Matchbox Mini Models

 

These are my Matchbox Mini's. There are more Mini's to view from Corgi and Dinky as well as other Matchbox cars.

Matchbox only made 2 Mini's in the 1-75 series. The Racing Mini to the left and the much-modified Mini-HaHa.

Much later there was a 'Matchbox-Dinky' model released along with the Models of Yesteryear.

Issued as # 14 the Mini Ha-Ha featured a prominent aeroplane engine and a helmeted driver poking through the roof. Several variants with and without the side 'target' stickers have been noted.
  The two red's in the Mini Ha-Ha's are markedly different although it is not as apparent in the photo here. The left one is a pinky bright red while the right one is a richer shade of bright red.
The Mini Racing Car model # 29 also wore the racing number 29. I have read that up to 12 variants can be found in combinations of body colour and the colour of the racing number. To my knowledge the only 'straight' Mini released by Matchbox.
