Allow Me To Introduce Model Icons!

Today Model Icons confirmed 1:18 replicas of what is going to very probably be our most popular replica of 2010, the Jaguar Mk.II. It will be available in red (MI201001), green (MI201002) and white (MI201003). For those of you who don’t know Model Icons, it used to be called Jadi, but will now be releasing diecast models with a much higher level of detail. We saw the samples at Nuremberg and were very impressed.

Our video review of the 2010 Nuremberg Toy Fair also went live today. You can click here for Part 1 and here for Part 2. Enjoy!
