Mattel Disney Pixar CARS 2: The “Fantastic” Plastic CARS …

This is one reason not to get carried away by buying CARS before they actually get released because you have to separate out the seed from the banana …

For instance, “G Rebel Yell” sent along these interesting photos of an all plastic Francesco Bernoulli …

I know some of you “Fillmore’s” out there are ready to scream, “it’s a conspiracy, man.”

“It’ll all be plastic for CARS 2!”

So, do you actually want the truth?

There will actually be an all plastic line for “discount stores,” meaning $.99 or $1 or around $1 – I’m not exactly sure – not a very full release, I think it’s only McQueen, Mater, Finn McMissile & Francesco Bernoulli … so before you panic … it’s NOT the 1:55 series which like now will be mostly metal. Of course, there’s not as much metal as we would like – but with the cost of labor & zinc going up … and in trying to keep it under $4 …something’s gotta give …

The plastic CARS actually look pretty nice, you can see some soft details here and there but not a bad deal for all plastic …

And really, I’m not making up the plastic line up, here’s the UPC: 7-46775-03867-0

But this is why you should wait on the official CARS – so you can separate out the diecasts from the not metal diecasts … aka: happy meal CARS. 🙂
