  • The 2017 Cars Poster is here (3/16/17)

    Believe it or not... the 2017 Cars Poster is here! Check out the website play.mattel.com/cars

    Here are the 12 announced themes:


    Hidden away: Mater Gets Knighted with a new Palace Cargoyle and Funny Face Mater:



    In Radiator Springs, there's a new flashback Car named Nicky B:

    Thanks to RCcars5 for the heads up!

    Once Photobucket gets working again I'll try to upload larger photos... Update - Photobucket no longer allows me (or others) to upload PDF files... I saved it as a JPEG - I will try to take the larger PDF file of the poster and split it into smaller .JPG files.

          Thanks for the pics! It got me thinking...I wonder how much of an overlap there will be between Cars2 and Cars3 products when Cars3 is released in June. Not all retailers will have the space for both lines consecutively. Cheers

            Not many new cars!

            Looks like they are wrapping up old cars before cars 3 hits.

              True. Most are re-releases of 2 packs in single form or Piston Cup racers that should have already been released into the main line. Been an interesting couple of months in the U.K with a couple of new cases in store and being and 'addict' I couldn't help but pick em up!

                There's supposed to be 12 or 14 singles cases this year. Four cases have been already been announced for the themes, three are out in the US and Europe, with the first two in the UK. Another two cases are supposed to be released between now and the end of April in the UK. Apart from Tesco, it looks like ASDA, Morrisons and Sainsburys are holding off until Cars 3 merchandise is released in May in the UK?

                The actual mix of the remaining ten singles cases is unknown, but it could either been four to six Cars 3 exclusive singles then four to six 'mixed' cases of Cars 1/2/3 themes as it looks like Cars 3 is just an extended set of themes!?

                I don't know this for sure, it's just a guess.

                Disney Stores were one of the retaillers who had some 2017 singles. They told me yesterday that stocks are now exhausted and there will be no further stocks of Mattel singles until Cars 3 singles are released in May. They will be stocking their own Cars 3 ranges from the first week in April.

                  Great additions, VANDANCE! I see several in your picture that I am still waiting for... and as niftynigel said, we are waiting to learn the forthcoming case assortments.

                      You are so right, madbob.

                      Mater Gets Knighted: Funny Face Mater and Palace Cargoyle.
                      Piston Cup Pit Crew: Transberry Juice Cab and for those who missed the Vinyl Toupee hauler, the Vinyl Toupee Cab.
                      Piston Cup: Faux Wheel Drive... first singles releases with plastic tires of Rev N Go and Vinyl Toupee.
                      Piston Cup Reporters: Bob and Darrell now come with microphones
                      Race Fans: Wilmar Flattz
                      London Chase: Fighting Face Mater, Vladimir Trunkov with boot, and Body Shop Union Jack Ramone.
                      Radiator Springs: Nicky B

                      That's 8 Cars and 2 microphone accessories... that's not much at all... everything else is a re-release.

                        I agree. There are barely many new releases, but don't forget Vladimir Trunkov with Car Boot in the London Chase series.

                          Thank you, RCcars5... I missed Vladimir Trunkov with boot when I went through the poster early this morning.
