Mattel Disney Pixar Diecast CARS 2: Target.com Taking Orders + Free Shipping
Target.com is taking orders for products ready to ship on May 16, 2011.
They are offering free shipping on a lot of the products so you can save yourself some gas. (There is tax unless you live in a sales tax free state, of course).
You can also save on some possible disappointment as there are stores who might not get everything you want and of course, you can return most toy items to a Target store if you decide you don’t want it.
The items that are exclusive to Target and with free shipping:
There are 3 of the 4 CARS Lights & Sounds are shown. The 4th is either Mater is Finn McMissile so if you’re collecting the 1:55 Lights & Sounds, it’s your solid starter set plus at @$8.74 each, you’re probably saving a little as they are normally $9.99 each at Target. You can check out a demo of the L&S in action from our post a few weeks ago.
However, that looks like the ONLY Mattel Box Set offered with free shipping.
You can however get some of the Airhogs CARS with free shipping including the Zero Grav one that will climb walls and ceilings:
Or the 1:43 scale Lights & Sounds RC (not zero gravity):
I’ve never heard of this game but it looks pretty fun – looks like it’s “Sorry” but instead of a circular path, you traverse a race track – looks pretty good. The only board game with free shipping.
There are also a Lego Duplo set with free shipping:
Lego Duplo CARS 2 Pit Stop
All the CARS 2 books & DVD’s are available with free shipping.
The rest of the box sets seem to be available online but with NO FREE SHIPPING.
There is also a new 7-pack that has popped up with a SPOILER ALERT name …
It appears to be exactly the same as the Racing Rivalry 7-pack except for Darrell Cartrip instead of Raoul Carole – presuming the photos are correct.
And for Racing 4-Pack #4 – the first look at Lightning McQueen Fan (thanks to all those who sent in the photo).
And another surprise car – Carla Veloso Fan is in this 4-pack …
So, will these last two actually be on the shelf next Monday? These are in CASE B & C coming down the line before June 24 so Target.com may have jumped the gun a little – it might not actually ship for another month but hey, anything is possible.
Happy shopping.

I got a cancellation notice today from target.com for the (2) packs with Lightning’s Fan & Carla’s Fan 🙁 saying they are unavailable from the supplier.
What are the chances of the British dude and Veloso Fan being singles later on?
Maybe they will return in another Target box set, but I think they will be exclusive to Target.
These are great for someone who doesn’t live near a Target or TRU. It will be a pain in the butt if the wrong items are shipped though. In between where I live and where I work, there are 4 TRU, 7 Targets, 5 Kmarts, and 9 Walmarts. For the first time since we started collecting, I won’t have to worry about missing out on a new release. It will be nice not to have to run out and try to get the 1 or 2 new cars in a case of 18, and then if you miss them, the store is not going to order any more. For the last year it has felt like a race to get them before they are gone for good. This will be a nice break.
You work on the other side of the state?
I live in the Eastern panhandle of West Virginia and work 20 miles north of DC.
Take a look at TRU lots of pre-order Cars 2 stuff. Just forked out $300 +
I am going to go out on a limb and say Mater will be the 4th Lights and Sound car seeing as how a L&S Mater is pictured in the Tokyo Victory 7-pack.
I was planning on sitting down this weekend with the checklists, but it looks like I’m not going to be able to wait! I buy for my son to play with – why do they make it so that there are so many dupes in sets? It makes it very expensive!
$450 WORTH OF PRE ORDERS NOW JUST HOPE THEY GET IT RIGHT , IF NOT LOTS OF TARGETS TO RETURN TOO
I am guessing by the look on Sarge’s face, that McQueen didn’t win that leg of the race.
cletus this in cars the video game

I HATE SPOLIERS! but its not that bad of a spoiler.
ramone high low will be a normal size?
Yes, Ramone will be normal size, but will be packaged in a Mega Size package (Deluxe).
(MET: Actually, he’s part of the singles lineup now).
My…. I must revised my shopping list… again… It is getting more complicated but fun! Ok Is someone knows what’ in Single cases D, E and F ???
Carla’s biggest fan is a Nissan Figaro! I wonder if someone at Pixar is a fan of “The Sarah Jane Adventures;” it’s even the right color!
(Rest in peace, Elisabeth Sladen; we miss you already…)
Does anyone know anything about stephenson the spy train ?? Is it cute or stupid. Does it roll on wheels?? How big is it?? I looked on youtube but there is nothing !!!!
There are also many items available for pre-order on Tru.com, including the exclusive LMQ
Oh, I’m seriously worried for my wallet now. Mattel is overdoing it…again.
I pity packaging and variant collectors!
I think I am going to take my SINGLE Cars 2 pks BACK!
Be careful when ordering Target has some of their DPCI’s and descriptions mixed online
087-07-1978 should be a four pack.
search 087-07-1978 watch descriptions
look at 087-07-1993 too Big Ben London looks cool
Going overboard… too many to buy… and I’m buying them…
Since I don’t have a Target store within 50 miles, I’m going to consider the last 2 4 packs…
Neat – yes… Expensive – definitely…
if only i could…..
I pre-ordered my 2 box sets yesterday !! They are a nice suprise (mcqueen & carla fan) !! Atleast Miguel camino comes in this set also !!
Whooooo hooooo! Some cool stuff there!! 🙂
Neat!
