what are the 5 new pixar cars diecast cars that are coming in stores?

Answer 1

The 6 new pixar diecast cars, rumoured to be coming out in the Fall of 2006, are Michael Schumacher Ferrari, Hudson Hornet Doc, Young Mater, Radiator Springs McQueen, Hamm the Pig Car, and Yellow Ramone. These cars have even been advertised on toywiz.com as "Coming Soon".

[1st wave] - Mattel originally released 12 individual blister pack diecast cars (Lightning McQueen, Mater, Sally, Doc Hudson, Sheriff, Wingo, DJ, Fillmore, The King, Chick Hicks, Lizzie, Sarge), together with 4 Movie-Moments blister packs featuring a further 9 diecast cars (Stanley & Red, Boost & Snot Rod, Flo & Ramone, Luigi, Guido & Tractor). [2nd wave] - In mid-Jun 2006, Mattel released 4 more individual blister pack diecast cars (Dinoco McQueen, Green Ramone, Leakless, Nitroade). [3rd wave] - The 6 new Pixar diecast cars (in individual blister packs and possibly even in Movie-Moment blister packs) are expected to appear in stores across U.S by Dec 2006 (some say as early as Sept 2006).

Personally, as a collector myself, I hope that Mattel produce brand new Pixar diecast cars (like the Apple race car, the Mia and Tia twins, Frank, and even more random NASCAR race cars like they did for Nitroade and Leakless) rather than churn out mere repainted variants of the existing cars in the diecast series (ie. Ramone, McQueen, Mater and Doc Hudson).
