Update: Cars2 Crew Chiefs

[cac1959]

In a new post on TakeFiveADay, Met gives us an update on upcoming crew chiefs:

The good news - as mentioned as well on the Kmart 8 master carton poster, Miguel Camino and his crew chief (Petro Cartalina) and Max Schnell and his crew chief (Otto Bonn) will be in 2 packs that should be available to all retailers.

The not so good news - crew chiefs for Nigel Gearsley (Austin Littleton) and Raoul Caroule (Bruno Motoreau) will be with their racers in Target exclusive 4 packs along with 2 racers we already have plenty of (Lightning and Francesco with Nigel; Lewis and Jeff with Raoul)... I don't like paying $18.99 plus tax for 1 new Car, but I've been doing it since this line started and I will probably continue.

The bad news - according to Met, crew chiefs for Shu, Lewis, and Rip are not listed on product release sheets... so while we should be able to complete the set of World Grand Prix racers, we may not be able to complete their crew chiefs.

I would have liked to have seen Team Crew Sets with racer/crew chief/pitty... just like I would have liked to have seen them from Cars.

I'd like to get the rest of the Crew Chiefs and Pittys myself... you've done a fantastic job, Conrad, making your custom crew chiefs from Cars.
