Mattel Disney Pixar Diecast CARS: The Gold Ransburg Cruisin’ McQueen & Ransburg Mater II
The Ultimate CARS Gift Pack – 2 DVD set (1 DVD, 1 Blu Ray DVD) + 2 exclusive CARS.
The Blu Ray Disc packaging.
DVD features …
Back of the box … top of the box has a perforated mark to lift up the handle and create a mini suitcase.
And of course, you came for the Blu Ray and stayed for the CARS …
Looks like the they are just calling him Cruisin’ McQueen so guess we will simply call him Cruisin’ McQueen (Gold).
He is the true exclusive, available no-where else and we won’t point out, Cruisin’ McQueen (Gold) does not actually appear anywhere in the film 🙂
S’up Dude …
You also get Rescue Squad Mater (Ransburg II Blu Ray DVD Edition).
Unlike some other Rescue Squad versions, he has the EXACT same expression as the SDCC Rescue Squad Mater … and in many ways is remarkably similar. Nice bright chromy Ransburg paint. Same detailing on the lugnuts and in the large areas – very much the same look.
There is slightly less chrome on the Blu Ray DVD version – plus of course, the ladder doesn’t raise, the hose does not and it’s plastic & not rubber tires …
But the biggest difference is when you pick it up. It’s remarkable how they managed to shave nearly 40% of the weight off this thing!
For those keeping score at home, it’s 100.8 grams for SDCC Rescue Squad Mater & 62.7.
I guess Red Ransburg is slimming?
And for those who are only collecting exclusive CARS from Disney DVD offers … COMPLETE!
Though we did not get one in 2008 so they owe us one … I’d like a Cruisin’ in every color so I can line them up like this …

Can anyone confirm what region code the Blu Ray has? It’s sold in the UK as region free (ie A. B. & C.)….. But it’s around $70 over here…… If the one on Amazon is also ABC region I’ll import a copy! Thanks!!!
(MET: It is believed to be region free but someone should confirm that …).
anyone notice that the heading has a typo?
Decast?
Here is a link to print all the coupons for the Blu-Ray’s and Target coupon. Easy as pie to print coupons.

Nice!! Finally I could print one for Monsters Inc….thanks!!
Sorry! 🙁 I tried…
It just takes the better man!! :0)
It was suppose to be this! 🙂
Don’t fight guys..!! Thanks to both of you, one worked and the other not! 😛
Hey Jake..I voted for you! 😉
No problem as Jake told me about one site and I stumbled across the one that worked. Was on the phone with him when I found it. 🙂
They are talking about it being ‘date night’ with Sally on the box, so this is obvious… it’s “Moonlight” Cruising McQueen! (gold, yellow, moonlight..)
Saw just one of these at a local Wal-mart. They had a security device on it, with the cables from it messing up the packaging.
Am I missing the obvious when I go to Wal-Mart — where is everyone seeing these? Electronics? Toys?
Right in the front of electronics, along the main aisle way. They only had one. And I think it was $34.96? Cheaper from Amazon.
I line all my pitties up in the red down to purple, and then easy idle and nitroade. Reminds me of those Ipod Nano ads from a year ago.
I’ll bet you also recreate Feist’s 1-2-3-4 video with them too! 🙂
I don’t know how I never thought of that… I see fun on the horizon!
🙂
Hey ya’ll – Just got this e-mail and thought I’d share it with you Dudes…
I am not one to go back to a store two weeks after I bought something just to get refunded a few bucks because the item went on sale and they would honor that lowest price….
So this came as a shoke when out of the blue, AMAZON – On their own time – Replied to refund $$$
And I quote: “Greetings from Amazon.com.

The price of the item(s) decreased after you ordered them, and we gave you the lowest price.

Some kind of wonderful, eh?!?!
Amazon is REAL good about that.

UPDATE: You can get the Cars Gift Set plus Up and Monsters, Inc. on Blu Ray from Amazon for $48.93, using code PIXARBLU.
Lame attempt at embedding a link comes next…
The golden McQueen is absolutely one of the best Cars produced. Thanks for the photos
Amazon is so cool, they gave me a refund to the Target price!
I just got an email from Amazon also – saying they were refunding me the $3 plus tax for the price guarantee. I didn’t even have to initiate the refund ! :o)
me too – does that mean we are down to $26.99?
cool cars, but when they’re forcing you to pay $26+ for two cars, the paint quality and weight should not have to be an issue.
I don’t think anyone is forcing you, and the cars do come with a dvd. The quality is actually high, it is Ransburg, and to me is no issue. Each to their own but.
I look at it like the cars are free – Blu-ray disks are easily $25 on sale for nearly all the Disney movies. Heck the Disney DVDs are hardly ever on sale either and they were always $20. If you don’t want the movies list them new and unopened on ebay in a month and you’ll probably get $20 for the movie.
I’m calling this one the “Gold-Ray McQueen”.
I like that!
New Official Unofficial name!!!
I third that!!
Easy to be a forth on that one!
way cool – hope to have one very soon!
the gold mcq is pretty cool ! just had trouble trying to find one without paint knicks! 🙂
Met no ideas to Mattel about new Cars please. I am struggling to keep track, not that we get them all over here but still can’t keep up with what I have to track down.
