On that blue one - That would be great if you had one, bobbie. I've been driving the wife crazy with all this "I'm off to the toy department!" "But honey, we're in Garden Ridge", "oh, never mind, I'll be sitting in the snack bar with the rest of the old geezers"

I'm good on the showcase, and the JL eb's (black and white). But I'd be interested in the Hall of Fames, since I mailed mine overseas and opened the others I'm needing one of each for the vault! Let me know??

Congrats on the White Lightning!

Bobbie
I saw that at my local TRUs. I have every other JL MINI, but I couldn't find myself dropping $11 for a set that only had one car of interest.

I guess I'll have all but that one.... for now.

Thanks
I'll keep an eye out for it. I'm looking for a first run JL, IJ CLEAN RED and CLEAN WHITE, mint on card.

They must be first runs, with the METAL bottoms. I have a full set of the second run with the black plastic bottoms, MOC, but only the blue of the first run. Let me know if anybody runs across any.

Sorry. Let me clarify.
The JL IJ MINIs came clean with metal bottoms on the first run.

The second run came dirty AND clean with black plastic bottoms.

I'm trying to get hold of the red and white, MOC of the first run.

The only way you can tell the difference between the first and second run clean cars, other than the bottoms, is that the card on the first run has the choking hazard warning just in English and the second run has the choking hazard warning in 2 languages.

I still see the clean ones hanging in the stores around here. I'll have to check to see if they are metal base or not. Going to be tough buying them now and having the card be Mint. They've fallen off those damn hangers about a 1,000,000 times already

It was a present from my daughter, but I think she picked it up on eBay. She's a power seller and spends more time there then I do on MINI message boards! I know hard to believe! I thought I had seen one of those Alternators in MINI format on eBay about 5 months ago. It was a seller from Hong Kong, so even though I was interested I was leery of bidding. I've been keeping an eye out for one here stateside ever since. They look like a much better build quality they the one I've got.

Nice Corgies! No one locally sells them, wish they would as I've always loved the quality feel of a good builder. Maybe it's time to start getting only Top Quality models???

Thanks!

Here is my favorite MINI model. It's a Schuco Hannover Airport "Follow Me" MINI Cooper in 1:87 scale. This is a real MINI and I got to see it, and got the model at the Strahlung Pur II meet last year in Düsseldorf, Germany.

Pezboy - I picked that up about two years ago as an impulse purchase while my Mini was on order from corgi.co.uk Here's a better picture of it.
