The Disney Store Diecast Line is a toy line that the Disney Store launched in 2006, and has been releasing several characters from the Cars movies, in the form of 1:43 scale diecast.

Overview

The Disney Store Diecast Line was launched in 2006, a few months before Cars hit the theaters. There were 12 diecast releases, as well as pullbacks and light-up vehicles, and a few playsets.

The diecasts were sold in a red blister card up until 2009, when the acrylic case packaging style was introduced. They featured a different name tag and background for every character.

When Cars 2 was released in 2011, over 20 new models hit the market and since then there has been a line extension to release a good number of characters.

In May 2013, the Disney Store began selling Planes merchandising.

Five Piston Cup racers were added to the line, a couple of which had not been released by the Disney Store's rival line, the 1:55 Scale Diecast, so they were the most popular among all of the models.

The cardback was also updated, since more models were released. Pinstripe McQueen was the only one not featured on the cardback, and the Fabulous Hudson Hornet was, though he wasn't released until a year afterward.

Trivia

  • A 22-pack was released, including a mix of Cars and Cars 2 characters called "World of Racing". In Europe, it is only a 20-pack due to Brent and Darrell not being included.
  • Lee Revkins was produced as an acrylic box single in very limited numbers, and was distributed to very few stores, making it extremely rare.
  • Skipper's wings are changeable from flat-top mode to flight mode.
  • Franz's wings are changeable from driving mode or flight mode.
  • For some reason, Grem is referred to as "Gremlin".
  • Rasta Carian is strangely referred to as "Rastacarian".
