Mattel Disney Pixar Diecast CARS: San Diego Comic Con Rescue Squad Mater Buying Details
Here are the details for the distribution & sales of San Diego Comic Con Rescue Mater & Dalmatian Mia & Tia.
It is $30 USD each and at San Diego Comic Con July 22 to July 26, there is a buying limit of six.
“PRODUCTS AVAILABLE AT COMIC-CON
Products will be sold starting preview night. Customer service and safety is our number one priority, so we’ll have a separate booth run by our Toy Club to handle sales. Lines will only be allowed to get as long as the designated roped-off area, but “fast-pass” tickets will be handed out to reserve your spot later that day. Limits on all exclusives will be six per person, per visit to the Mattel booth.
If you choose to wait in line a second time, you’ll be eligible to buy another 6 figures (there will also be a limit of six figures for online purchases after the show). It should all go very smoothly for the best buying experience yet!”
Or wait until August 3, 2009 – a week AFTER SDCC is over. MattyCollector.com will sell another few thousand online – yes, for real. The allotment has been set aside and YES, Mattycollector.com will ship WORLDWIDE. Hallelujah!
So do not panic. There are definitely enough to last a few days at SDCC and definitely enough to last a few hours on August 3, 2009 – 9 AM PACIFIC TIME (U.S.).
And don’t forget, SUNDAY, July 26 – TakeFiveADay.com is hosting the ART OF DIECAST CARS at SD Comic Con with special guests – Room 5AB 2:00-3:00 PM. You better be in line UPSTAIRS and not downstairs during that hour!

Whoa! Yes, I noticed these seem to be from overseas.
Thanks.
Good News, a friend of mine I just found out he has a table at the
SDCC show. I guess I will be giving him some money.
He is an artist promoting his comic talents.
His portfolio is below if you guys are interested.

Thanks fellas.
I have another question.
I am seeing all over Ebay people selling Red Firetruck Mater’s
and if you look closely the nuts on the wheel rims are not painted white.
Where are these coming from, were these early promo items sent to these people and now they are selling them or what?
For instance…Sorry for the long link.

Anything you see on eBay right now, that is not a Pre-Sell for SDCC is basically stolen from the factory.

some unknown reason, am I S.O.L or will this be available in the stores at some point?

(MET: Only available at SDCC or Mattycollector.com until sold out … though I’m going to out on a limb and say you will find some/many on eBay and other resellers afterwards).
Read UP /\
they will never be at retail.
I was sure I posted the list info we needed
this is of topic but does anyone know where i can get a frank or elvis rv?? im in MD ellicote City
Hi Drew,
I have them. Email me at Service@PitStopToyShop.com
I still want this set but obviously can’t go to SD (I thought that was South Dakota). I would still like to be on someone’s list even tho there is no list since the limit is 6. I’m not real confident in Matty dot bomb being able to sell me one. I’ still unhappy with a certain Montana “person” who burned me last year. Kinda leaves a bad taste in your mouth. I also had all the haulers ordered on Target and Amazon only to get one and have the other’s cancelled. My one WM sucks and I’m 200 miles from any K-Mart, Target, TRU or another WM of any size. Okay, I’m done now. I’m going to my room to cry.
Nance dont cry! Im going to Kmart event want me to try to get you some?
NJM:
Email me: nascarnbroncosfans@msn.com
Mia, Tia, and NJM,
I am pretty sure there are a couple of select places you can browse online that will supply your needs without you ever having to leave the comfort of your home.
Service@PitStopToyShop.com
Thanks Jake.
Dont buy on ebay, these are either factory seconds or NON GUARRANTEED sales.
wait for Mattycollector.com
Breakfast / Lunch List:
Monica are we still up for breakfast at the same place? Sat – Sun
Umm Manchesters or something?
I will need email addresses and cell numbers of everyone so we coordinate breakfast and a lunch??
I think we can count on Glenn for “runner”?? maybe BK – McD’s if everyone thinks stuff is way to expensive inside for lunch.
I am still working on getting a Saturday pass if anyone has one to cough up.
nascarnbroncosfans@msn.com
Ill buy lunch for anyone who puts me on their list of 6
My husband and I really wanted to take Ryan, we know he would love it!! We can’t believe tickets are already sold out. Anyone that has an extra two please let me know. We just need two one day passes, Ryan gets in free. Thanks!!

