Toy Cars

Toy cars, why do they fascinate us so? Toy cars have been produced since the 1900s. As soon as the car was invented, there was a miniature version for a child to play with. Things have become much more serious since those innocent days.

The introduction of diecast car saw scalable accurate replicas become more than children’s toys; they became collector's items. The most common size for diecast toy cars today is 1:43. A car on this scale will typically be about five inches long. The longer toy cars tend to be aimed to adult collectors and 1:12 tend to be the largest and the most expensive and are only for the serious collector.

Toy cars range from the plastic toys for toddlers to exact scaled reproductions of supercars. The reproduced supercars have working doors and windows, intricately painted dashboards and carefully constructed engines. Whether you choose to race toy cars or just admire their intricate designs, they are always a satisfying investment.
