    Re: Holiday Shopping Time!

    By original color, could that include Salsa Red (the 2004 sort of "burgundy" red)? I did not see it in your inventory, but I'm hoping & asking anyway (sorry) while keeping my fingers crossed. Thanks!

    Sorry, Don, the WeePri red is much closer to the newer Barcelona than it is to the older Salsa. There is a Minichamps 1/43 version that has much better detail and is more of a burgundy colour, but it's about $50 and fairly rare.

    I have both the WeePri and the Minichamps models. The WeePri is very bright fire engine red. The Minichamps version is burgundy in color, but much darker than my Salsa Red Prius.

    For some unfathomable reason, the other five colours are the '04-'05 variety (except there is no green). The red appears to be closer to the '06. All of them are styled as are the '04-'05s, however. Go figure! (And thanks to Hyo & IsrAm for the clarification...or is that colourification?)

    Update for WeePri fans: I still have plenty in stock, but am in the middle of moving house so probably can't be doing any shipping for a while. I'll post back when I'm back up and running (i.e., when my computer, printer, cars, and shipping materials are all in the same place and accessible). :huh:

    C'mon people...where are all of you compassionate ones, just longing to adopt a WeePri (and its very own--slightly worse for the wear--WeePri driver)?

    Are you going to make me continue keeping them all locked up in the linen closet or what????

    My WeePri driver has been hotrodding a little... I think she wants to be a stunt driver ever since she saw an old Godzilla movie. I have to agree, their WeeStunts are pretty lame.

    looks like a bit of 'drifting,' in the true ricer tradition ...

    I have 3 Prius. All are the best colour there is, Silver!
    I have a Rufaro WeePrii 1:34 from Kinsmart. I'm not suposed to tell anyone I have it so please keep it quiet, and I have a Tomy 1:60 in a clear box over the original cardboard box which I have only had out of the box a few times, it has an opening hatch but not doors and looks like it is a touring model as it has a curved larger spoiler. Some detail is missing from this model like side mirrors and wipers, the wheels don't look authentic and the colour is a bit dark. The box has mainly Japanese writing on it. It is Tomy model number 106.
    Both models like my big Prius are pre 2006 as they have the black brake lights. Both cars have the rear badging but only the larger one has clear headlights, little one has painted headlights and the little one hasn't got the rear-most side window, the one in the C pillar.

    Please note...USPS is doing it again with the shipping rates. Priority mail minimum is going up to $4.80 on May 12.

    Have I got a deal for you...order before the end of May and I'll pay the whole twenty cents extra postage.

    How's that for an offer you can't refuse, just to entice all you fence-sitters to adopt one of the poor, poor orphan WeePrii, just sitting here pining for a good home. I'll even throw in a 12 step program for the driver!

    ATTENTION!

    I'm going to be moving in the next few weeks so the WeePris will be unavailable for the foreseeable future...If you want one, PLEASE contact me before mid-June!

    Thanks!
