Two More Diecast MINIs From Hot Wheels and Matchbox

The first up is the new Hot Wheels MINI Cooper Clubman Rally. This is the second in this series following a green version.







The next is a commemorative edition, 60th Anniversary Matchbox Austin Mini Cooper S. It comes in gold with a Union Jack roof. I saw this one on ebay, but I didn't expect to find any at my local store. Usually, they're gone before I get there.

New Matchbox Mini Cooper - 1964

New Release: Hot Wheels MINI Countryman Rally - in Green

There are some things you never grow out of, and collecting Hot Wheels is one of them. Since I'm such a MINI Cooper enthusiast, the only ones that I collect are MINI related (or BMW 2002s). Hot Wheels has a new casting for MINI. This time it's for their 2012 Countryman model. How could I resist it in the form and style of a rally car.

Here are some pics. I hope to see a few more colors and variations of this casting.

Starbucks Android App Glitch

The other morning, my Starbucks App started pinging like crazy. It stated that I earned 211 stars.

Obviously it was a glitch with the app or my phone (most likely my piece of crap phone). It cleared out as soon as I rebooted the app.

More Hot Wheels BMW 2002s

I've posted about Hot Wheels coming out with the BMW 2002 a few months back. They've since come out with a white version, and just recently, a green version. Here are the pics:





Here was the orange one posted earlier:
