Yes, enquiring minds want to know. Where did you get it?

By they way, are you sure you are old enough to drive? Or maybe that is a real mini and you are a giant.

I have that micro mini too. but I have the most fun with the 2 mini S that I got from toys R us. I upgraded them to the works by adding modified motors and tires. they come in Red with white top. Electric blue with white top and Dark silver with black just like mine.



the best part is they are fast with the modified motor also from Toys R us and handle really well so you can stage a race in the kitchen or on the driveway or in the garage. Be carful though in the kitchen you are liable to really annoy the wife. trust me I found out.

Got them all at Toys R Us the day before I placed my order for my MINI.

A few of mine:


I've got the 1/6th scale from Sam's last year.

That one is from Toy we Be, I think. Saw it there the other day.

OK, that's my two-year old. The MINI measures about a foot wide and two feet long.

I'm defintely going to look for those really tiny ones, so I can chase people around the house. The 1:6 version is too much of an outside toy for indoor family fun/harassment.

And Smokey4, that's an awesome collection!

SIZE MATTERS?

Took me weeks to model the little people. Thought the clay would never dry!

I believe the 1:6 scale MINI Cooper retails for $75-$80 at Toys R Us. I have seen a similar one sold at the Sharper Image stores with working lights, turn signals, horn...pretty cool.

I'll post some pics of my MINI collection later on.

Mine cost about $60.

Mine has working headlights, a horn, a chirping alarm, working brake lights, and turn signals. It's got three speeds, with three corresponding engine sound effects.

Cool! Let's see 'em!

Dude, that's an extremely life-like representation of Allen Iverson.

I thought that was "Beetlejuice" from the "Howard Stern Show".
