Lego Mini Cooper 10242

If you buy it from lego.com.au (official Lego store) you will also get a free limited edition mini mini model (a small version of the mini).

I've ordered mine (couldn't resist). Shame it doesn't come in red!

I see it is still listed as a limit of one per customer though, that must be frustrating the ebay trolls :grin:

The little car is cool, 7yr old put it together yesterday and was happy to find out that it fits in his large lego city helicopter cargo bay.... for a little car it still has 59 pieces

Bought mine! They must be experiencing high load, I've yet to receive the order confirmation email.

Anybody ever painted lego bricks? It'd be sweet to match my Blue Rover.

I see.

Yeah I'd like to paint mine red! it can be done with dye apparently but would only work with light colours I'd imagine (as in dye white bricks to red) but not green bricks to another colour as it's probably too dark

You could order the parts separate in the color you want using the pick a brick option if you really want to build a different color, it would be expensive though........
