Here’s Santa (and baby reindeer) on a Honda Metropolitan on this big pennant. It measures approximately 40″ x 28″, is double sided polyester and is just $15.97 at Lowe’s.

A Rare Bit O’Swag:
Smurfs on Modern Scooters
As appeared recently on eBay, these little guys look like they could have been toys in a fast food meal. I gotta say those helmets look really uncomfortable.
A Rare Bit O’Swag:
Scooter Puzzle Keychain
Rallys and Checkers are a fast food restaurant chain and this was a toy giveaway from one of their kid’s meals. Must be fairly recent as the scooter is a Honda Metropolitan!
A Rare Bit O’Swag:
Garfield & Odie Scooter & Sidecar Ornament
Technically this is a McDonald’s Happy Meal Toy that’s been converted into a Christmas ornament but I think it’s a lovely idea.
A Rare Bit O’Swag:
Cindy Bear on Scooter for $1!
Cindy Bear is a Hanna-Barbera cartoon character and is Yogi Bear’s Southern Belle girlfriend. This is a toy from a 1991 McDonalds Happy Meal toy and measures 2 7/8″ tall and has a (ahem) friction motor ! I can’t even imagine any of the Happy Meal toys coming out today having anything so cool. Or maybe I’m just being a grumpy ol’ stick in the mud. Anyhoo, they’ve taken down the link to see her boyfriend steal and then terrorize the park on a scooter in the cartoon “Scooter Looter” but more intrepid folks will be able to find it and watch it somehow.

“Disco Pizza” Delivery Paper Model!
Not sure who sent me this awesome paper model (please step forward!) but here you go. It’s from a Japanese site. For other paper models we’ve featured at ScooterSwag, click here.
This Week’s Rare Bit O’Swag:
1980s Lindsey Motor Scooter Toy
Here’s a bit of rare swag you can own for $75.77. “Lindsey” was Sears’ own answer to Barbie. So if your doll measures 11.5″ she can ride this scooter. It’s friction powered and apparently from another planet as well because the only two-wheeled vehicle I’ve ever seen remotely like this would be in the blaxploitation movie “Darktown Strutters” which I’ve included a link to below.

This Week’s Rare Bit O’Swag:
Go Bot Scooter
Oh look! Another Honda scooter. (Alex – are you paying attention? ; ) This is a little robot that turns into a scooter. Which I think is so much cooler than turning into a Freightliner truck like the more well-known Transformers. To see a video of this toy in action, click here.

This Week’s Rare Bit O’Swag:
“Charmy Rider” Toy Scooter
It’s the equivalent of a very cool Barcalounger on wheels! I have received some comments from the Honda crowd that there are not enough posts for them and so right back at you Elitists. ; )
