Mattel Disney Pixar CARS 3: And Then There Were 3 … Missing
The calendar year is almost over and the CARS 3 year is just about over… we seem to have a few Metal Mini’s sneaking out but all the 1:55 Mainline seems to be out (whether it’s distributed to your local store is another matter).
The only three CARS 3 diecasts from the 2017 poster missing are …
Though technically Jocko Flocko Mack is out with its own trailer as a hauler at Walmart though the Deluxe version (listed here) might be missing the trailer hole plus without the trailer des constitute a separate character release.
Stu Scattershields is available in Europe but not officially released in the US.
Al Oft, while not a new character does sport a new look for CARS 3 so technically NEW.
I’ve asked around if there’s another Deluxe case listed as coming and no one has reported anything coming but until we start getting 2018 cards – only then we’ll know if they’re still coming, got canceled or moved to 2018 …

The pattern for 2017 is a game changer. I live in a city with a million people and a few hundred thousand around it. There are at least eight WM,five TRG, two TRU, two KM, Khols, and others. We have not received the last 2 cases or the last deluxe case. In the last 3 weeks I have been in Denver and Coeur d’Alene and in the places I checked the situation was the same. From my limited perspective it does not make distribution sense if Mattel desires more sales. In addition it makes no sense to collect this line if the only recourse is essentially ebay. Have a Merry Christmas!
Did find this case in Germany.
