Corgi Models

History Of Corgi Models

Corgi Toys is a renowned brand of die-cast model vehicles created by the Mettoy Playcraft company in 1956. The company began its journey in Northampton, UK, and within a few years, became one of the world's prominent die-cast model manufacturers. The brand was first introduced as a competitor to the Dinky Toys, and the major highlight that set Corgi apart was the implementation of clear plastic windows, which were a novelty in the toy industry at the time. The initial success was followed by the production of iconic models that became collector’s favorites and won various toy awards. Over the decades, Corgi expanded its product offerings and embraced technological advancements, maintaining its reputation for quality and innovation in the die-cast model industry.
