I figured they were 1/18th. I'd like to build a replica of my car and a Showroom Stock race car from the Fujimi kits but both require x-Lites. Oh well.

Are you guys Gem hunters also Got any interest in hitting the Dragon while you're in town? It's not that far away.

Squirlz - It's 1:18th scale. I've only seen the x-lites on that scale and even then only on Dealer sold models (MINI part numbered cars). Now if you want 5-spoke, I've got plenty of those
That's why were going there, for the gems. I will let you know when we finalize everything and see if it works with your schedule. and we will let you know about the dragon also. I might finally get to drive it, just not when everyone else is there.

Ah, it's just a road

BTW, I went by and picked up your LY/W and found these 2, don't worry I picked up some extra ones. But check and see if you've got the Moss Green one already, I think it's a re-release from Motor Max.



Later!

You can't have them all because I have a lot of them.

Where did you find these? I REALLY want the bank! Can I contact the bank and get one, do you think?

All of them were eBay purchases. The Lincoln Mint one came with another car and ran under $8 each with shipping. The Kinsmart was $4 shipped and the bank was around $10. I've had it for a little bit and can't go that far back to find out the contact info for the seller, but I think contacting a branch of the Bank might just work, if they don't find out what a wacked bunch of grown-ups we are!

We were Cruising last month and found another surfboard style, but they wanted way too much money, at $21, for it.

Bobbie, I'll send you guys an email once I get a chance.

That bank has a small fleet of MC's detailed up like that - it's not just a promotional item. http://www.westchestercountybusiness...504wrop03.html

http://www.mahopacnationalbank.com/

http://www.gobanking-mnb.com/

info@mywelcomebanking.com

Since those banks cost them something to have made, they probably want you to topn an account or somethihng...

I know there's a few guys on NEMINI.org that have seen these cars driving around Westchester county (NY)...

I emailed them yesterday, mentioning that I live on the other side of the country, and offered to buy one. No response yet.

New Hotwheel hitting eBay!

Looks like an newer version of the crazy clown of a few years ago. It's a Morris with new style wheels and is number 165.

Fantastic! Went out this morning on the way home from work and the shelves were bare of new ones

I did managed to find 4 extra #12 MB Superfast in the DS/W - so if anyone needs one or 2 let me know.

I found a couple of these:



I've got 3 etra of the yellow ones, none of the green, if anyone wants one - these were super cheap $0.81 since the store was going OTB. Don't worry Bobbie - I've got a yellow one stashed away for you

These are hitting the shelf with the release of the movie - I understand it's Fiat 500 but the grandkids will love it. If you hold it just right and squint a lot, it looks just like the classic Mini

I'll take one, but I'll insist on paying you this time. Just let me know how much with shipping.

I just picked up 3 of these new HotWheels #165.

So refreshing to actually find a new MINI toy for a change!

I also just received a Treasure Hunt Morris Cooper that I got on an ebay auction that was poorly described such that others looking for it might not have found it. So thrilled to get it for 99cents!

Nothing quite as satisfying as taking that perfectly preserved mint package and ripping it open to release my prize into my greedy little hands! (I knew that would make some of you cringe!)

Good Job Yucca! and I love to watch people cringe when they see a limited edition car being ripped open. lol, I found a EB/W Johnny Lightning with French writing on the card on my way home from N. Carolina last week in a KB store.
