Originally posted by Bumper Save View PostYup, everything (singles, MM, launchers, multipacks, even MSOTS) has the older "sculpted" eyes up until the Piston Cup racers produced in the 2014 line. And even some of those have the old style eyes. Seems to be random which style eyes you have. I think Radiator Springs Classic cars still have the old style eyes, but I can't speak for the newer ones. It's worth checking on any Piston Cup racer you find in-store these days.

Originally posted by RRichie09 View PostYes it's hit or miss. I think the older 2014 have molded eyebrows and newer ones do not. Off all of the 2014 piston cup racers that I own, LMQ and Shiny Wax do not have molded eyebrows, but today I saw n2o cola and side wall shine at kmart that also do not have molded eyebrows.

I started to look at mine but its a bit tough to tell through the bubbles. I can see for comparison that 2013 Chick, and RSC Octane Gain do have molded. Nothing from 2014 that I initially checked appeared to have molded eyebrows. I might check through more of them later.

I can list them when I'm at my computer. BTW my piston cup racers are from the 11-pack mack box set.

Originally posted by Bumper Save View PostThanks, I appreciate that. Most of the singles do have flat eyes, like you said raginpage. I guess the multipack cars are more likely to have the molded eyes or sometihng.
I'm thinking since they switched from molded eyes to non-molded eyes, what we're seeing is that older 2014 cars have the molded eyes and the newer 2014 do not have molded eyes.
I wonder what genius came up with this cost saving idea. Hopefully this doesn't spread through the entire Cars line, but to be honest, if someone on the forum hadn't pointed it out to me, I never would have noticed.
