Thank you RR and Wspeed.
I found one that is similar on an ended auction.  It has a red LED and L.L. Bean on the other scale....so when it arrives I'll know if it is one of those.
:cheers: :popcorn:

Thanks all.
Day 4 - I bought the one shown below today.
I like MiniChamps (they're big Vagabonds to me  :D ) and this one caught my eye as I haven't seen a black scaled one.  Plus it seems it has an LED, so the Midnite version.
I thought it might be a scale switch, but then I can't see any reference to black cellidor w/LED in the SAKWiki.  But then maybe it isn't an LED version.  :think:

(Image removed from quote.)

Pretty sure that is a Midnite Minichamp, there is no place for tweezers and the shield is the light switch. I think the black ones had the red LED, but it could be white if it's newer. Good one!  :like:

That red shield was the first thing that caught my eye and made me think it does have an LED.  You're right, the one I did find had the red LED.  :cheers:

I think that's exactly what it is. I have a user just like that red LED/LL Bean. Nice to see such a clean copy.  I don't think I've seen a black scaled MMC with the newer, white lites.  I do know that there are some white lites in the old scale style without the swinging battery door.

Nice find either way!  :like:

Thank you kamakiri.  I was happy to find a MiniChamp that is different than any of my others.  :tu:  I think black with a red shield looks great.

Worst case scenario, head over to Def's get em before they go to Ebay thread.
I took your advice and for Day 5 I have coming from Canada:

Victorinox Tomo, red, NIB
Victorinox 125ths Anniversary SwissCard, NIB

This isn't the exact new Swiss Card that's coming, but I figured I should post a photo of one to keep up with the challenge.  :tu:

Nice one...you picked the only one that kinda tripped me trigger. That Swiss Card thread about a month ago almost did it, and then when I saws the 125 year even more so.  :facepalm:
