For well over a century, collectors have been thrilled by the workmanship, design and sheer fun of tinplate toys. With most older toys no longer suitable for children, due to sharp edges and unsuitable paint, tin toys continue to fascinate and (for some at least) rise in value. This site provides an entry route to a world of collecting that will entertain and amuse for many years to come.

Most of the toys offered here are new stock, in current production somewhere around the world. Many are modern versions of old classics, others are simply new designs. Also offered are a selection of second-hand toys, some classic, some hard to find and some merely well-used.

Enjoy your visit to the Tinplate Toy web site. Suggestions for links are welcome - no promises, but if I can I will.

Happy toy hunting!!
