Mods, delete or move or merge this post into whatever is appropriate. I searched for this topic and I don't think it has yet been covered, but I also didn't try that hard.
At Walmart yesterday I saw these CARS, but did not find them significant until I saw on here that they had not been reported by anyone else to my knowledge. I went back tonight and snatched them up for research purposes.
There is a new sub-line of singles with a "Poster Sticker Inside" snipe on the top left and a sticker sheet inside. Below the pegs on the shelf were free folded posters which open up to reveal a backdrop of Radiator Springs for your stickers.
The CARS I found were Hudson Hornet PC LMQ (x2), Snot Rod with Flames (clear flames, x2), Max Schnell, and Carla Veloso with Flames.
The snipe is actually part of the cardback and not a sticker added on. The stickers inside are hard to see from some angles, so at first I didn't notice a difference. Each sticker sheet has a picture of the car and a few other accessories like a road sign or a fire extinguisher for Carla with Flames. The back of the cards are identical to the regular singles.
Opened up, the poster has a checklist which also lists Marlon "Clutches" McKay and Kabuto as part of this series. I did not see those two at the store. I saw regular Kabutos without stickers, but no other CARS with the sticker insert. The other side of the poster is blank. There was a whole stack of them available. I took 6, one for each car I purchased. It didn't seem like they had been touched by anyone else.
They were pegged and priced with the regular singles, but they rang up as "CARS PROMO" on the receipt.
Has anyone else seen these? Are they at all stores? What's the deal with this promo, is it for Black Friday and was put out early at my store? Is this all an illusion? What do the carded collectors think about this? I have many more questions than answers at this time.
