Mattel Disney Pixar CARS Diecast: German Promo CAR Upgrade!
The German Mail-away promo offer didn’t look too terribly interesting – Send in 4 UPC’s for what looked like White Walls Lightning McQueen …
But it looks like they didn’t really have a photo of the final promo … it’s actually METALLIC Lightning McQueen with Bumper Stickers.
(“Mit Aufklebern” that’s German for “With Sticker.”)
Lightning McQueen with Bumper Stickers was the first CHASE CAR ever released in the US but never with Metallic Paint so NEW VARIANT!
This Metallic Paint Lightning McQueen with Bumper Stickers is not shown on the poster as a 2013 release BUT this may be the Metallic Lightning McQueen available in the Kmart CARS Event Day Case coming in October. Besides Rip Clutchgoneski (presumably available in Silver Metallic), the other listing was for a Metallic Lightning McQueen – the best guess was it was a metallic Hudson Hornet Piston Cup Winner Lightning but this actually makes more sense as a silver Metallic HH PC McQueen didn’t really fit in any series of releases of “WGP Racers” (as we already got the regular Silver Metallic WGP LM). But we don’t know for certain just yet.
Thanks for the great photos, “Dodger!”

Is that a tar spot on the front right fender of McQueen?
yes, it is a tar spot
I never got White Walls McQueen, so I would be up for getting one of these.
I’ve always been a sucker for the metallics 🙂
How many Mcqueens does anyone really want or need?
this is boring lack of imagination really.
I have to agree. I hate to be a hater but whenever I see a new McQueen, it makes me want to scream. (And not in a good way.) I can easily think of a dozen characters that I’d like to see released or re-released before this one.
Glad my 15 promo cars arrived today as well.
But it looks like the limit is not 5 per person as stated in the add, but 5 per household. I sent in the codes with my name and received a package saying: Family….
For the other codes I sent in on my neighbors names there were also packages saying Family….
gipsy_02 – if you are willing to sell or trade any of your extras, please let me know. Thanks!
For now all of my promos re gone, but hope to get more of them before the promotion ends. If yes, I will let you know.
Very nice… I could go for a re-release of Chase Cars with metallic paint… although a metallic paint rusty Car like Fred would seem a little out of place.
We’ve had DJ with metallic paint – the rest of the Tuners with metallic paint would be cool.
