Mattel Disney Pixar Diecast CARS 2: Pit Stop Launchers Checklist

CARS 2 product is not supposed to be out on the shelf until May 16, 2011.

It is not May 16, 2011.

Who reads these days unless it’s on the internet, right?

Speaking of the internet, how about the power of light like speed over to the Netherlands to look over the shoulder of “ScoobyDoo,” and “King of Cars,” who sent along some great pics for us to oogle …

Shu Todoroki, the LeMans racer looks super sweet … great job on the detailing.

So, if you were thinking of holding out … you lose but you really win. 🙂

The Aston GT is a great looking racer anyway …

Mach Schnell to buy Max Schnell.

The new launcher devices look mightly nice.

And you can even learn important words in European languages – though the US one will only have 3 words. Pit. Gas. Launch.

As promised, here is the checklist of the first wave – they won’t be all in the first case but should be all the available in the first 2-3 cases … yea, I think that Jeff Gorvette might sell … 🙂

Thanks for the great pics “ScoobyDoo,” and “King of Cars!”

    Hello ! I m going to Holland next week and I was wondering if anybody knew where to buy those =) thanks !

    • jestrjef says:

      They have been found at a store called Top 1 Toys!! Bring us back some!! 😉

    • ScoobyDoo says:

      Don’t expect to find them in every toy shop in the Netherlands. Despite the name ‘Top 1 Toys’ these are small toy stores in mostly smaller villages. I visited 3 stores last weekend and found 3 of the 4 cars above and one piece each so i expect they only received 1 case per store. As far as I know none of the major toy stores (Intertoys, Bart Smit, Toys XL ) has these for sale. But I’ ll check and keep you up- to-date

        Thanks ! I ll be in Utrecht and Ammersfoort so I ll have a look there, probably they are already sold out or take out the shelves after attel called them =S

    These are cool looking, especially Shu, great detail. Nothing like Cars cast from nice fresh dies!

    Oh man, I can’t wait!

  • cac1959 says:

    I am so looking forward to these… as long as we don’t get multiple McQueens in each case, it should be easier to collect them all.

  • Mariela says:

    Super cool..I love those launchers!! Bring it on Mattel!!

  • taylor says:

    We wont see this launcher line complete unless………Gulp! there is NO cars3 and they will complete the line as they draw the last pennys from us.

    • jestrjef says:

      I think we will be good for Mattel to complete these (GASP … I know, so hard for us to trust Matty 😆 ). There are not as many racers in the field … how many were at the starting line of WGP Race in the screen shots … 10 … 12 …. check this picture … wonder if it holds true for EACH race or if there are MORE racers … a kid can dream, right?? 😀

      (MET: The launchers should be easier to complete this time around … there are probably more racers – but probably no more than a handful …)

  • Outlawbak says:

    My question is whether these will only be available this way, or will they come out as singles as well

    (MET: They will literally and figuratively be available every way but loose 🙂

  • jestrjef says:

    THESE ARE AMAZINGLY COOL!! My son will go CRAZY … he and I both LOVE these Launchers, but like BMW, I and others have said a million times, I wish Mattel would have stuck to their guns on doing every Racer from Cars 1 this way!! Matty.com … anyone …. anyone??? 🙂

  • ScoobyDoo says:

    Nice post. Thank you Met. And big thanks to Kristel for the tip!

  • BMW says:

    Thanks for the checklist!
    Will all of the Grand Prix Racers be made in this launcher series?
    I ask because I gave up on the Cars 1 launchers. Lost interest when Mattel messed up the line with their changes. And never finishing a line before moving on to something else. Don’t want to fall into that trap again.

    (MET: There are only about 13 racer CARS that we’ve seen – I imagine there are some more like Rip Clutchgoneski that are just there for others to pass or crash into to but it seems like completing them should be easier … presuming people will buy pegwarmers like Shu or Jeff Gorvette … where is that sarcasm font? 🙂 ).
