Looking for BRG/black toys

rlnewby · #1 11-11-2007, 06:23 PM

I would like to find BRG/black any year (a classic would be sweet) Mostly I would like an 07. I know it is early. But the worst that can happen is the answer NO.

Thanks in Advance

I found a Classic that was green(not really a BRG)/black at Dollar General several months ago, but haven't seen any recently. I'll keep looking.

As for MINI's, I haven't seen any.

Green is great too.

Do you think I should Ask about them in the GIANT toy thread?

Just find a nice green model, mask off the roof, and spray paint it with model paint.

Well if you can point me to some I would gladly look at them. There seems to be a distinct lack of green mini/MINIs. That I can find.

Thanks

i always see quite a few of the green Hot Wheels Classic Minis on Ebay. Not sure what scale you're looking for.

I do have a Maisto 1:18 R50 Green/White that you could paint the roof black

Can't hurt to ask in the MINIMini Toys - Die Cast thread. There are enough people who check that thread that you would probably get a lot more help.

I just went through my collection of Hot Wheels/Matchbox scale cars and found a green/white Matchbox Superfast (#12), the the green/black Classic I mentioned earlier, a green/white Siku, and a green/white MINI from Dollar General that another NAM member sent to me.

You might also check someplace like www.peoplekars.com. They have a "MINI Cooper Garage" section. I haven't been there in a while, but I remember some green Classic Minis there in the past.

I'll keep my eyes open for something that matches what you're looking for.
