Trivia

• Due to the guide following the character tickets for the singles line, characters exclusive to collector events, 2-packs and multipacks (such as the Piston Cup Racers, Woody, Buzz, Luigi, Guido, Finish Line Lightning McQueen, etc.) are not shown in this guide, despite being available in 2009.
• Numbers 111 to 115 were originally spots for the Rescue Squad Mater diecasts, meaning that the Cars Toon diecasts were originally meant to be part of the mainline, which wouldn't happen until 2023.
• Radiator Springs has the highest number of diecasts, with a total of 42.
