I picked up the Matchbox Chili Red Cooper S yesterday at Target. I checked another one today to no avail, but will check wally-world tomorrow. Not a bad replica in small scale of the S.

Just found 4 more of the white/green stripe SIKU brand Polizei Minis (old version--new ones are silver/blue stripe)... probably too late to get them to y'all in time for the GAp but does anyone need one still?

Bobbie,

Don't worry about it. I'm in absolutely no rush. Thanks again for thinking of me and congratulations on your son's wedding.

Well mine is easy: I found Mishka at the Beer Swap (I think ) and then again at the Dam Picture, where I picked up the yellow Herpa

I also met MINI_Bee but I missed minivern

Sorry we missed you minivern. I drove the Dragon 16 times while I was there (it was my first trip), so I wasn't around Fontana much. I did meet Smokey and Mishka. It's so nice to put faces with the names. I think Agro was supposed to be there too and I looked for his MINI hoping to find him, but no luck.

There wasn't anything real special in my trade box but I did have a nice, cool blue Maisto 1:24 cabrio that Mishka took in exchange for two Italian Job MINIs he sent me awhile back. So that worked out nicely.

Mishka also gave me a nice surprise from Rob, a 1:72 Schuco LY cabrio with two little people in the front seats! Thanks Rob! Very unique.

No, not me. I was supposed to be in Australia right now but that trip has been postponed. One of these years, I'll make it to the Dragon though.

I guess we just kept missing your call, minivern. I'll try to type up a list of what I have and send it to you and we can see if there is anything to trade or buy/sell if you want. I have quite a few from Rob (91Eunos) also and will include them in the list.

I was able to find MINI_Bee early in the festivities, then found out he was two cabins down from us. BTW, MINI_Bee, LOVE the horn!

I was beginning to wonder if I was going to find anyone else, but Smokey found me.

As said above, it was really great to put faces with names.

1) My motoring badges from Todds mods
2) A 'cooper' patch that I had won on ebay
3) A t-shirt I bought on sale from Swag Happy (along with a bonus GP t-shirt in small)
4) My Hammer and Coop air freshener from Bobbie
5) My Siku Coopers from Rob (91Eunos).

I love getting stuff in the mail!!!!

Wow...pretty quiet around here!

Here are my two latest additions!



I LOVE the detail on the Hot Wheels! Plus they seem so sturdy and well-built (just like the real thing)!

I have an Orange Cab on the way from Turcicus and got a Yellow/Checkered Cooper at AMVIV.

Seems like there is only one I don't have: the Red Cabrio.

Y'all have some of these? My best price was the Indi (?) Blue/White (on the left): $13 on eBay.

Yep, some of us are recovering from Dragon expenses.

Nice models. I have the Hot Wheels 1:18 Hot Orange Cabrio. A nice model, and my first diecast Hot Orange MINI. The only thing that would make it perfect is if it had the same wheels as your blue MINI, then it would match Gromit.

Do I see a wheel trade in the works?
