Is "Tokyo Mater" enough to tempt you to see Bolt?
When I broke the News about Tokyo Drift back on November 18th (Click to Read), I didn't have any pictures for you. Here's a look at our heros Mater and Lightning McQueen all tripped out for some "Drifting" Tokyo style!
Starting on December 12, 2008 you'll be able to see "Tokyo Drift," the fourth and final short from "Mater's Tall Tales" as an intro to Bolt in 3D! My sources indicate this is likely to be the final "Interstitial," and it appears to me to be a bridge to "Cars 2, The Global Race!"
You can also count on seeing these versions of Mater and Lightning added to the 1:55th scale die cast "Mainline" in the future! Yeah man! More cool toys to add to your growing collection.

I told you I heard how incredible Mater's Tall Tales "Tokyo Drift" turned out! It may be the last interstitial, and a very important one. It may give us a clue as to a bridge between Cars and Cars 2! I heard it was a much longer Cars Toons episode at approximately five to six minutes long. This is twice as long as the first three. I was told it is the best of "Mater's Tall Tales!" I also heard it has dialogue that may indicate John Lasseter is using this as the bridge to "The Global Race" by taking us to Japan!
With this intriguing info, let me tell you a bit more...the die cast toys from "Rescue Squad Mater," "Mater The Greater," "El Materdor," and "Tokyo Drift" are expected to be part of the "MAINLINE." They are expected to start showing up in the summer next year. I've also heard we MAY see a NEW Collector Guide with Dragon Lightning McQueen (He's in Tokyo Drift), similar to the recently released Collector Guide with Night Vision Lightning McQueen! Yes, I wish I had pics of Tokyo Drift! For now, enjoy the news. Once I can post pictures, you can be sure I'll happily share them!

What do you get when you cross "The Fast And The Furious, Tokyo Drift," with "Mater's Tall Tales?" The fourth Cars Toons short, "Tokyo Drift!" In the next "Interstitial," Mater goes to Japan and becomes a great "Drifter!" I was told it is absolutely fantastic, and that the die cast toys will be equally superb!
I've already been informed that the sculpts for Mater the Fire Engine are terrific! How cool will Mater as Evil Knievel be?!! How about El Materdor?!! These all promise to be some of the best designs to be released next year!
I've yet to have the opportunity to see any of "Mater's Tall Tales." They all look to maintain the Pixar standard of quality and story! I haven't heard how many of the "Interstitials" will be done, but can't wait for them to be released on DVD and Blu-Ray! As soon as I get pics of anything, I'll be sure to post them!
