MINIMini Toys - Diecast/Models/RC *Caution Lots of photos*

Found some info on the stretch limo. The model is 1:43 by Spark Model. The item number is S0700. A search with some combination of Spark, S0700, "Mini XXL", and "1/43" might turn up shops with stock available.
The model is based on a 1:1.

Well that makes sense, since Sears bought out K-Mart, or became the senior partner or whatever. I've never heard of Sears Grand, but then again we still have K-Marts. Thanks for the info.
For those that asked if they're in any other stores, I had my gang out this weekend and the only place they found them was at K-Mart. No-Go at T-R-U, Walmart and Target

Last night I picked up a few of the Urban Metals (both colors) so if anyone needs them, I have 1 spare black and 2 spare purple ones. The card on the black one has some shelf wear/bending but no creases.
I wanted to post this that I ran across at a Walmart last night.
It didn't even come up in the system when they scanned it, and I eventually paid $10 for it.

i went hunting last night, and found a few urban metals at kmart. no luck finding minis anywhere else.
Might be because the area i was in is always hunted down for mini toys by a fellow club member
i think i'm up to 70 mini toys now? I bought a HUGE r/c mini from toys r us a year ago, and now they have a new bling version. I'm going to pick it up tonight. Since i take all my models to car shows, i have them boxed up most of the time... i might un pack them and take some photos tonight :smile:

Tit, the TRU here in the States have a new 1/6 scale RC MINI. Flame graphics, spinner wheels, "lambo" doors. US$80 and you can't use the charger that comes with it in Aus. It's the same size as the silver one in the middle of this pic.
On the wall are these
There are other walls and display surfaces with MINIs and Minis also.

Agro, I have a voltage converter at home 'cause I've got piles of 110V goodies at home...wouldn't like to drag it back in my luggage though!
Besides....we'll get it here sometime next decade...I'll just wait 'till then....
My collection isn't nearly as impressive....I only have about a dozen cars and the big one...
I took the big one to the ClubMINI NSW launch (next few pages in that thread have pics...it was at the Olympic Park in Homebush)....there were about 50 mini's there. The little car was getting driven around the carpark with many a mini nut chasing it...
Oh sorry, I had to add this one....the mini mini "parked"....

I have 5 auto-art models....4 of which are WRC cars....the detail on them is amazing.....my other is a CR/W JCW....
Autoart are the best scale models I've seen for accuracy....right down to the suade steering wheel and detailed fire extinguishers in the rally cars...
$25 is a bargain!

Nice find DD Love those AutoArt
But I believe this was the deal of the day
37 JL/HW/MB diecast cars! Additionally, this would be a good list to copy for those looking to build or fill their collection. Just with a quick look, the only thing missing is the 2002 #200 green w/tempo and lace wheels.

And nope I was just watching this one, not bidding. Wish I was!

In all honesty, I was going to bid on them, but got distracted watching the MINI vs. Porsche video

I ordered a pink Yat Ming too. :P

Put me down for one of those TH's if you find extra. When does the Kmart collector's day start up there? I hear of people that some how get shipping schedules and wait for the truck to arrive at night with their case numbers list in hand! That's over the top, at least to me.

It's the one from TRU with "lambo" doors :P although it says gullwing on the package.
Now if only Kmart would carry more than just the black
