I just got another Lightning McQueen mini racer diecast today, and thought of you~ I'm not sure if anyone's asked you yet, but what is your favorite Lightning McQueen paintjob?

Awww, it makes me happy that you thought of me! I hope your mini racer is enjoying his new home. :)

My favorite Lightning paintjob is this one, from Radiator Springs 500 1/2 (with or without the offroad mods, though those are fun too). But the paint specifically here just makes me happy.

He kept the Hudson Hornet Piston Cup hood sticker and his WGP wing, but swapped the paint out for a custom Willy’s Butte emblem and giant RADIATOR SPRINGS...

Then he’s got his flames, which Ramone did for the WGP (lined with vibrant green then to coordinate with the WGP logo, but not so much now) and then kept here (and brought back for Lightning’s second scheme in Cars 3). And in the place of his regular sponsor stickers all the businesses in town (in addition to the Piston Cup).

Here we go (plus what is probably a scandalous and censor-worthy amount of inner fender liner):

What’s great about these stickers, besides showing his love for his friends and his town, is that the stickers do actually mean something, lucky or not. There’s a lot of negotiation that goes on in terms of what you’re allowed to wear or be seen in public with when you’re sponsored, so even just to wear this for fun, for a casual race in RS, probably took some work on the parts of Rusty and Dusty and Sally and Harv (obligatory Harv reference).

I also love that it’s not just the town stickers--it’s also the Piston Cup still, and Rusteze (since they don’t get the hood space or the spoiler space any more), and Dinoco. Just like RS is his pit crew, both worlds are blended into one here--Lightning’s doing both and living the dream.

Also, Dinoco is not actually one of Lightning’s normal sponsors (outside of being the race fuel for everyone)! So like, Tex probably actually put some money into this RS race. XDDD 

Amazing.
