MINI Japan snowglobes.

Hi,

I know this is a long shot, but does anyone have any of the MINI Japan Snowglobes that fit in the front drinks holders for sale, or know where I might be able to buy them from?

I suspect they were only a limited run, and highly sort after so expensive, especially as I would need them shipping to Australia

I know there were at least 6 different designs I am interested in any or all of the designs.



Thanks Rob

One item that is unique is the MINI tissue box.

Update.
Found some part number (very hard to find anything on these, but I found it ) after digging around and it looks like they were Japan Market only and are not available anymore.








If you are looking for anything else let me know.


Hopefully some owners might have one of these left over from 2012.

Thanks

Thanks for looking

You are welcome, some of these parts are almost impossible to find. The Halloween one is really funny. The MINI has a ghost costume, which is very cool.



Good luck .

Yes, they are very cool. These are NLA in Japan as they were from 2012.

Thanks

I see these dated 2013 on the Japan site, but I guess the functionality of my iPad is not allowing me to access it.

Yea, they were air fresheners also. Just limited production, think they showed up in late 2011 for 2012 catalog in Japan. looks like they light up on certain ones.

Very cool , unique item from MINI.

Yep, they are NLA, but a cool product for the Japan market.
