Anybody else been sucked into Scalextric cars because of their MINI obsession? I sure have.

 

I already had a Carrera Set for my son. I then I caught the bug and bought The Italian Job MINIs made by Scalextric.

 

I was really surprised how many MINIs are available from various makers. The Scalextric cars (I have four MINIs now) are REALLY nice!.....expecially the ones that are exact replicas of John Cooper Challenge cars. Better than diecast, imo, 'cause you can drive 'em!!!

 

Oh Yes! Hook, line and sinker


I picked up the JC Challenge Set about a year ago and then picked up another Sport set, minus the cars and a few more bits and pieces. I'm still watching and looking at the 3 newest MINIs out; BroadOak, xNRG No 1 and another limited edition one made for a UK company called ModelZone

Here's a bad shot of what I've got:



And a shot of the latest layout my grandson and I set up. He was the reason we got the sets and cars in the fist place! By the way we're running dual power supplies/controller ports so we can get each others cars back on the track quicker.






I've got a few more close up pictures over on my gallery at Mini2

Anyone picked up and have pictures of the newest ones yet? I'd love to see some close up shots.
