Upcoming Pixar reader Brinke has sent in a picture of matchbox models of the Cars characters he has collected.

Pretty neat little collection there. I myself bought a Doc Hudson diecast matchbox model.

I think these diecast models are one of the best pieces of merchandise from the movie. However I have been reluctant to buy a Mater diecast, because as much as I love him, the diecast looks very un-metal like. I was very impressed also to see a 1:24 scale diecast model of Lightning McQueen. Looks very cool!

Brinke also points out that he found this on the Japenese Disney Story

Also, check out Brinke’s blog. He’s got some cool photos of the life-size Sally and Lightning cars, as well as photos of the 1:24 scale McQueen diecast and follow these links for pics of his collection of Pixar toys…

Thanks Brinke!
