Just thought I would let everyone know that there is a MINI Magic 8 Ball on Ebay.

It should be interesting to see how high this one goes!

Yeppers - spotted this earlier today. I too will be interested to see what it sells for - especially since it doesn't say anything about having a box and it sounds like it may not work all the time...

Gasp, that's like keeping your MINI in the garage, or trailering it everywhere!
No really, the glue holding it in the paper requires tearing it out. That's why I got 3.

MUSCLE CAR LITE. MC². Issue #1. Winter, 2005. (page 6)

Thanks for the info James! I just subscribed to that magazine a couple of weeks ago, so hopefully I will get it soon

Which ad is it?

Hi Everyone - Happy New Year! Hope you all had a great holiday! So, I have been looking for Metropolis magazine everywhere and I finally found it over the weekend! I was in Orlando for New Year's Eve and I checked out the Virgin Megastore at Downtown Disney and they had 3 issues of the December Metropolis! So I am now the owner of two IMAG-A-MINI ads! (At $6 an issue, I decided two would be sufficient)

Hi all! Nothing new to report, unfortunately. (But I did get some more cool stuff from Germany.)

Gee James! I quickly scrolled through the messages to get your comment and... still no new ads!!!! I'm disappointed that the new ad agency has not put anything much out and MINIUSA has not even run old ads- How can we be excited about ads and marketing if there hasn't been anything to be excited about?

I did head over to the MINIUSA site and although they have a new ID program going on,it doesn't seem like much has changed over there for awhile either. Again, very disappointing!

I guess I still have my binders and the libraryofmotoring.info to review for the creativity that I have been missing and hopefully something new will appear soon!!!

Available real soon

I received notice today of two new MINIs from AutoArt. They should be very good quality. A red one and a blue one. Here's the link:

Hi Donna! I've added a few more German MINI items to my collection, but haven't found any new ads lately. I'm still looking.

OK...so it's not new but sort of.... The ad with the guy losing his pants and holding on to the grab bar is in the latest issue of RS. It is pages 14 and 15 of the Feb 9,2006 issue with Kanye West on the cover. Because this is not an insert ,it is in both the newstand and subscription issues-

And I agree... the new ad agency better have the WOW effect when they do put out something !!
