This resin sculpture measures 6.5″ long and is really detailed. You almost expect to see an oil leak under this fenderlight! It’s $29.

Put the likeness of your favorite couple on a scooter figurine. From itsyou.qqminime.com…
It’s similar to this figurine I posted a while back.

I saw this picture on a poster in the window of an engraving shop in downtown Portland & it was too weird not to post. What is that bear/deer with a football jersey on his head doing? Is that supposed to be Cupid? Or has he come with a magical wrench to change their spark plug? We may never know.

Aleks H. came across the key chains at his local art supply store, Meininger’s in Denver. Alas, unless you want to order a gross of them and pay for shipping from the Netherlands, you may have a tough time finding them. Both the keychains and coin banks are made by the “Silly” company (silly.nl) and are featured on page 5 of their downloadable catalog. If anyone finds a US online source for these cuties, please let us know! (tips (at) scooterswag.com)

And thanks to Aleks for this cute find!

Here’s a new Rickshaw/Ape/Tuk Tuk/Scooter thingy in the Strawberry Shortcake line. It’s called the “Goodies to Go Scooter.” I don’t think it’s nearly as cute as a previous toy, but it’s still pretty darn cute. You have to admire the girl’s gumption to start a food cart business in this economy and oooh what a cute mod helmet. Available for $14.99 at ToysRUs.

I wish I knew more about the modeling craze that seems to feature a lot of scooters. I think the idea is that you can create your own action figure and of course that newly minted superhero has to have accessories. These little models come in a variety of colors and are $17.09 each. There is no size mentioned but the company is in California, so it should be easy enough to contact them.

Thanks to Julie G. for this unusual find!

Not sure what real-life scooter this odd scooter clock is supposed to resemble but after looking through some of my books, it’s not much crazier looking that scores of scooters that made appearances at dealer scooter shows in the 50s. (Swoon! Imagine being able to go back in a time machine to one of those!)

This little time machine is $33 and measures 1.75″ tall.

I really hope someone does a full-size scooter in all of these Rococo flourishes. This really is a neat toy. You just snap the vehicles and outfits onto the Bratz dolls — all in one fell swoop. Available at Target and other retailers.

Thanks to both our own Timmy T. and longtime Swagster Aleks H. for this find.

I wasn’t familiar with the Disney show “Higglytown Heroes” but this apparently is the “Pizza Guy” and “Wayne.” Alas, I couldn’t find any videos of this guy delivering pizza on YouTube or even any photos. Regardless, I think these guys look an awful like the Fisher Price Little People and I think Fisher Price should sue! ; ) In the meantime, pick up these set (which measures approximately 4″ high) for $12.99:

I’ve known a few brave folks who’ve ridden scooters in the snow. (People from Germany typically – see photo below from SIP Scooters – they’re kooky!)

But . . . if you want to play it completely safe, you can take an imaginary ride around in your Department 56 Snow Village.

This little set of scooters measure approximately 3″ X 1″ X 1.75″ and are $20. The Walter Dorwin Teague-ish garage I show them in front off is a retired piece but probably can be had with some searching on eBay.

Thanks to Julie G. for this great find!

This is not an authorized Lego accessory but more of a creation of some passionate “brick” modelers. I am not sure where you can find the riders or the headlight either but this link will at least set you on the right path. The scooter is $6 and comes in red, black, white, dark blue, medium blue, dark green, and yellow.
