Something a bit wacky...

I was down my local supermarket this evening and they had some hot wheels in, I've not bought any for a while but thought I should check for chases.  I didn't find any as far as I know, but I did pick up something a bit wacky, it is the boat out of the original Disney "Steamboat Mickey" cartoon, they've even made it in b&w, pretty nice as a little homage to the subject I thought.  I'm attaching a pic below, also a couple of pics of two loose 'N' scale wagons I picked up, I've added them purely to give you guys a view of how small these things are bearing in mind the boat is about the size of a normal hot wheels lol!!

Not wacky at all except for the fact that its a Hotwheels boat. In fact I am expecting this to arrive from China tomorrow...

Well that was my point really, that it was a wacky hot wheels product.  Do you want one if I happen to see another kicking around?!?

Thanks for the offer Nigel but because the boat itself doesn't show anything related to Steamboat Willie it just looks like a black and white steam boat to me. This a surprises me as just a little sticker or something would correct that. It doesn't look like. out of the package, anyone would recognize it was from the vintage Disney cartoon or am I missing something?.

Therefore Lego, for example, put the name on it.
