From Cars 3, here we have another newly released Mattel 1:55 scale diecast...Muddy Rust-eze Racing Center Lightning McQueen! This was another one I found just a couple days ago at my nearest Walmart. Though this isn't the most exciting or different variant of McQueen to date, it was still so fun to find something new in the wild. I do honestly love that we get different versions of the character like this to recreate very specific movie moments, even though to some collectors are entirely sick of getting so many different variations of McQueen at this point.
He is part of this year's "Thunder Hollow" sub-series and was recently released in Case F. As shown in the screen shot above, this diecast is based on when McQueen is accidentally exposed after the Crazy 8 Demolition Derby race (when Mr. Drippy sprays off his muddy "Chester Wipplefilter" disguise). I gotta say, this diecast looks phenomenal and has some fantastic mud/dirt and water details! His concerned expression is great too.
You can find this one in stores right now, so be sure to visit your nearest Walmart and Target soon! If you'd rather just pick him up online, you can check out eBay listings HERE (no Amazon listing yet).
Happy hunting! Let me know your thoughts down in the comments.
