Disney Pixar CARS: New Disney Store “White” Tractor
“David D.” found something interesting in the Disney Store …
A White Tractor …
I have never looked closely at the scenes with the cows-tractors, are there mostly white ones intermixed with the tan & brown ones?
The back of the card still shows the older design but that may not mean much as Disney Store CARS packaging do not get a lot of updates.
David D. was nice enough to include the Disney Store product code – is it the same as the other Tractor? New numbers?
Interesting …
From any of the Expanded Universe CARS storyline? Books? Comics? Video game? CARS LAND?
CARS2?
Maybe it all depends on the product number – if it’s the same as before, it seems to indicate a “permanent” design change … maybe in the next Toons or in CARS 2, the tractor colors more accurately reflect a typical Holstein milk cow? Was there a Bovine FaceBook petition group all up in arms … or rather that it was udderly ridiculous that the tractor cows were all brown & tan?
But if the product numbers are different, we can probably presume the white ones are just an addition … or some albino CHASE? Will there be a mad, mad run on both?
Better hoard just in case? Whey you be the big cheese of Disney Store tractors in your area? Will the gathering of the beasties be a milk run? Or will you get creamed by a cow catcher? Don’t worry, I won’t cry over spilt tractors … happy grazing!
So, thanks for the nice pics, “David D.” – clearly you have opened a can of condensed sour milk worms … as the old saying goes.
BTW, in case you’re curious about the size of the Disney Store tractors – here they are next to Mattels’ Mater & Lightning …

Met,
which version of Mcqueen is in your picture in front of Frank?
(MET: Micky?)
No No I am serious. The frowning face Mcqueen. I can’t place it.
Having a brain freeze here.
I’m drawing a blank too, but I think it’s one of the plastic McQueen’s — probably from the box set with Frank & Tractors?
John, maybe that’s it. I sure don’t have one with that scared face.
Its pretty cool to put in front of Frank cause its definitely like the scene in the movie.
If anyone knows where this Scared mcqueen came from, please post.
Thanks.
It’s definitely the Frank, Tractor, & McQueen playset:

It’s definitely from the Tractor Tippin’ playset:

John is correct. It is from the Tractor Tippin’ playset. I used that McQueen for this diorama because it was most like the movie. Yes, it is plastic not metal.
Another version of this diorama…

All of your dioramas are very cool and entertaining. Love the scene with Stanley and Red. Thanks for the link!
Thanks Micky too. Its so appropriate for Frank to be running down that Mcqueen. Why didn’t Mattel do this one as a single??? Of all the lamebrain versions of Mcqueen this is one that THEY SHOULD HAVE MADE IN DIECAST!
Guess I will have to look into the Tractor tipping set. Any ideas where to find one? Great dioramas, thanks for sharing your stuff.
@ John in Missouri.
Thanks for sleuthing out what this came from.
This was at the Rockingham Mall in NH too..
awesome. Must have.
the tire is on backwards on the white one.
How do you figure?
Oh, I see it…the treads are going the opposite way. But if you look at the diorama, it appears my orange tractor is the one that’s off in the photo with the orange and white ones together…that they’re supposed to be pointed in and down instead of in and up. Wonder if that’s hit-and-miss on all of them.
The orange tractor has just one backwards tire…the other is correct. My Paddy O’ has one backwards tire too. Never noticed 8^(
Error, jus never got the paint job
This is not an error. I have seen many in Dallas. Even under it they have put the carter pink. The brown one is not.
Buy the way BIG sale at Disney store on 1:55 scale… Octaine Gain SEMI at $2.99 and GIL at $6.99 For the ones who don’t have them yet 🙂
This was in Florida. You had me seriously thinking it might be an error, but the plastic fenders also are white. (What had me considering it was the fact that the spots are smooth edged and might be set up like that for the orange paint pass to trap the actual rough edged shape. Plus I can’t make complete sense of the color choices…matching white fenders but orange mirrors?) It also has other subtle color variations that appear to be deliberate, and I wouldn’t expect error wheels to be assembled onto an error chassis. Plus there were two of these on the pegs (among the orange ones). And it’s really cool! I never throw away packaging but I can’t put my hands on the orange tractor’s blister… I will check next time I’m back at the DS if no one else has by then.
The pinkish grilles and mirrors have to be deliberate; black-and-white cows still have pinkish noses and ears…
Was that found in the US or International? And, I’ll have to check again. But in the daytime (Stampede), they were brown.
Looks like an Error to me.
Or, just the same Never-Saw-The-Movie Designer who made Pinkish Radiator Springs McQueen and Greenish Holiday Sheriff based on bad photos.
Does Internet Etiquette allow someone to yell “FIRST!!!” after they’ve verified that they are indeed the first to comment?
SUPER DORK! LOL 😛
I figured that would be the response I got! 🙂
