Anyone else collecting these? Post what you have and need

I have several and know I am missing Leak Less and New Mater (probably more)

ok, now that the official thread is up.

I just recently got interested in these a few weeks before Christmas, and liek anything that you know NOTHING about I was at Target and they had a TON out. I could have bought every one that is pictured ont he back of the cars if I wanted too. They were all there, I checked. Not knowing anythign I Assumed that the one character that came in three different colors would be one of the harder ones to get, but they had them all! ( They had a lot of NEW MATER. The wife and I commented several times about him as he was not featured in the movie. I thought he might be a hard one to find for that reason, but they had over half a dozen of them.~ I thought that the Hornet and non Hornet versions of the judge car would be hard too, but again, they had plenty. They only had one of the girls, and for some STUPID REASON I didnt get her.....

)

We bought a few, and I thought I could easily go back for more, but now I cannot find these anywhere!

I just got the Radiator Springs race set for my son this past Christmas and I want to get some more CARS for him, (Even though Lightning seems to be the only one we have that actually works well in the track so far?)

My ultimate questions are:

Have THESE been released yet?

A two-pack of “Toy Story’s” Buzz and Woody, in car form.
A two-pack of “Monsters Inc.’s” Mike and Sully, in car form.
You also can buy a special carrying case that holds up to 16 cars.

and

are the CARS pictured on the back of the individual car packaging all that have been released thus far? Are there more on the way?

thanks for any info!

that is the question I am trying to resolve myself. I have all but two pictured on the back. I also have the two packs that I have seen on the shelves.

P1X4R has them all I think so he may be able to chime in ... I would love to get a comprehensive checklist going

Ryche - you will kick yourself a lot for passing on an entire set ... I have been chasing these for a while and have never seen even close to an entire set on the rack at one time. I do think that the shelves will get flooded with these in the next week or so before being scarce again.
