Mattel Disney Pixar Diecast CARS: Mater Tall Tales – Disney UK
Unlike the US Disney Stores which do not carry the Mattel diecast CARS – the Disney UK stores do carry a variety of CARS items including the Mater Tall Tales Megasize & Singles …
Thanks for the first headsup “Rippers.”
Of course UKers really, really appreciate when items are converted directly from $ to £ …
;-/
You can find all the CARS toys/diecasts starting on this page.
You can also find regular megasize, lenticulars and Movie Moments not out in the US.
PT Flea & Flik are even available to order.
Of course, they have their own exclusives that sometimes don’t make it to the US like the Mater the Greater Stunt Playset or this 10-CAR included 20-CAR storage case …
Though keep in mind, these are the DISNEY STORE 1:64 CARS and not the Mattel 1:55 CARS AND the while it holds 10-more CARS, most if not all the Mattel 1:55 CARS will NOT FIT.
Thanks for the headsup also Steven H-B.

Love that helicopter. Are the cars the same diecast disney sells seperately or smaller?
I picked up the TRU promo leaflet last night from my local TRU, scanned it and sent it to Met although its not been put up yet.
It anwsers a few questions but raises another.. the leaflet says the promo starts 19th September which explains why TRU staff etc knew nothing about it and possibly the lack of any new cars!
However I hope they honour anyone that bought cars before the 19th (me included!) as the Carstoys.co.uk website stated the promo started on the 5th September!!
hey guys do we actually know what the next tru uk promo car is gonna be yet….??????
Idk Maybe tach-o-mint ive heard rumors
Thanks for the tip. I immediately ordered the Resque Squad cars !
On a slightly different topic. I spoke to the Manager of our local TRU today and finally they are aware of the promotion, and he seemed to think the poster would be instore from the middle to end of next week. So it’s looks like things are finally starting to happen. Would be nice if they started to get some more current cars than Case B and C ROR in though. I am hoping for Case D through F of the ROR cars as these never really made an appearance across here. Maybe this is Mattel UK’s way of shifting the old, ‘unexciting’ ROR cars.
Just checked the Disneystore website an dthere are one 2 Nurse Kori, 1 Nurse GTO left. Pittys already sold out. Wow, they really flew!
WARNING WARNING!!!! I just found All of the mater’s tall tales singles except for burnt mcqueen and i found a dinoco showgirl giftpack @ TRU THis morning my wire broke and my grandma picked me up from school and took me too get it fixed and it only took 3 min including wait time so she took me to TRU AND I hit the jackpot!!!!!! I only bought orderly pitties and GTO
WHAT!! here in the UK or US…???
As havent seen any 3 packs here in the UK yet!!
I didnt see any 3 packs but im in texas usa
I’ll take the “wait and see” approach and hope the helicopter shows up in the US Disney Stores……..shipping would probably be ridiculously expensive compared to the initial expense of the helicopter.
same with me, just looked on *egh* ebay,
Disney Store Frank (US only)
Buy it now price: apx £18
postage and packaging cost: £20
i think ill wait and see if it pops up over here, otherwise ill be kicking myself for paying twice as much!
There is always the option of shipping by surface mail if you just can’t wait. Altough it can take longer it is half the price of airmail!
i saw the helicopter carry case thingy,
its big, but probibly not practicle for the 1:55s,
also, it includes the awful disney store cars, wherein the wheels dont move, so….not very good, your not missing anything,
wouldnt an Al Oft carry case be better? more room ect…?
plus it would double up as an in-scale character!
Great idea!! I hear SDCC 2010 2nd offer!!!
Brilliant idea! We need Aroldo…
Although the cars are not great, their wheels do turn!
realy? the cars i saw a while ago the whole thing was one piece, some cleaver person at disney must have noticed to problem and fixed it,
but still, the scale is all wrong and they are of a bad quality…
They do have some where the cars are plastic and all one piece, but these are diecasts and the wheels do turn on these. Same cars as in the Mack Carry case.
Do they ship to the US? It would be nice to get these here too!
🙂
Hey I didn’t say first and I figured out how to load an avatar…aren’t you proud?
Go Albert..!!! 😉
Good work!!!
The Disneystore UK doesnt ship to the US – but if you need anything I would be happy to help out. Am sorting out some other TFAD’ers with the next UK Cars promo – including the fabulous MiaSenorita (take a bow Mia!) 🙂
Awwww I am blushing Crossway 😳
You’re the best! A package or 5 should be headed to the UK any day now…. once I get my s$%t together… I mean p00p in a group… I mean….. off my butt 🙂
p00p in a group! That’s too funny! 😆
