You'll have to be careful with stickers and so forth, we can't use the Daisy logo or Quant's signature as they're both copywrited items and unauthorised use for profit - like making stickers, T-Shirts etc - could well incur legal penalties, which I'm sure we want to avoid!

As for the photos of Monty, they're actually the property of Minimag who may well charge us royalties for using them.

It's a legal mine-field out there... we will have to be *very* careful not to tread on toes!

we can change the colours of the daisy and thats not copied the shape itslef isnt copied its the black white one that is,we can just change it,but im sure that dear old mary wont mind us promoting her good old car. i might write to her and ask lol
my dream is to interview her
if someone arranged that ID DIE!!!!!
well wer aloud to wear tshirts you can buy with her logo on like the one iv got so therefor we can i think,noone will mind i dont think if they do then werl speak straight to her :D

Try getting a straight answer or even a response from the Quant Co. on anything. It's like pulling teeth. Hen's teeth at that.

I was working on getting permission to repro one set of the Designer seat badges via them for about 2 years and gave up in the end as, regardless of the legitimacy of the request, they threw up brick walls at every turn and even tried blatantly ignoring me for a good while. In the end I sourced some 'near-identical' ones from somewhere... but my sources are classified for obvious reasons. :D

I re-iterate my earlier statement, we will have to be VERY careful.

If you'd like to try and contact Mary herself, then feel free... if you can find her!

Daisies yes, definitely.

Stripes, while in-keeping, I'd say no. They're a little too much for a sticker/logo. Maybe alternate black & white letters instead? Would make it easier to read too!

Also meant to ask you guys some stupid questions... :)

You know Im still new to minis - how do I make my heating work? I know its something to do with the stick that looks like the choke but has fire on it!! And also, the button with the pedal on... thats something to do with my brakes right? But what? Do I even need to know?

Finally, are you members of any clubs, BMC etc? Are there any that you could recommend?