Crap……..
Met….You have a typo on the matty website
should be mattycollector.com not mattycollectible.com
(MET: Fixed. Thanks).
Umm, well, yes, and yes, and yes, and yes.
I know this is not Disney CARS related but does anyone know what the hotwheels exclusive is this year for comic con? It is really weird to have not heard anything yet.
(MET: I’ll ask).
I posted a question for you Terri on the HW forum.
Email me. I can’t find your question. Sorry!!

Does anyone know if kiddos will be allowed to buy? I know that Hasbro does not, only paid passholders.
(MET: I presume that will be the case as well … though if you can round up 20 sad faces 🙂 ).
Heh, I just bought from an Ebay seller. He was selling a preorder for 40 bucks with 6 bucks shipping. Kinda hard to pass that up.
Everyone:
Dont panic and pay ebay PRESALE prices.
WORLDWIDE to everyone
So Matty moved it from July 27 to August 3?
Anyone going to the SDCC and would like to help me out???
Nope… don’t need Mater… I’ll take my chances online after the show…
I need someone to go to Hallmark’s booth and buy the Exclusive Star Wars Ornament set they will have there…
This is my one and only vice after the Cars collecting for my 5 Year old nephew… I’ve been getting the Star Wars Ornaments for Years and would hate to miss this one… I contacted Hallmark and there will be none made available after the show and I shudder to think what the eBay mark up will be…
If it is the mini size 2 pack I assume it is, I’m guessing the price point to be in the $15-$20…
Perhaps we could come up with an arrangement to do this for me??? I will think of some way to reward/thank the person willing to do this for me.
Thanx
Scott (Uncle Skippy)
uncle_skip1@yahoo.com
I talked to my husband Skip and we can do it for ya.. Ill send you an email shortly
Ah… that’s great… just great…
Gotta love the fusion of Cars and Star Wars…
Collector’s helping Collector’s… I love this site…

WHOOP WHOOP WHOOP!!!!! ILL BE THERE!!!!!! This is me dancing from the rooftops doin a Cars jig! Whoo de whoo hoo!!! HAhahahahahahah! I am SO excited I think my head might explode! Ill prolly get my whole 6 too just in case, I only have 3 called for (including mine) if I dont keep 2 so I can open one, but I do have daily passes so hmmmmmmmmmm maybe Ill get more than 6 hmmmmmmmmmmmm. I dont have the strength or stamina to do what Nascar did last year but Ill get some extras just in case a fellow Take fiver needs some help.
I need that help!!!!!!

