Mattel Disney CARS: Nearly All the Micro Drifters Visual Checklist
Besides John H., who else is collecting all the Micro Drifters? 🙂
Thanks to him, we have a nice visual checklist if you’re collecting ’em all …
By theme from Top to Bottom: Piston Cup Racers (CARS 1), World Grand Prix Racers (CARS 2) and Metallic World Grand Prix Racers.
If you’re keeping track, the Micro Drifters 11 Grand Prix Racers are complete including Rip Clutchgoneski. The Metallic WGP Racers are not yet complete.
And from top to bottom:
The Tuners (no DJ or Boost yet), CARS 2 Spy, Lemons, Lightning McQueen’s, Speedway Announcers, and Townies. No Lizzie, Guido & Red.
Though if you’re collecting them all, you will find a few duplicates (surprise!) including apparently a lot of Lightning McQueen’s & Orange Grem – seriously?
Missing Professor Z variant photos HERE.
And while Mack is not really canon, I’m guessing Colossus XXL probably is in scale?
The Micro Drifters World Grand Prix Multi-Car Launcher is coming out soon.
Thanks for the nice pics, “John H.” – who’s got more MD’s Grem’s than him?! 🙂

I collect all the micro drifters cars and planes.
From John H pics I am currently missing only mater duh.
I have the other 3 mater.
1-mater(ordinary)
2-mater (racer with 95 on the side)
3-mater with weapons
Does anybody know if Mater racer with the 95 on the side is the same as Mater on the metallic collection?
I got so many duplicates that I don’t remember if the Mater 95 is one and the same as Mater metallic or is it two different micro drifters?
Oh and hi everyone!! 🙂
Since it appears they have released everything, does anyone have a complete list?
(MET: This was from the launch party way back when – I think it’s pretty complete?)
I just wanted to buy a few of these for my daughter for Christmas, but now I’m kind of obsessed and need to collect them all.
Just to let everybody know. Just found the most recent released micro drifters cars listed
At my local TARGET store today in California.
Also found one set at toys r us.
Red & Guido & Luigi
Kabuto & Yokoza & shu todoruki
DJ & Boost & lighten McQueen
I collect them for fun. Currently have all the ones that is currently out in california. Just got the micro drifters Red and guido pack at my local toys r us today.
If anybody interested I can take a pic of mycollection and show it here.
We have most,they sit in the display with the Lego cars.
The micro planes are even cooler.
I could be mistaken, but there are 2 versions of Prof Z. One with the growl and the monacle, and one with no monacle and a pouty face…I believe the monacle version is the newer one with acer and Grem…
I’ve bought every 3 pack and did not end up with as many acers or grems…weird
There are two Professor Zs, we’ve never seen the monocle version in a store.
It could be International only? Here’s the only package picture that we’ve found. (from an Amazon seller)

I like the Micro Drifters, but I don’t collect them. I only get the ones I want, which are usually just the Piston Cup Racers and more recently the tuners.
Funny because I asked that same question just a few days ago!
I’m a huge fan of Micro Drifters. I recently bought a whole ton of 3 Packs on ebay for retail price since stores around here aren’t restocking. Currently the only ones I’m missing are the Planes, Yellow Ramone, Metallic Radiator Springs McQueen, and the Metallic WGP Racers.
If you buy all the 3-packs which contain at least 1 new drifter (the way I do it), you will get 1 Grem. Grem has only been released in 2 different 3-packs (with Acer & Holley, and with Professor Z & Acer I think).
Lightning is released a lot (across 6 variations so far), but overall the repetition is a lot less than in the multi packs available for diecasts.
I’m a fan of the drifters, if it wasn’t obvious.
I hope our group photo isn’t too misleading. As you might have figured, my kids prefer the Lemons to anything else. The extra Grems and Acers are easy to find cheap on eBay… so we do! 🙂
Mattel has had the Multi-car Launcher on their site for a couple of weeks at $15.00

And the Fast Flip Raceway for about $31.00
I want to say that the Cars 2 racers are the first complete set of anything that Mattel has ever given us.
I started collecting them but stopped because we were getting to many mcqueens and at $6 a pack I was tired of so many duplicates!
