Gran Toros
Mattel teamed up with Italian maker Mebetoys to sell a 1:43 scale line of models with Hot Wheels style. Mebetoys had been making these detailed gems for several years already and the quality was high. They were advertised and sold between 1970 and 1973 in the US. We only have a few of them so far, but will continue to add them to the hoard as more become available! They continued to be marketed in Europe for a few more years, and eventually the Mattel/Hot Wheels label was dropped.
We sold several of our Gran Toros ten years ago and really regret it, so slowly we have been bringing some back into the hoard. This page is not a great representation, honestly, but we will add to it as more cars arrive. There is a wonderful website for these beautiful cars! http://www.grantoros.com We really recommend it as it is exhaustive and detailed.