climatronic@hotmail.com
you will be able to get them WORLDWIDE after the show shipped WORLDWIDE
Hey, what about my comment above asking if anyone is going and might have extras??? Let me know if you think you might end up with an extra. tjgraham1924 at hotmail dot com
Guys guys you know I want to help ill be honest, Im scared stiff of overcommitting myself, Im hoping beyond hope that I will at least have the money for the 6 but Ill send yall emails so we can talk about it more
Fear of commitment…isn;t that usually a guy thing??
Tom-boys count???
Hey Caitlin!!!
SEE YOU THERE!!!!!!!!!
(MET: Now, there’s a party! 🙂 ).
Hey Flik! Ill be the chick with the shirt that say FPG on it that never leaves the Mattel booth LOL
This is going to be sooooooooooo much fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!
SNIFF SNIFF!!!!!I am so sad that I won’t be there. I would LOVE to meet everyone in person. Maybe next year I can squeeze it in. I just pray I can get some online before they are sold out. yikes! I hope you all have a blast and I will try my hardest not to resent you when you come back with great stories 😉
Don’t worry about the online stuff…I still have your back!!! 😉
Hey, any news on the SDCC t-shirts?
Now why would you say how to get around buying the 6 limit? Give the people a chance. No one should have more than 6 unless you’re a scalper!!!!
Except if you buy for you, two sons, a sons mate, one to display at work, one for me to open and play with, one each for mates like HTB, Gav, Strappy and pearl necklace. That would make nine and none would ever be re-sold.
But being on Matty and having limit of six is fine. At least they go world wide. I just have to work out what time 9am US Pacific time equates to Australian (Perth WST) time. Time to google that.
HTB let me know if you want to order with mine ( I can live with 3 for me)?
Yes please!! Just 1 for me thanks.
Alright (hoping stars, planets and gods align at the same time) will include one for you. No problems.
rpag,
Nice try on a working ladder for Red. Just remember no one thought we’d still be doing these 3 years later. The plussed up Rescue Mater was a one time SDCC thang.
If Red is in Cars 2 could be a play tho………….that’s up to JL 🙂
hey just a thought. if they can make a ladder move up for mater, can they make one move for red?
i will buy these. I wonder how much they will run after the show?
Same price on Matty as the show, plus shipping of course…as far as the after market… sky is the limit!
I’ve checked with anyone that I know that might have been going……nobody’s making the trip this year.
Any TakeFivers that might be going and would be willing to pick one, or two, for me……….let me know. tjgraham1924 at hotmail dot com
Gorgess! I’m really looking forward to this one!
Can’t wait to add these to my collection!
August 3rd is entirely too long to wait for this. Hopefully some other good items pop up to fill in the gap between now and then.
Like Kmart???
SWEET!! Boy I wish I could go for a visit . . . if this show will come to ORLANDO I would be in and I would help every Take 5’er I could!!
Hey jef I am DYING to get the micky and minnie Lightning and Sally minnies and playmat from disney world, wanna help a girl out? I would totally do ya a solid from the SDCC this summer…. whatya think?
I am heading to Orlando next week and can help you out… email me
donovan32257@hotmail.com
FPG, shoot me an email. I thought I had yours, but cannot seem to find it. jestrjef at hotmail dot com
Consider it a done deal. We go to down towm disney with the kids a couple times a month. They love it down there!!
I have an extra one from my visit in May. $28 + shipping, if Brian can’t help you out.
prisonbrk@aol.com
I know, I know Trading Forum
Sorry, Met it was just a quicky
I have to head down to the Orlando area this weekend for work, but will have some spare time Sunday afternoon. Was thinking about killing time at Disney Hollywood Studios. Anyone know which shops might carry Cars merchandise (like Mickey McQueen & Minnie Sally)?
When we were there in May, the only shop that had McQ and Sally was a place called “Stdio Prop Shop,” (according to my receipt). I believe the staff referred to it as the “Cars Shop.” It is in the far back, left hand corner. A store should be able to tell you were to find it from this number: 40012776198
not bad at all for the money
I’m ready to get mine too!!
Chuki your going right? If you are ill C you there!
Yes!! Can’t wait to see you in person… I’ll be the one with the 6’4″ escort.. Crowd (and Matty) control… 😆
hey!!!! we should all get together for lunch…. 😆
YES!!! You think Matty will treat???
i would treat you . . . if I was there . . .sniffle, sniffle . . . whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
oh, poor jestrjef….. I know that you will be there in spirit, we’ll raise our cups o’ coffee/ soda to you in your honor (yours too PD, at least you ain’t whinning about it! 😉 )! And yes, chuki_mama, stupid head Matty should treat!! Oh, wait! weren’t we making the trip so we could AVOID Matty??? You know he stinks really bad, and I don’t think we would want him at our table while we are eating, he might make us sick!!!!
We will leave the bill on his tab- he’s not invited. 😆
That sounds great!!!!! 😆
I am in for lunch and breakfast
Looking forward to buying this!
