Is the Cars 2013 collection the swansong?
Although it didn't apply to the UK or Europe as we got into the Cars 2013 groove after the Christmas decorations were well and truly a piece of 2012 history, by this time last year, we knew what Mattel was planning on bringing out in 2013.
Met on T5AD and Arbara on CTT both posted the initial information on the 2013 Themes by now and the first ten or so case contents were also known shortly after.
What does the lack of 2014 information actually mean?
Is the 2013 Themes, a sort of 'Greatest Hits' of Cars and Cars 2 really the swansong?
With Pixar and Disney going their separate ways in their latest spat, it's looks like there won't be another Cars movie. There was very little chance of a Cars 3 even before both sides threw their dummies out their metaphoric prams!
We've had huge collections before, World of Cars and Race O Rama spring to mind. Indeed, there were originally supposed to be 109 singles as part of the Race O Rama series, following on from 69 World of Cars singles.
How can Mattel possibly top the current series? What could they do in 2014 that would be better than the Themes?
A reissue of the whole Speedway of the South?
A reissue of all the Haulers plus all the unreleased ones?
A reissue of all the Deluxe plus all the unreleased ones?
A reissue of all the Double packs plus all the unreleased one?
Full sets of the 11 Cars 2 racers, metallic, rubber tyred, ...
Any other ideas?
