WWW.DINKYTOY.COM

This Web page is devoted to Meccano DINKY TOYS die-cast models -- cars, trucks, planes, and more -- produced for children from the 1930s to around 1980. It's going to be updated with pictures of models, plus links to other Dinky sites on the Internet, making it the ideal home page for any Dinky collector.

In the meantime, you can click the links below to tour sites in the Dinky Toys Web ring. This is no longer being actively maintained, but will serve you as a starting-off point. These wonderful toys have inspired a bevy of interesting Web sites.

As this site's maintainer (e-mail jon at angel.org), I am often asked how much a particular Dinky is worth. If you are new to this, you can get some idea of relative values by looking at published price guides. However, these are usually only a starting point (and in some cases, are quite misleading). A better way is to check eBay Dinky auctions. Obviously, prices vary greatly according to condition and whether a model has its original box.

If you want to support this site, please check out my Dinky auctions on eBay. I also have other items for sale and am happy to accept your want lists by e-mail.
