— July 3, 2008 2 Comments

Mattel just announced some big news for San Diego Comic Con. If you haven’t heard already, the Lightningstorm McQueen will be a San Diego exclusive, available only at the show. In addition, for those of you attending Comic Con, Mattel also announced a special Cars event for 12 PM PT on Thursday. It sounds awesome! Here’s the description.
Come for an unveiling unlike anything in this galaxy for the CARS line.
In addition to that, Mattel is debuting a Collector Website the Monday after Comic Con with potential for exclusives from Cars, as well as other lines.
Starting the Monday after Comic Con, because you demanded it, Mattel will be launching a brand new Collector Website with the latest news, updates, previews and – the big one – EXCLUSIVE action figures from your favorite Mattel toy lines like CARS, DCU and more!
But there’s more. Are you sitting down for this one? Mattel will be selling a limited number of this year’s SDCC exclusives through the new website after the convention!
Of course we’ll have more details including the URL name at San Diego Comic Con, but we wanted to make sure to give online toy fans the scoop first. Oh – and to kick off the new online store, we’ll be putting aside a very limited number of each of this year’s SDCC exclusives which will go on sale on the new collector web site at 8:00 am Eastern Standard Time on July 28th.
From all that, it sounds like the future is looking good for Cars collectors. I will be bringing you all the Cars news coming out of San Diego, so stay tuned for the coverage! Comic Con will take place on July 24th-27th at the San Diego Convention Center.
Mattel will have more details on the new site at Comic Con.
Do you know when the site name will be released??
