DoNotInsertIntoMouth Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 It seems the Mini Cooper promo is only available with the purchase of the Mini Cooper. Does anyone know/guess if it will be available with any Lego purchase come Aug 1 This is what I was wondering. I want one, but I am not sure I want to buy the minicooper yet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CNH1974 Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 I got the impression that the mini mini was the august promo. So come 1st aug it will be widely available. But for now it's just available for VIPs. I too don't want to invest in the big mini yet, but I may get one to build. The price is not high enough on eBay to warrant a flip, unless ,you have lots of points saved to get one cheap. Question for August, is what do I get to get the mini mini. Now mini modulars has gone, what other exclusive sets are close to the Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M4x18 Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 That is a reasonable price. It's reasonable right now as it's only available for VIPs, I'm aiming at 2 for that price once it becomes widely available.

@rtisan Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Awesome! Really nothing to fault Lego on, this little guy looks great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheOrcKing Posted July 20, 2014 Author Share Posted July 20, 2014 Awesome! Really nothing to fault Lego on, this little guy looks great.Only thing that seems odd is the mudguards and two panels are not in dark green to match the rest of the vehicle. Otherwise it looks great. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boliramirez Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 So this minii bag would be available in August? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good call! I honestly kind of like the difference though haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheOrcKing Posted July 28, 2014 Author Share Posted July 28, 2014 Good call! I honestly kind of like the difference though haha.I believe someone on Brickset pointed out that neither piece has been made in dark green yet therefore Lego went with common black. The model is still well done. I just like finding or getting new pieces and colors. It's kind of my thing. Haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ciglione Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 Is there a limit on the mini mini? I made two orders the other day, both qualifying for the mini mini. But on one order the mini mini was cancelled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattyman Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 Yes. Generally one per household. It's in the small print Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ciglione Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 Ok.... than the other one will get cancelled too probably. Cause I got one already last month with the big mini. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ctoddlight Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 Ok.... than the other one will get cancelled too probably. Cause I got one already last month with the big mini. I ordered two big MINIs in July and got a little MINI with each. I waited until I received the first to order the second, but the whole thing seems pretty random so I am not sure if that had any impact.

CNH1974 Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 I never have had a problem. Got 4 VW campers last year with 4 different orders. Some online, some at the store. I have placed my first order, one Ecto & one 42001 mini off roader. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exciter1 Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 All I know is I'm returning whatever I orders where I don't get mini Minis. Is that right, wrong, or indifferent? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenxxx Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 So I've got a few of these polybags, and I don't much care for them... figured I'd do the quick flip and count it as a "discount" off my real purchase. They're now going about $17.50 on ebay (- fees - shipping = about $13 in my pocket). Hardly worth the effort. Do you think they'll do better in December? Or should I just dump them now?

It could go either way. The polybag may be in high demand during Christmas which would make the price go higher, but it may not. I would sell them now just to be safe. Polybags are usually worth the most when they are just released, especially the promos. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDarkness Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 My concern with this is the lack of clear identification that it is a licensed Mini product. No sticker and no identifying anywhere on the bag that it is. The mini Camper though did and had a VW licence and logo on the bag.
