Piet Mondrian (Composition with Red Blue and Yellow) Annie


Andy Warhol (Pow!) Thomas & (Camouflage) Bertie


Andy Warhol's iconic (Marilyn Diptych) Diesel-10


Not sure if Victor is also an Andy Warhol's Camouflage but the cargo car is definitely a Keith Haring

I think the themes are Pop Art and Camoflage Smile good call

After months of silence, we are getting many Minis, hopefully they won't be scattered but looks like hunt will begin late '17 early '18. Usually we would get /1 of next year by November.

PS: did something happen to this site? The font looks small but menus and page buttons look huge.

some of those look great! like the new bag design too.


RE: thomas and friends mini series - Pablo392 - 10-30-2017

They all look really really good, I hope mass production colors are close to these because the vibrant popping colors with detailed lines were what drew us to collect these in the first place.
Also it doesn't look like we are getting the $100 single mini (aka Superstation James) with blinds anytime soon.. Sad

The weight and feel of the minis when playing with them is what attracted me. They had a substance to them that other toys don't. I'm pretty sure that ship has sailed, though....

I'll get those latest 3-packs added to the checklist in the next day or so. Thanks for the friendly reminder this weekend, mikedaws Smile

Have to agree that the MINIS just don't quite feel the same and lack the original appeal they had with the weights in them. Hoping the quality improves in the 2018 models.

Attn Canadian MINIS collectors. Canadian Tire is now carrying MINIS. They have 2017/2 for anyone looking. Good way to find Special Edition Clear Thomas.
Happy shopping


RE: thomas and friends mini series - Reivax - 11-04-2017

Holy cow. That's crazy. After all this time...Canadian tire? I'll be looking thank you. Fisher price has all but killed my desire to collect these things after completely ignoring this country the way they have.

Anyone have a good way to get 2017/1 minis still? (Hunting for Duck)
