Radio Controlled Minis for the Olympic Hammer

Updated



Toy Minis will not be replacing the hammer at the 2012 Olympics, but they will be used to ferry hammers, javelins, discuses and shots from the field to the throwing area, saving time during competition.

Three "Mini Minis" will be deployed and will be operated by Games Makers assigned and trained for this duty. The cars are roughly a quarter scale of the full-sized car and carry the athletic equipment situated inside, accessible through the adapted sunroof. The cars are all blue and feature the same Games livery as the 'full-size' official fleet vehicles.
