Objet : [urq] Audi Museum miniatures

A bit ago some one posted about Audi Design's recent installation in the
Munich museum.  For those not up on the very slow list traffic the last few
months, much of the info can be seen here
http://www.designboom.com/technology/audi-design-wall-installation-at-pinako
thek-der-moderne/   with plenty more info available at the touch of a Google
search.
Because I have not recently beaten my forehead flat against the wall, I
thought I might inquire, though not sure where, of the powers that be, if
any of these minis might be made available for semi public consumption, i.e.
us.  I figured since CAD CAM programs are made, and the tooling exists, why
not try and persuade Audi to expand the production run for the torch
carrying, knuckle busters among us.  While there has not been a lot, OK any,
support in the obsolete parts department I've never seen a complaint that
accused Audi of not knowing how to make a buck.
In that vein can we possibly gauge what sort of organic  interest there
might be from the list, and Heaven help me, possibly at what price point? 
 I'm pretty sure I'd faint to see what Audi wrote off as the cost for each
billet miniature and I doubt I'd consider even a fraction of that for one of
my own, but maybe a plastic one?  With the program these would also be
pretty easy to 3DP should we be able to get Audi of the mind.  So what say
you?
Mike
