Mattel Disney Pixar CARS: NASCAR CARS Series 2021 …
Thanks “Michael S.” for the heads up and photos.
Crew Chief Mater
Pit Crew Luigi & Guido.
There’s also a Lightning & Jackson Storm.
This is a WALMART exclusive. Apparently, there may be “real” NASCAR drivers in this series? There is some official tie-in with real NASCAR races, contests and other events tied in with 15th anniversary of CARS. The NASCAR season is just starting so more details to follow.
Unfortunately Mater has a plastic bed and segmented plastic front.
The plastic colour looks so different from the shiny deep red.
Not so nice 🙁
It looks like they have released some of the NASCAR drivers in this series:

Nice! I really like the new paint scheme for Lightning.
I’ve been seeing these on E-bay within the last 10 days or so. I have not seen them at any Walmart yet. I’m mainly interested in the pit crew members myself.
On a side note, I spoke with a Walmart employee on Saturday the 6th about a Cars toys shipment as the pegs were virtually empty. She was very helpful-she scanned the UPC code of two different single packages and told me they were expecting a shipment on March 6th. MARCH! I was pretty surprised. Anyone have any thoughts on that? Do they get shipments once every 6-8 weeks?
Thanks.
(MET: There is no real set schedule … the NASCAR series should hit pegs soon as the Daytona 500 is this weekend? It has its own SKU/UPC – March is probably the singles AD case? There is also a 2-pack case coming soon).
Thank you for the info, Met-you’re the best!
March 6th make sense. Target are having a sale 3 cars for $10 until 2/20… of course there is no cars on the pegs… so no deal to be done!… Need to be patient for another month I guess.
