The special for this set ,each car has its own unique set of variants.They came with multiple character versions.For example ; Lightning McQueen is available in two body versions,muddy and clean,other cars came with eyes looking left ,up, down or right.Some said that to complete this set ,we have to collect 26 versions.You can see them in the pics below,thanks this wonderful pics from Mr.Somchai collector in Thailand.
CARS might be the last collection set from Mcdonald’s promo with Disney. They have agreed to end their happymeal partnership after long time working together.I hope they will join the business again cause many Disney happymeal sets are very cute.

I am Mostafa Al Ghali from Lebanon,the only McDonald’s collector here since 2000.
In 2006 CARS toys was not released in Lebanon cause of Summer War 2006.I am missing all the toys.
I’d like to buy a complete set with their variations if possible (8 original toys if found it is better).
