Hi and welcome to
Little City Toy Cars! This website is all about the collection of small scale diecast cars from the early 60's through today here at Little City Toy Cars. While we occasionally will have a picture of a car not in the collection (usually to illustrate something very rare),99.9% of the models you see here are in the collection. Our plan is to try and collate easily sorted pictures to help with collecting. One thing many websites seem to lack is pics with names, so this site is really trying to accomplish that while at the same to provide some education and maybe some fun facts. Currently we are featuring Hot Wheels, Matchbox, Tomica, Majorette and EFSI diecast models from the 1960's through the present, with an emphasis on vintage classics. As we load more images from the collection hoard, we will be adding models from Corgi Juniors, Impy/Lonestar, Jada, and Johnny Lightning, along with a bit of other weird stuff, such as classic Lego cars, Wiking, and Darda. We have recently slowed down with Zylmex, Playart, and Kidco cars, but we may take them back up as time goes by. Our blog is now currently active, and the new arrivals tab should see action every so often with additions. Since this site is currently on a free platform, we will be able to afford to keep it going, so expect tons of new stuff being added regularly. To navigate, simply click on the brand/car below to see more subsets of that brand. If we have more than one variation of that particular casting, you can click that car and they will come up on a separate page. Thanks for stopping by and enjoy! |

Been trying to get some holes filled in Acceleracers and World Race. Just got the Flathead Fury shown in the right from series two of the Acceleracers line.
Click the button or the picture to go to my new arrivals blog. We get better every day at reporting, but we still wish we posted more often. We typically get between 10 and 100 cars in weekly, so there is plenty of stuff to show off! |
The focus of the Hoard. We collect every era, along with almost anything to do with them, including track sets, multi packs, collector cases, you name it. What we do not collect are cars that are not available at retail, so no Hot Wheels Club exclusives. Otherwise, we love them all. We also have a ton of peripheral stuff that once we get some pics taken we will show off!

Another favorite, both the vintage cars from the 70's that were made in Japan and the modern ones appear in the hoard. Always adding more, but they are not cheap!
|
We seem to constantly be adding Matchbox cars to the hoard. We love Superfast from the seventies the most, but still collect at the store as much as we can, focusing on cars you can find in real life.

We started adding Majorette to the hoard very recently, in late 2015. Classic styles made in France in the 80's and 90's so far. We know they were made all the way back into the 60's, and they are currently being sold in Europe, but the sweet spot is the France made models from the 60's to the late 80's.

We love EFSI! Made in Holland, these are traditional old Ford Model T type cars make up the majority of what we collect. we have published some history on the main page...
