Mattel Disney Pixar CARS Diecast: Hank Hallsum Returns
Hank Hallsum, presumably one of the rarest production CARS diecast will fall off that list with its new re-release in a Radiator Springs Classics 3-pack.
Hank is NOT a variant. He looks essentially the same along with the same re-releases of Waitress Mia & Tia.
As with most of the pickup releases, the front mouthpiece remains plastic (along with the bed).
Hank & Waitress Mia & Tia were previously available in a TRU-only 5-pack, Flo’s V8 Cafe Gift Pack.
Rejected Hank Hallsum names:
Hank Hallsum A**Hank Hallsum Jr.
Hank Hallsum Blue Paint
Hank Hallsum Mittens For Kitchens
Hank Hallsum Repaint
Hank Hallsum Répaint
Hank “Blue Moon” Withoutadream
Hank Hallsumb*****
Hank “Hallsumenthol” Lozenges
Hank Pixarian

So OK is their some new R.S. Classic releases? I collect everything so would love to see some info articles and pics. Lists
Now to blend a Hank Hallsum body to a plastic I-Screamer chassis, to make the monster truck McQueen admires in the beginning of “Monster Truck Mater”!
very cool idea, I love Monster Truck Mater along with real Monster Trucks, so that would be cool to see. Rasta Carian is kind of a peg warmer at all my local Walmarts, so that would be a good one to cannibalize!
I’ve already done a monster truck like this, using a Duff Wrecks, heavily dirtied and rusted, to make the truck you can see in the far right rear corner of the Rust-Eze sponsor tent.
Can you share a pic of your Duff Wrecks custom?
I’d be happy to, shoot me your email address!

I just got back from Walmart and snagged a Rastacarian for the project. Otherwise, the place was empty of Cars except for a few mega size and two packs.
So glad I didn’t fork over cash for the old boxset. I was about to as well. Keep up the good work Mattel 😀
I hear ya, I need this one too, don’t mind the re-releases on ones I need
