Mattel Disney Pixar CARS 2 Diecast: Singles Case E
The next case D was covered a few days ago but E will follow a few weeks later …
I believe this is the first ever CARS 2 singles case without a Finn McMissile … and I also believe this is the first one without “regular” Lightning McQueen. There is a Lightning with the Hudson Hornet Piston Cup logo artwork decal.
There are three new releases in this case:
Airport Security (CHASE) – 2 in the case.
Head of the Gremlin crime family – J Curby Gremlin – 3 in the case.
and Mini Cooper (airport) – 3 in the case:
These should be on the London design card.
Thanks for the heads up Children’sToyCloset – there’s no release date yet but before the end of February.
BTW, there is a 2-pack with a Van & Airport Security Van (the Van going through security). Presumably since the Airport Security van as a single is a CHASE CAR, that means the 2-pack one is slightly different – it seems safe to guess it has different eyes and mouth? The 2-pack is also scheduled for soon but unknown as of now exactly when it will show up.
As of now, it’s unknown if the Ultimate Chase CARS will be in every case in 2012 or spaced out as there are only 4-6 listed.

Just yesterday I found the Hudson Hornet Piston Cup Lightning McQueen at a walmart a hour away from where I live.
Met – are you 100% sure “Airport Security” isn’t the car without the wheels? You said he was a chase in a previous post.
(MET: There is definitely a separate listing for “Van w/o Wheels.”)
I am almost sure this is the first chase that’s is a new character, not just a simple repaint or with an accessory. although he doesn’t sound like much of chase if there is 2 per case and is coming in a 2 pack. i will get both versions as it would be cool to have more security!
2 Chases? I thought in order to be a chase it was supposed to be hard to find…
Plenty of regular releases are hard/impossible to find.
I’m curious to see what J Curby Gremin’s expression will be on the finished product. Hopefully not this one, as it doesn’t match his general tone throughout his scenes. Hope we all actually see some of these on the pegs fairly soon.
There’s no Finn McMissile!!
(MET: For you, we’ll all mail you some. 😆 ).
Awww, how thoughful! 😛
There is really only one new casting in this case.
If the security van is a Kingpin repaint there aren’t any new castings.
(MET: It is definitely a new casting, it’s like a Toyota Scion xB so much smaller).
He would then have to be Megasized so t’s probably a new casting.
I am looking forward to the new Cars… Bring them on…
Wow! These are some great Cases coming!
I just wonder when I can see them as the pegs here over flowing with extra’s on top and a show case bin filled with the old stuff. It’s going to be a long time.
My Wal-Mart did a reset this week, where I finally found the Pope and the Popemobile in the wild. So there is hope, even though they still have 14,353 Petrov Trunkov’s from the cube months and months ago.
Sweet!
