АНУ-ын сүлжээ дэлгүүрийн 1:64 хэмжээст, гэрэлтдэг загвар 99 ам.долларын үнэтэй байна.
Техасын Кэти хот дахь Buc-ee’s дэлгүүрт худалдаалагдаж буй загварыг худалдан авагч TikTok-т үзүүлжээ. Гуравдагч талын TexasSnax борлуулагч уг бүтээгдэхүүнийг 195.95 ам.доллараар санал болгож байна.
Загвар нь дэлгүүрийн шар, улаан гадна төрх, гэрэлтдэг цонх, дээврийн лого, замын хажуугийн тэмдэг болон аварга минжний дүрсийг дуурайлган хийжээ. Гурван ширхэг AA зайгаар ажилладаг бөгөөд зайг тусад нь худалдаална; загварын өргөн 18, гүн 8, өндөр 7 инч.
Buc-ee’s 1982 онд Техаст анхны дэлгүүрээ нээснээс хойш авто аяллын зогсоол болон өргөжиж, Техасаас гадна Аризона, Арканзас зэрэг мужид салбараа нээжээ. Хубер-Хайтс дахь Охайо мужийн анхны салбар энэ дөрөвдүгээр сард нээгдсэн бөгөөд мини загварын үнэ өндөр байна гэж зарим хэрэглэгч шүүмжилсэн бол бусад нь баярын чимэглэлдээ оруулах санаагаа хуваалцжээ. Мөн зарим хэрэглэгч тус брэндийн барааны тэмдгийн маргаан, шүүхийн нэхэмжлэлтэй холбоотойгоор хошигносон байна.

Beaver Nuggets sold separately.
Buc-ee’s, the beloved beaver-themed convenience store chain, is selling a miniature version of its famous travel centers for $99, although online listings are set even higher.
A shopper at the Buc-ee’s in Katy, Texas, showed off the miniature in a TikTok this week, revealing its $99 price tag. The same item, reportedly purchased new straight off the shelf, is also listed by third-party reseller TexasSnax for $195.95.
The Roadside America Classic Collectible Buc-ee’s is a 1:64-scale miniature that recreates the store’s signature yellow-and-red exterior, complete with glowing windows, a rooftop logo, roadside sign and the giant beaver statue found outside its travel centers. It requires three AA batteries to light up, which are sold separately.

Measuring 18 inches wide, 8 inches deep and 7 inches tall, the model is designed to fit on a shelf alongside other collectibles, or even a few Hot Wheels.
Since opening its first Texas store in 1982, Buc-ee’s has grown from a convenience store into a road-trip destination, drawing fans with its massive locations, famously clean bathrooms, barbecue, fudge, jerky and signature Beaver Nuggets. Its popularity extends to its merchandise, with shoppers eager to buy everything from branded clothing to plush beaver toys.
That popularity has helped fuel Buc-ee’s expansion beyond Texas, as the company brings its oversized travel centers to more states across the country. Its first Ohio location opened in Huber Heights this April, while the chain has also expanded into states including Arizona and Arkansas.

Still, the miniature store’s hefty price tag has left some social media users questioning whether the collectible is worth the money.
“Why tf (sic) is it 100? At least make it 70,” one TikTok commenter wrote.
Others seized on the miniature store as an opportunity to poke fun at Buc-ee’s history of trademark disputes and lawsuits against businesses with similar branding.

“Will it sue all the other shops in my Christmas village?” one commenter joked.
“If I own a store, do I get to sue anyone with a beaver in their logo?” another wrote.
One user dismissed the collectible as “peak consumerism,” while others were already imagining how to incorporate the tiny travel center into their holiday decorations.
“Then I would put fake snow on it, and it’s going with my Walmart, Target, Home Depot Christmas village lol,” one fan wrote. “Time to add it to my whole Christmas village,” another said.
