While at the Disneyland Resort earlier this month for D23 Expo 2017, I had a chance to bring a few of the newly released Cars 3 Pop! Vinyls from Funko with my for a quick photo shoot in Cars Land at Disney’s California Adventure.

First up, Luigi and Guido visited Luigi’s Casa Della Tires (also home to the Luigi’s Rollickin Roadsters attraction). The Luigi and Guido Pop! Vinyls are Walmart exclusives here in the US.

 

Then, the metallic Cars 3 Lightning McQueen took a ride on Route 66 past Radiator Springs and into Ornament Valley, the setting for the Radiator Springs Racers attraction. This version of McQueen is exclusive to Target here in the US.

 

Now, while not the most extensive photo shoot I have taken at a Disney Park, this was a lot of fun. I had a few fellow park guests and even a couple of cast members stop and ask me about these particular Pop! Vinyls, since they are exclusives and not available everywhere. There was a lot of excitement about Luigi and Guido in particular. I had a few people ask if they could also snap a photo of them in front of the Casa Della Tires sign before they went on in to ride the Rollickin Roadsters.

Also, Cars Land is just a very fun, very immersive area of Disney’s California Adventure, and the experiences change throughout the day, which is fun. Visiting Ornament Valley in the evening during sunset was especially nice. Kudos to Disney and Pixar for creating a very beautiful area.
