Millennium Force Model

I HATE Six Flags

Today in the ad section of the paper there was a little 11" by 8" by 3" model of MF. It was exactly the same as the real thing even with the the 2 staions. It even had a little train on the lift. They say it is $75. I do not think that is worth it because it is way too small. A cool little model though.

Yeah, I saw it too. Looked really nice, but I can't see paying 80 bucks for it.

I saw the ad today. The model is incredibly detailed; it's a porcelain model. The one thing I noticed, though (or maybe it was a problem with the print reproduction) is that they show the lagoon water as blue, when everybody who has been there knows that it is bright green! :)

I already sent my little order card out in the mail. I think this is one of those things I "need" to have.

I searched Danbury Mint's website, and I don't think this model is listed there. Not sure what to tell you as far as locating a picture, sorry.

Here's a picture Bluestreak (although the quality may be disgraceful.)

I certainly won't be buying one... but I mean I guess it's nice to know I could if I wanted to.

That's kinda neat. I have to assume there will be one in a gift shop before too long.

I hope they do have a few in the gift shops when available. I would like to buy one of these, but Danbury Mint will flood my mailbox for life with offers if I buy one from them!

Is there any website listed on the ad anywhere? Or is it a "Mail Order" only?

If no web address... what is the physical address and the Company's name?

You can find their mailing address on their website. I'm sure they won't mind sending you some information. http://www.danburymint.com

That looks awesome I dont know about $75. I would be ok with a pretty good looking plastic one for about $30.

In theory, all you would need to order without the order form is the item code from the flyer. You should then be able to order through the website.
