like a hot wheels.
Mattel obviously got Mater’s name wrong, too; should be Dr. Upschleppwagen. At least that would make sense; German-sounding word that could reasonably mean “tow truck.” “Dr. Abschlepp Wagen” means nothing…
Anybody know any of the writers who could confirm?
Still gonna buy this, though.
aww i wish we had target in belfast
Any one have the TRU item #?
Is the item number on the receipt ? I have 053223 for them (if that’s it).
Yes, its the one on the receipt. just checked that item number you posted, and is the same one for all the MTT singles on my receipts.
Can you post the UPC for them?
TRU always uses two numbers. The item #s are the same for an entire line, like for all lenticulars. The longer # on the receipt and on the back of the card is the UPC #. The UPC # is different for each set or character.
The UPC # is the one you need to call the store with. The item # is only good if you are checking on an entire line like for the Christmas bulb Cars in general but not a specific character.
I knew that 🙂
but thanks for the reminder!
item # is 053223
a few of the upc #’s 027084868173 — 027084917796 — 027084917741 — 027084763973 — 027084917789

Man haven’t seen our cars section look like that in over 2 years. I wish Target was in my town.
Just curious, who said that there was no torture.
Jealous!!!!! Jealous!!!!! Jealous!!!!!
As Mater would say, “I’d give my left 2 lug nuts” to see a Target with that kind of selection… There’s been nothing at all like that at the Target stores I’ve been to in Indiana or southwest Ohio…
Great scores!
STRIPPED KABUTO!!!!!!!!!! I’VE GOT TO HAVE ONE!!!!!!!!! 😀 😀 😀
You obviously must have taken a Target employee hostage and forced them to fill the shelves to capacity.
No ordinary Target employees would EVER allow such a ‘travesty’ to occur like the last photos.
