Mettoy

Mettoy (the named derived from Metal Toys) was established in 1934 by Philip Ullmann and Arthur Katz in Northampton.  The original Mettoy models were produced in tinplate and were fitted with a clockwork mechanism.  In 1956, Mettoy launched their own range of small, detailed diecast models to rival the popular Dinky toys - and thus the Corgi brand was born.

With this range Corgi goes back to its roots of tinplate models.  We invite you to take a trip down memory lane with us, with a series of releases focusing on the two most iconic London vehicles - the Routemaster bus and Austin FX4 Taxi.  Each model features wind-up mechanisms and working features.  If you are a tourist, sightseer, nostalgic toy lover or fan of all things London then this is the range for you!
