Hi, I started collecting the racers late and figured if I'm already late, I should make sure I get the latest upgrades. I know McQueen, Jeff Gorvette and Max got unibody upgrades and there is a Shu upgrade. Are there any others?

I believe all of them are unibody now…if you can find them.

Shu is Unibody now? I know of the black vs. white splitter variant but I didn't think he was one piece.

I believe Shu, Lewis, and Carla have one-piece frontends in the new singles case H.  Carla doesn't look much different than the original 2-piece release, as the green in the decal and the green of the plastic shell as seen around her mouth area are clearly different.  It seems like someone mentioned seeing other racers as 1-piece in some box set configurations.  Does someone have a list?

I've heard that some people are finding one-piece Lewis in the RS Ramone box set at Target, while others are not. Do you know if the new unibody Shu has the black base like the other single?

Shu has always been one piece.

 

Lewis was a two piece in the Radiator Springs sets at our Target.

Jeff Gorvette was a new one piece casting however.

My Shu is two piece. The Silver Seires Shu was only one piece, but the Shu I bought in the Launcher and in the Single are two piece.

You are right Embarassed and I even went and looked before I wrote before. Our white, black and rubber tired Shus are all two piece. I looked for a seam down at the spoiler lip not up above the headlights.

Thanks for keeping me honest.

Black; also all three (Carla/Shu/Lewis) Case H singles have the no-side cut cardback, though Carla still just has the original back of card list of 16 cars.  Lewis has his teethgap as well.  I don't see anything else of note.

I got my case P yesterday and was looking at the 4 racers that are in there. Miguel and Max are clearly unibody, but I can't tell on Nigel and Raoul. I don't want to open them to make sure, does anyone know if these were supposed to be unibody? Nigel is especially hard to see because I think he has a line there anyway.
