Cars Toons is a television series of American computer-animated short films produced by Pixar. It features the main characters Lightning McQueen and Mater from Pixar's Cars franchise non-canonically in the original plot. Larry the Cable Guy reprises his role as Mater while Keith Ferguson replaces Owen Wilson as the voice of Lightning McQueen until The Radiator Springs 500 ½, when Wilson reprises his role.

The series premiered on October 27, 2008 on both Disney Channel, Toon Disney and ABC Family. Not exclusive to television, the shorts were also released on home media and/or as theatrical shorts. The series ended its run on May 20, 2014 with The Radiator Springs 500 ½ being the final short to be made.

Premise [edit]

Mater's Tall Tales [edit]

All Cars Toons in Mater's Tall Tales follow the same tall tale formula: the episode opens with Mater popping out of his garage and declaring, "If I'm lyin', I'm cryin'!" (or a variation thereof as seen on the home media and television releases).

Mater then proceeds to tell a far-fetched story about something he supposedly did in the past to Lightning McQueen, to which the action shifts to Mater's story. At a midway point, the action briefly shifts back to Mater and McQueen in which Mater proclaims that McQueen was also involved, telling him, "Don't you remember? You was there, too!" (or also some other variation thereof). The flashback then resumes with McQueen's sudden (and usually unwilling) participation. Once Mater finishes his tall tale, (with the exception of Tokyo Mater) McQueen insinuates or argues to him that Mater's story wasn't true at all. Mater then says, "Well, suit yourself!". (or also some variation thereof). Then, coincidentally, one or more characters or elements involved in the story appear, paradoxically suggesting the story might have been authentic. McQueen then breaks the fourth wall by looking at the camera with shock, (or also other variation thereof) for he believed that Mater's tall tale was real.

The episode ends with Mater and McQueen posing in their corresponding story's costumes (excluding Tokyo Mater). All episodes feature Mia and Tia and various pit crew forklifts in support roles (except for Time Travel Mater).

Tales from Radiator Springs [edit]

All Cars Toons in Tales from Radiator Springs simply follow the comedic antics and adventures of McQueen, Mater and their friends in their hometown Radiator Springs, following the events of Cars 2.

Production [edit]

After the success of Cars, production of Cars Toons: Mater's Tall Tales began in 2006. The first nine shorts were produced by Pixar and Walt Disney Television Animation, while all the following shorts were produced by Pixar's subsidiary, Pixar Canada.^[1]

"Tokyo Mater" premiered in theaters in the US with Bolt on December 12, 2008. The short is the first Disney·Pixar production presented in Disney Digital 3-D.^[2] However, the DVD release features a different short, Super Rhino. Sulley and Mike from the 2001 film Monsters, Inc. (also made by Pixar) make cameo appearances in "Tokyo Mater" as their car forms from the ending of the first film.

Release [edit]

Merchandise [edit]

It was announced^{[ citation needed ]} that Cars Toons: Mater's Tall Tales was to be released as part of the Disney·Pixar Cars Die-Cast Line in mid-2009. In October 2009, they released several die-casts. They released all of the "Rescue Squad Mater" and "Mater the Greater" die-casts, and they are working on "El Materdor" die-casts and reverse.

Video game [edit]

A video game based on the series also titled Cars Toon: Mater's Tall Tales and developed by Papaya Studio, was released on October 19, 2010 for the Wii.^{[3] [4]} A PC version was also released outside the United States.^[5]

Home media [edit]

A DVD and Blu-ray compilation of the first nine shorts, titled Cars Toons: Mater's Tall Tales, was released on October 31, 2010. The compilation includes "Mater the Greater", "Rescue Squad Mater", "Monster Truck Mater", "Unidentified Flying Mater", "El Materdor", "Moon Mater", "Heavy Metal Mater", "Mater Private Eye" and "Tokyo Mater",^[6] with Moon Mater and Mater Private Eye created exclusively for this set.^[7] Choosing the "Play All" option from the menu gives each short (except for Mater the Greater which plays first) unique intros.

The remaining two episodes of Mater's Tall Tales, "Air Mater" and "Time Travel Mater" were released on the Pixar Short Film Collection, Volume 2. And the three episodes of Tales from Radiator Springs, "Hiccups", "Bugged" and "Spinning" were released on YouTube. The remaining episode of Tales from Radiator Springs, "The Radiator Springs 500 ½" was released on the Pixar Short Films Collection, Volume 3.

Future [edit]

In addition to "The Radiator Springs 500 ½," which was released in 2014, director Rob Gibbs revealed at the 2013 Disney D23 Expo a fifth Cars Toons: Tales from Radiator Springs episode titled "To Protect and Serve." The short was expected to debut in 2014 on Disney Channel,^[8] but to date this has not occurred.^[9]
