Mattel Disney Pixar CARS 2 Diecast: The First (Regular) Chase Car of CARS 2 is …
If you had your money on Radiator Springs Ramone, you win a cookie.
He’s Number #29 in the numbering scheme and the first “off the grid” in the numbering scheme from the little booklet.
He should be included in every case shipped. But note that with retailers cutting back and now he’s one of 24 (in a case) versus 1 in 18 when the CHASE CAR program started (there were 18 CARS to a case then), retailers will not be ordering as many cases so there will not be as many on the shelves.
Also – is the Ultimate Chase program starting also – mixed in with the relaunch of “regular” CHASE CARS?
??
If you see the Blue “Jan Flash” CAR, let us know.
Since Hudson Hornet Piston Cup LM is #26 and Mel Dorado is #27 and they are in “2012” CASE B, presumably he’s in CASE C which should ship for the next reset? In 3-4 weeks?
Since there are not a lot of other diecasts actually revealed, maybe Prince Wheeliam is #28?
Hopefully, there’s another new diecast in the case … maybe J. Curby Gremlin or the Flag Guy?
Thanks for the heads up on the first chase “David V.” Thanks!

Got a call from a friend who found 5 #29 Chase Radiator Springs Ramone today at Target in SE Texas. The pegs and end cap were just stocked.
2 RS Ramone Chase per case C of 24. The UPC code matches what Mattel called Epilogue Ramone.
The store put out 3 cases. Ultimate Chase was not found.
(MET: Is it the jacked up RS Ramone?)
Target??? As in the store with a red target for their logo? I am SHOCKED they found anything new to put out! 😉
Met no its the regular one.
I find it easier to simply regard anything that’s not FMM, RTM or LMQ as a “chase.” That way, I’m never disappointed. I’ll wait and pick them all up on “clearance” at Al’s Toy Barn.
Guys Check this out:

He is released already! The hunt begins!
They’re a Direct Import dealer so they get everything sooner than other sellers. Chase Ramone probably won’t be found in stores for a couple more weeks.
oh..:(
Met – could #28 be Victor Hugo or “Ka-Ciao Francesco” McQueen?
I also think these will be 2 per case. Saw the new cardback for the Quick Changers, its the London scene. Is this the new 2012 cardback?
Do you have a pic of the London cardback?
I saw it at Walmart today. Its also on ebay. I don’t collect these so no picture.
In the olden days I would have groaned here, but I will now cheer because we actually need some good singles nowadays.
YAY!
Come on, new Cars… I hope the Chase Cars are no harder to find than the original Chase Cars… perhaps they’ll include 2 Chase Cars in the case of 24 as they did with many if not all of the cases of 24.
And if I have to resort to eBay to acquire the Super Chase Cars, that may be the end of the road of my desire to collect them all… or almost all.
I wonder if the production Prince will have subtle silver stripes as it did in the movie?
There were three different flag guys, one at each race, Honda, Fiat and Mini Cooper. Don’t know if there was also a flag guy at Radiator Springs?
I look forward to getting Prince Wheeliam, since that’s what we call my son!
Neat!
Neat! Now that’s worth chasing for!
