1:87 scale MINI flashlight

We were at Castle Neuschwanstein (Disney's model for Cinderella's castle) here in Bavaria today and I found some Shuco key chain flashlights w/1:87 scale Mini Coopers...LEDs in the headlights. Pretty

All of them were yellow/black top and I only picked up 2 but we'll be heading home in that general direction if anyone really wants one. They were 8 Euro each...

The madness never really stops, does it?

EDIT: There were 3 left when we departed the fix so supplies are limied--though I'll kepp a look out in the toy stores around here too if y'all want one.

Ohh, I would love one! If you manage to get any, and you don't mind shipping to the states, I would love it (will pay all costs, of course!) Thanks!

Hey all,

Sorry for the late reply... I have one left and it's already promised to another NAM member. If he doesn't want it I'll let y'all know.

I'm also going to swing by the toy stores around here to see if I can find any more.

It's pretty cool actually...it's exactly the same as their other metal 1:87 scale cars but w/tiny LEDs in the headlights and a little switch in the bottom to turn them on. There's also a little slide out tab on the back end to hoo the key chain to it.

I'll try to post some pics tonight.

Just some fun info: it's actually called Schloss Neuschwanstein. The first word is German for "castle." Nueschwanstein means "new swan stone" literally. (Parents used to live in a small town outside Zurich so I don't know if my Schweizer-Deutsche can be translated correctly into Hoch-Deutsche, which is what they speak in Germany.)
