Nice! Wish the cabrio was orange instead of the hardtop, though.

I've got a request - every year I host an all-MINI slot car race (HO scale) and it's always a big favorite with the local slot car racers. Part of my tradition is that I have a trophy made up, using a small die-cast MINI built into the trophy. And I try to avoid re-using any colors (the first 4 were blue, red, black, and yellow).

(You can see my past trophies here: http://glenardenspeedway.grazfam.net/trophies.html )

So this year I'm searching for a British Racing Green MINI (1/64 scale). Anyone got one they can sell or trade? Wasn't there a BRG MINI in the Matchbox Superfast series, or maybe the "Best of British" series? It has to be a new MINI - not a classic Mini.

Thanks in advance!

Thanks Bobbie! I got an offer for a Maisto BRG, but if you have one of the Matchbox Superfast BRG's I think it would look better on the trophy. Doesn't have to be in a package, loose is fine...

I have a Matchbox Superfast Cooper S and a Johnny Lightning Cooper, let me know if you want it.

MINI Cooper Challenge R/C 1:20

Made by mjx r/c. Very good detail.

I found 3 of these at a local store for $20. They also have a couple of the larger (1:16?) versions for $45 or so. If you're interested, I would be willing to send this to you for cost + shipping + $5 handling fee. Let me know. I also have better photos if interested. Thx.

Finally got this one. I wish it was sold separately. At least the pack was on sale.

MINI Cooper S Remote Control Set

The founder of Sharper Image has a website named RichardSolo.com. Among other things are a set of two MINI Cooper S in 1:24 scale (about 6"x3"), with remote controllers for $39.95 (excluding batteries). I haven't bought them, but it looks like a pretty good deal for the price, from a reputable seller. Has anybody bought these?

See: http://richardsolo.com/index.asp?Pag...ROD&ProdID=276

Rick

I found and bought the white convertable toy you have pictured there. I even opened it up. I've been looking for those Dub City ones but I have not found one yet.. eventually it should turn up.

I did find a Maisto toy of my future next car in the same color that I want last week for 20.00, a Porsche Cayman S in blue.

1992 - is this the one you're looking for?

http://cgi.ebay.com/2008-MINI-COOPER-BLUE-WHITE-by-MAISTO-1-18-NIB_W0QQitemZ120416274689QQcmdZViewItemQQptZDiecas t_Vehicles?hash=item1c095e8901&_trksid=p3286.c0.m1 4&_trkparms=72%3A1205|66%3A4|65%3A12|39%3A1|240%3A 1318|301%3A0|293%3A2|294%3A200

It's the only blue/white Maisto 1/18th on eBay...although there is a 1/24 as well, but it looks more Electric Blue/Laser Blue-ish than Indi or Hyper...

I did skip through this thread quite a bit so I apologize if this question has already been answered.

Does anyone know of a White/White Cooper S model (by anyone, any size)? I've yet to find any all-whites that aren't Classics. Well, that is until I found the perfect one on eBay, bid, and forgot to wake up in time and was outbid by $1.00.

Thanks in advance!

Anybody have any idea where I can buy about 100 of the hotwheels-size Maisto Minis (or equivalent), preferably with a white or plain roof, reasonably cheap?
