That'd be an instant purchase, my favorite iPod was always the shuffle. I love small things. Wait, don't take that out of context.

Not sure what's funny about people missing the boat but I don't think it's out of the realm of possibilities that they make more as it's not in the discontinued section and several other mazes have or are being brought back.

Indeed, I think the words were if they can produce it they likely will.
I have only heard about retired ones and the red that was due to swapping manufacturers or equipment or something.
Never heard they lack the capability to do mini's anymore nor that they were ever stated to be a specific limited number myself

Re: What about having a Mini?
I believe the Minis were quite labour intensive to produce, so if they ever did materialise again I doubt they would be anywhere near the same cost they were previously.

Cost is not an issue if the quality is on par, and that seems to be why we are here

Re: What about having a Mini?
I'd also want to, not to rain on the parade, point out that the mini blues are no substitute for a real blue. They are what I would classify as a premium novelty. Might have just been mine but the tolerances were not at all akin to a real revomaze. I know how to solve the blue very well and it is a challenge to open these because of the size and the design of the pin. In 100% honesty I'd rather it came with a keychain insert vs the actual maze core. If they could be remade with ease and limited impact to other projects, It might be a cool thing to bring back at some point.

Re: What about having a Mini?
I have to agree with Chyron, I can open my blue all day long, still have never been able to open the mini.
