I just checked in on TakeFiveADay... According to Met, it looks like US cases J, K, L, and W have been canceled:

Super Chases are pushed back to the 2013 Mattel year which starts around November 1, 2012... supposedly Walmart will be receiving the new Cars either in an exclusive pallet (end cap) or as first to market... exclusive cases N and P... Based on what I've seen in Walmart stores, due to Mattel distribution and case assortments they'd cut way back on the size of their Cars section.
I'm hoping to confirm with JMDL Toys shortly... to those without access to well-stocked Walmart stores, this is not good news.
New Cars affected by this include Galloping Gear Grinder, Nick Cartone, Chase Fabrizio, Chase Celine, Sir Harley Gassup, Mary Scgocar, Acer with Torch, Alexander Hugo with Party Hat, and Ultimate Chase Cars Vitaly Petrov (Russia) and Memo Rojas (Mexico).
Depending on when Walmart gets this pallet, that could mean why the UK doesn't get new Cars cases until the October/November time frame... as Walmart is an extremely large retailer, they might have insisted on a 60 day period before other retailers get the merchandise.
