The Yellow Brick Posted October 16, 2010 Posted October 16, 2010 I was never a fan of Cars, but these sets sound quite interesting. Quote
Baylego Posted October 16, 2010 Posted October 16, 2010 How interesting. Does anyone know if they are duplo or not? I really hope they are not this time. Quote
Rick Posted October 16, 2010 Posted October 16, 2010 Does anyone know if they are duplo or not? Set numbers don't point in the direction of Duplo. Plus Duplo has a line up with some similar sets for this year already, so I guess they'll be like 'Racers'. Quote
The Yellow Brick Posted October 16, 2010 Posted October 16, 2010 How interesting. Does anyone know if they are duplo or not? I really hope they are not this time. I think they could be Normal lego (by normal I mean not duplo) because of 8484 Ultimate Build Lightning McQueen, it sounds like a really big set Quote
Milargo Posted October 16, 2010 Posted October 16, 2010 (edited) Well, this is a surprise! Too soon to tell if it's a good one. Is there a new Cars movie coming soon? If not, isn't this a bit late? Considering the movie came out in '06 I'm interested in this set 8484 CARS Ultimate Build Lightning McQueen If this is in fact a duplo line (Which wouldn't surprise me) we can anticipate a grand total of 10 pieces. Though, now that I think about it... With all those smooth curves, I'm betting a "UCS" piece count wont be much higher.. How interesting. Does anyone know if they are duplo or not? I really hope they are not this time. You read my mind. I think they could be Normal lego (by normal I mean not duplo) because of 8484 Ultimate Build Lightning McQueen, it sounds like a really big set They always do.

FinalFeature Posted October 16, 2010 Posted October 16, 2010 8426 5702014733442 CARS Escape at Sea 1.5.2011 I'm guessing this set is from the new film, it sounds interesting. I guess we should expect pictures soon then if the release date is the 5th of January. Is there a new Cars movie coming soon? If not, isn't this a bit late? Considering the movie came out in '06 The second cars film comes out on June 24th next year. LegoGalactus Quote
Solitary Dark Posted October 16, 2010 Posted October 16, 2010 Cars 2 (movie) is due next year - probably explains the volume of sets and that it moves from Duplo into racers territory. Theme of the Movie is World Grand Prix - Five races around the world with Lightning racing against a number of other cars, one of which is an English Spy called Finn McMissile. Mater is now the Crew Chief. Quote

Masked Builder Posted October 16, 2010 Posted October 16, 2010 I won't be getting any of these (my wallet is burning up from the other themes ) but I bet I'll get to build some. My little brother LOVES Mater. Quote

My sources told me that it is going to be like the Batman UCS... Well that's a relief, I feel sorry for the set's designer. Wonder how they'll pull off the expressions, stickers? I hope not.

Oky Posted October 16, 2010 Posted October 16, 2010 (edited) Sweet, finally some info on these sets! They do sound interesting, but since I'm not as much into Cars as I am into TS, I probably wont collect this theme, but I'll surely get a few of them. And as LegoGalactus said, some of these set names confirm what we have heard about the plot of the movie, so they probably aren't fake. Ultimate Build Lightning McQueen does indeed sound like it will be a UCS version of the character, but it could also be a small version with exchangeable exteriors, like 8184, such as Dinoco Lightning McQueen or some other new look from Cars 2. It's much more likely that it's a UCS though. Edited October 16, 2010 by Oky Wan Kenobi Quote
Mrlegoninja Posted October 16, 2010 Posted October 16, 2010 Well that's a relief, I feel sorry for the set's designer. Wonder how they'll pull off the expressions, stickers? I hope not. It will be made out of lots ofs 1x1 through 1x4 tiles in black and white. Quote

Though I hope, yet at the same time highly doubt that McQueen's model would be as nice as..... Twin X-treme RC. It will be made out of lots ofs 1x1 through 1x4 tiles in black and white. I'd like to see that, can never get enough of those pieces. Sadly I doubt this too, I get the sinking feeling it's gonna have heavy stickerage, I agree with Oky Wan in that it'll probably be a smaller set (Due to demographics.) and at a smaller scale it would be near impossible to "brick out" his creepy expresion. In fact, I wouldn't doubt him having multiple expression stickers on a couple interchangeable "face bricks", if that makes in sense in those terms. ... Twin X-treme RC. Quote
Oky Posted October 16, 2010 Posted October 16, 2010 I wouldn't doubt him having multiple expression stickers on a couple interchangeable "face bricks", if that makes in sense in those terms. True, that's another possibility. After all, Build-A-Bob had the same feature. As for Twin X-treme RC, I think it had a limited availability. I personally have never seen it in stores. But this is not the place to discuss this, so you might wanna ask the Racers fans about that. Quote
lightningtiger Posted October 16, 2010 Posted October 16, 2010 Back in August I was told by a Lego rep. I saw in a Target store said that Cars would have System and Duplo releases for 2011. Ouch, my wallet might just be hurting next year, but first I'll need to see what the sets look like. This theme might do better than TS3 did. Keep on......burning rubber ! Quote

Wunderbar, it'll be interesting to see how these sets look in system! I did enjoy the Toy Story 3 line, if Lego Cars is as cool as Lego TS3 count me in. Quote

Milargo Posted October 17, 2010 Posted October 17, 2010 I hope they release Hamm in Cars too Only if they release it as both a Toy Story 3 and Cars set at the same time, the Lego cross-over genre is very elusive you know. Quote
Blondie-Wan Posted October 18, 2010 Posted October 18, 2010 I'm looking forward to all this, even if my wallet isn't! I've said before that I thought they could do a large, detailed model of Lightning McQueen along the lines of a UCS set or a big Technic set; it looks like TLG agrees. I guess this means that the other sets are Lego! They're all LEGO, including the DUPLO. I think you mean the other sets are non-DUPLO. Quote
