Mattel Disney Pixar Diecast CARS: Target Only Speedway 4-Packs Arriving …
For some reason, Target has put a lock on CARS merchandise getting out before 10/11 – almost as if some mythical specter creature was magically forcing employees to help customers who trick them by calling and asking …
So, these are NOT available before Sunday though by Sunday you can call and ask …
I do not know if the other Speedway 4-Packs have different names but it doesn’t seem and …
There is no official DPCI yet as of today, the box will NOT ring up.
The Re-Volting Race ‘n Chase 4-pack UPC is 0-27084-68516-9 so different UPC (as expected) … the other two UPC’s for the 4-packs are: 0-27084-85932-4 & 0-27084-85933-1, not sure how useful it will be to use in a land where DPCI reigns supreme.
As you can see, a squoosh larger box … and an interesting new box back …
And of course, the other Speedway4-packs are configured as such …
There are only 3 Speedway 4-packs versions … though they come 4 to a carton …
Thanks for the photos and info “LCC-20.”
Or a new pic from Fiddleheads in Maine, they’re just out in the open ripe for the plunking …
See ya’ll on Sunday – how many Target carts can you push at once? 🙂

11OCT09, Went to 3 different TGTs and found nothing. My feelings are hurt!
Its always like this, July August summer doledrums. Few new cars
Then Fall starts the holiday buying season.
I counted over 20 new cars released since mid August.
mattel a quick tip;
stop putting damn mcqueens in every multicar pack!!!!!
i think its somewhat ironic that the most common car at most tescos i go in is Chase Inpound McQueen!
a car thats ment to be harder to get than the others!
Damn it! My wallet hurts! LOL 😀 Will probably only pick up the Vitoline & Rev N Go pack then slowly get the others. Is this Cars Month or something? Why not release stuff periodically during the year… seriously… LOL 😀 Disney/Pixar’s Cars Month include:
Target Day: 4 Pack Racers/ Final Lap 10/11/09
Kmart Day: Kmart’s 7 Rubber Tires Racers
TRU Day: Sarge’s Booth Camp
Wow… really… wow…
ARRGGGGHH! virtually useless 4 packs! I just made a comment on the latest lenticular forum about useless packaging configurations by Mattel and re-packaging the same-old cars again and again. Well, this just confirms that statement and what just everyone else has posted above me. Again Mattel won’t listen, but we are sure to keep getting useless 4 packs like these and dreams of a Tach-O-Mint, N2o Cola, Fiber Fuel, Gask-its all appearing in box are just that, dreams.
At a Target I went to today, we found multiple blowing bubbles maters, polly puddlejumpers, and skip ricters for $4.99 each not $3.99 each, also we found the leak less, chick hicks, and dinoco box sets (crew chief and 3 pittys) for $19.99 along with racetracks, and other GOOD CARS!
Also at tru I found 2 sarge’s boot camp box sets for $29.99 each. those SUV’s are HUGE!!
At Meijer in the midwest, the piston cup starter sets are $19.99 compared to $34.99 at Target! The mater the greater stunt show playset was $19.99 also.
Happy shopping from “carsfreak64”
By the way, we also saw Dinoco showgirls at a tru along with a guido 2 pack (don’t know if it’s even worth buying)
I just found 4 of these at Target a few minutes ago sitting with a half dozen of the old Revolting 4 packs but they still didn’t ring up in the system when you scanned them.
Anyone know what the price will be on the 4 Packs?
I have heard 2 prices:
14.99 and 19.99
I want em all..but hard to get it here..
why is chick hicks second? He never finishes second. What is up with this? forget buying seconds of cars, chick should never finish second in a race. Man come on Mattel, sirst the lenticulars and now this! Gees!
Matty sez: “Chick is in second place because it’s not the last lap!”
Even though I have all the racers, I still think I’ll buy the set with RPM and Trunk Fresh, and the set with Fiber Fuel and Sparemint… might have to wait until next month…
Getting more and more expensive to collect them all…
It wasn’t that long ago that we couldn’t find new Cars… and now there are almost too many of them… almost…
wont buy willl wait for singles of fiber fuel, I refuse to buy more duplicates for one car.
Why do they all have to have a stinkin lightning in them! I have McQueens up to my ears!! Just make 4 packs with all new racers that have never been released outside of promos and the MSOTS
$3.99 for the final lap cars? where? I bought them from Target for 4.99. did they did a price adjustment already?
(MET: My guess is there is sale but we won’t know for certain until the Sunday supplement comes out …)
what Sunday supplement? a Cars day at target?
Actually whoever stocked the Final Lap Cars never bothered to change the price. The Cars rang in at $4.99 at the register but they gave them to me for $3.99.
Mine were $4.99, they didn’t even have pegs for the Final Lap cars, so I’m betting those pegs are for the lenticulars, as Tumbleweed McQueen is in the bottom right corner.
One of our Targets has the pegs ready for Final Lap with the correct DPCI # on the tag and they are still priced at $4.99
You are correct iamspeed. They stocked ROR, Lenticulars and Final Lap all on the same $3.99 pegs. There were no separate Final Lap pegs at my Target.
These pack outs are GREAT . . . but why not put something BETTER in them . . . maybe 4 WRECKED Cars from that scene in the movie . . . THAT WILL SELL IN SECONDS!!!
I love McQueen and King . . . but already have 372 extras of each . . . pack them full of NEW exciting stuff and they would not beable to keep these on the shelf!!
I agree!! BRAVO!
I was wondering that the other day when I was watching CARS and watched Leakless and No Stall on the track, with the scratched paintmarks from being bumped around.
We definitely need some race-damaged variants.
Want…what am I saying!?
Sucks that I have to get a 4-pack to get Fiber Fuel. That will make 4 extra Chick Hicks I own and can’t get rid of.
Are there any places that you can donate loose Cars to?
Open the box very carefully… take out the Fiber Fuel… either use a racer that you already have, or buy a new racer that is out now… replace Fiber Fuel with this car… carefully tape box back up… Drop in a Toys For Tots donation bin or something similar…
You get Fiber Fuel… a needy child gets 4 new to them racers…
Everybody wins!
Toys 4 Tots needs the packages to be in unopened condition. If you open it carefully enough and tape it back up neatly they will accept the donation.
Did this for Re-Volting and Vinyl Toupee…
Just please, do not return to the store and create a “Stunning NEW variant!!!”
Exactly right… I saw a Chick/Chick Mia/Chick Tia three-pack at my local WM last week, only the Mia & Tia were taken out and replaced with Chuki and a Dinoco Helicopter. Whoever did this seriously deserves a hurtin’ of some kind…
cars cares!!! 🙂 they love loose cars!
cars for kids takes the open cars wont they
I saw the one with Fiber Fuel and Sparemint on eBay the other day.
Whoever came up with the typo “Spare O Mint” at Mattel should be fired.
No kidding! It is so obviously NOT Spare-“O”-Mint. It’s a play on words. Nobody chews Wrigley’s Spear-O-mint gum.
Maybe Wrigley’s was crying copywright infringement? Spare-O (tire?) – Mint?
who knows – SQUIRREL!
