Cars 20th Anniversary Prizes Land at Namco Amusement Facilities
The prize lineup ties the Cars anniversary to Namco's physical and online crane channels, giving the franchise a dedicated merchandise push at amusement facilities.
Reporting from 1 source: Inside.
Bandai Namco Experience will release three Cars prizes from August 21 at amusement facilities Namco nationwide and Namco Online Crane. The lineup marks the 20th anniversary of the Disney & Pixar film and includes a large Lightning McQueen plush, five mascot types, and a storage box with an opening top.
The Cars 20th anniversary lineup is built around a single hero item: the Super Large Shiny Fabric Plush of Lightning McQueen, made with a sparkling fabric meant to stand out on a prize shelf. The other two pieces are smaller and more practical. The Shiny Fabric Mascot set covers five familiar characters at about 10 cm tall, while the Platinum Zacca Storage Box doubles as room decor at roughly 10 cm by 21 cm by 7 cm.
All three items roll out sequentially from August 21. Bandai Namco Experience is routing them through its own channels, amusement facilities Namco nationwide and the Namco Online Crane service, rather than general retail.
- Cars Super Large Shiny Fabric Plush Lightning McQueen: large plush with a sparkling shiny fabric
- Cars Shiny Fabric Mascot (5 types): familiar characters as mascots about 10 cm in size
- Cars Platinum Zacca Storage Box: Lightning McQueen storage box that opens from the top, about 10 cm x 21 cm x 7 cm
