Just to avoid any confusion, yesterday’s checklist is for those of us who are willing to buy a 3rd Lizzie or a 15th Lightning McQueen but not two WOC Bling Bling McQueen’s!
DO NOT WANT!!!
So, to avoid any confusion, this list is EVERYTHING NEW from the post recall embargo CARS era – about September 2007 to today.
I only listed the “new” CARS or CARS Mattel has marked ‘new.’ For multi-packs or boxes, I only listed the ‘new’ CARS you’re should be looking for. In the case of the Movie Moments, I listed the last two Supercharged MM’s who left the stage and returned a few weeks later as World of Cars Movie Moments – since they’re the same CARS and the two Supercharged ones are harder to find for most people …
There were also some questions about what CARS were available as NEW and as “blank” so there are two check-off/bubble-in areas.
For collectors who open everything, you can ignore the check-off/bubble-in choices but for those MOC or MIB collectors (mint on card or mint in box), here is your checklist to be certain you have 2 of everything … or in some cases, 4 of everything – just likes Mattel likes it.
(TJ, Fred & Kori) – each available 4 different ways if you count CAR variants and packaging variants.
The just released GHOSTLIGHT RAMONE on WOC card comes in a ‘new’ and blank card version. And yes, you can argue until you too are blue in the face that’s it’s a lot of things but not new … though technically, it has never appeared on a WOC card so it’s “new,” to Mattel.
The Gift Packs (aka: 3-packs) do not have the “overall” interstate-design NEW like the individual cards but it does have the phrase “New Model” attached to the ‘new’ CAR within each 3-pack. And yes, there is a version without the mini banner “New Model.”
Confused? Now you get why Mattel does it. When in doubt, just buy it …
Speaking of which – when you get all dizzy from deciphering CARS, wouldn’t a t-shirt make a great soft pillow?
Buy a t-shirt from us
Of course, the main 2008 post is here.
Rest of posts are here.
Of course, the CARS packaging that do not come with both versions are listed with only one check-off/bubble-in area. Enjoy!

Where do you get all your info from.
Before this site, I had to continuesly search through ebay, but I had to search 4ever because all the times i checked it said ’7900 items’ I would have been there all week!
(METROXING: You mean besides the stuff I make up?
)
Hi. I just wanted to know if there was any way possible to get the number(#) for each car made for the cars movie. I keep finding lists, but they do not include the car #. My husband keeps track by car # and we r unsuccessful in locating all numbers for each car. Is there a website available? Thanx.
(METROXING: Do you mean the new numbering scheme started with the WOC cards? If so, just go to our EDITGRID spreadsheet, the left jand column shows all the CARS numbers that released so far).
