What a brilliant idea kerr-san!!!

also, you'll definitely need to do another production run for all the big kids on here... myself included :mrgreen:

Hey Simon do you think you could make a batch for the Qld Mini Muster?

Name your price :)

They are super cool!

when is it and how many? I need to get permission from my wife to make a mess in the kitchen again :roll:

I took about 85 to Hay, and they all went, even the one my daughter had drawn on, though it was the last one, and might have vanished :lol:

I was asking $1 or $2 for them at Hay, mostly $2 for adults, and whatever the kids had in their hands - I had to paint a little sign saying $2 so I didn't have to ask for the money :oops: I'm a softie

I can make as many as are needed, but it takes a little bit of time... also each one has little imperfections like the line from the join in the mould, and the odd air bubble making the fuel filler caps, overriders, bits of bumper etc. disappear - but the kids don't care, and they are all unique :)

I just cast these two so you can have a close-up, these are about average, some better, some worse. As you can see they're not commercially viable, just fun. I might try to make a clubman too...

how about we do a "I want plaster minis" list? I'll give priority to anyone who wants them for a show'n'shine, just give me the dates, and how many travellers or sedans. I'll probably just ask for $1.50 each for bulk, maybe $2 each if you just want a couple.

iwannamini - 5 sedans 5 travellers?
kimini - ?/?
gafmo for Gannons (date?) - 15/15
Tombo for MATM? (date?) - ?/?
panthersteve - ?/?
Minifreak_brg67 - ?/?
mini_kirsten for QLD Mini Muster (date?) - ?/?

oh, and by the way.... click here

I've filled Kirsten's order (yet to be shipped), so Marcello's next unless someone needs them urgently for a show :D

clubmans have turned out OK, but not great. The mould didn't work very well so they end up with some little lumps and bumps on them

When you get round to getting the minis done for me I would be interested in the moke if you have designed one by then

Would you also pm me the cost of them plz so I can pay you for the lot
