Inevitably, they would ask, &#8220;So, how many do you have?&#8221; It&#8217;s a recurring question from many enthusiasts, ever since we started our collection. It makes me smile.<\/div>\n<div>\u00a0<\/div>\n<div>For many collectors, the value of a collection is measured by the number of models it contains. It seems to me that this is a narrow view of collecting. Recently, I received photos of an Italian collector&#8217;s collection. I couldn&#8217;t help but smile with admiration: we weren&#8217;t talking about quantity, barely three hundred models, but about quality.<\/div>\n<div>\u00a0<\/div>\n<div>The person had amassed the best colors and variations from several Italian manufacturers. It wasn&#8217;t everything, far from it, but only beautiful pieces, tastefully arranged. I made sure to congratulate him. But how could one possibly claim to have everything? First, you&#8217;d have to know everything that was produced, which is impossible. Besides, where do you draw the line when it comes to variations?<\/div>\n<div>\u00a0<\/div>\n<div>Mr. Gougeon has pushed the boundaries of Dinky Toys France. He can easily quantify his collection. It&#8217;s a way of collecting that I would describe as philatelic. He finds pleasure in trying to gather as many variations as possible within a limited framework, in this case, Dinky Toys France.<\/div>\n<div>\u00a0<\/div>\n<div>Personally, I like the idea of \u200b\u200binfinity.<\/div>\n<div>\u00a0<\/div>\n<div>As a child, at school, I remember being unsettled when the teacher explained to us, at the time of the space race, that we were just a grain of dust lost in the universe. I remember his amused yet reassuring tone. The guiding principle behind my collection of miniature cars is to trace the history of miniature car manufacturing from its origins, from industrial production through promotional models and handcrafted pieces\u2026<\/div>\n<div>\u00a0<\/div>\n<div>I do encounter limitations: financial, spatial, temporal\u2026like everyone else. This notion of the infinite variety of production is evident in the models for sale this week.<\/div>\n<div>\u00a0<\/div>\n<div>The selection delighted me. For example, we have an original and majestic Albion tanker truck from Jimson. This unique vehicle is designed for transporting bulk flour. Majestic, it is reproduced at approximately 1\/42 scale. I have a soft spot for this product, inspired by the one produced by Budgie, which is reproduced at approximately 1\/60 scale, therefore quite small.<\/div>\n<div>\u00a0<\/div>\n<div>I appreciate this type of toy, now rehabilitated among enthusiasts. Thirty years ago, few of us were particularly impressed by this type of product.<\/div>\n<div>\u00a0<\/div>\n<div>Its vibrant livery is a bonus.<\/div>\n\t<div id=\"stack-3810518170\" class=\"stack stack-row justify-start items-stretch\">\n\t\t\n\n\t<div class=\"box has-hover   has-hover box-text-bottom\" >\n\n\t\t<div class=\"box-image\" style=\"width:57%;\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"\" >\n\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" src=\"https:\/\/universautojaune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Jimson-Albion-camion-Bulk-Flour-105.jpg\" class=\"attachment- size-\" alt=\"Jimson - Albion camion Bulk Flour 105\" srcset=\"https:\/\/universautojaune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Jimson-Albion-camion-Bulk-Flour-105.jpg 800w, https:\/\/universautojaune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Jimson-Albion-camion-Bulk-Flour-105-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/universautojaune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Jimson-Albion-camion-Bulk-Flour-105-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<div class=\"box-text text-center\" >\n\t\t\t<div class=\"box-text-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\n<h4>mod\u00e8le en vente cette semaine : Jimson &#8211; Albion camion Bulk Flour 105<\/h4>\n\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\n\t\t\n<style>\n#stack-3810518170 > * {\n  --stack-gap: 0rem;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n<div>Let&#8217;s stay within the British market with this beautiful Morris station wagon, made of vinyl and reproduced in 1\/24 scale by Tudor Rose.<\/div>\n<div>\u00a0<\/div>\n<div>I like to occasionally venture off the beaten path and acquire a miniature reproduced at a larger or smaller scale than 1\/43.<\/div>\n<div>\u00a0<\/div>\n<div>So, a beautiful 1\/24 or 1\/87 scale miniature might be among my acquisitions.

Throughout my forty-year professional career, I listened to my clients. This allowed me, among other things, to see emerging trends and better anticipate them.<\/div>\n<div>\u00a0<\/div>\n<div>I thought about this when I saw the Volvo F89 and the promotional Ford D800 for Irma Kaffe from Tekno Denmark. I remember a small batch that was for sale in Copenhagen in the 1990s.<\/div>\n<div>\u00a0<\/div>\n<div>The market seemed saturated.<\/div>\n<div>\u00a0<\/div>\n<div>Yet, this model has a unique story. It was produced for Irma and distributed exclusively in this Danish grocery chain. Tekno specially designed an ingenious plastic cover system that slides and lifts up. About twenty years ago, a prototype based on a Volvo N88, with a van body painted in Irma&#8217;s colors, resurfaced on the market.

I quickly distanced myself from this comic strip, for which, I admit, I have no great affinity.<\/div>\n\t<div id=\"stack-1212354117\" class=\"stack stack-row justify-start items-stretch\">\n\t\t\n\n\t<div class=\"box has-hover   has-hover box-text-bottom\" >\n\n\t\t<div class=\"box-image\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"\" >\n\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" src=\"https:\/\/universautojaune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Politoys-Porsche-912-527.jpg\" class=\"attachment- size-\" alt=\"Politoys - Porsche 912 527\" srcset=\"https:\/\/universautojaune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Politoys-Porsche-912-527.jpg 800w, https:\/\/universautojaune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Politoys-Porsche-912-527-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/universautojaune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Politoys-Porsche-912-527-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<div class=\"box-text text-center\" >\n\t\t\t<div class=\"box-text-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\n<h4>mod\u00e8le en vente cette semaine : Politoys &#8211; Porsche 912 527<\/h4>\n\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t<div class=\"box has-hover   has-hover box-text-bottom\" >\n\n\t\t<div class=\"box-image\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"\" >\n\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" src=\"https:\/\/universautojaune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Politoys-Alfa-Romeo-Giulia-Canguro-529.jpg\" class=\"attachment- size-\" alt=\"Politoys - Alfa Romeo Giulia Canguro 529\" srcset=\"https:\/\/universautojaune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Politoys-Alfa-Romeo-Giulia-Canguro-529.jpg 800w, https:\/\/universautojaune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Politoys-Alfa-Romeo-Giulia-Canguro-529-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/universautojaune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Politoys-Alfa-Romeo-Giulia-Canguro-529-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<div class=\"box-text text-center\" >\n\t\t\t<div class=\"box-text-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\n<h4>mod\u00e8le en vente cette semaine : Politoys &#8211; Alfa Romeo Giulia Canguro 529<\/h4>\n\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t<div class=\"box has-hover   has-hover box-text-bottom\" >\n\n\t\t<div class=\"box-image\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"\" >\n\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" src=\"https:\/\/universautojaune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Politoys-Mercedes-230-SL-503.jpg\" class=\"attachment- size-\" alt=\"Politoys - Mercedes 230 SL 503\" srcset=\"https:\/\/universautojaune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Politoys-Mercedes-230-SL-503.jpg 800w, https:\/\/universautojaune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Politoys-Mercedes-230-SL-503-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/universautojaune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Politoys-Mercedes-230-SL-503-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<div class=\"box-text text-center\" >\n\t\t\t<div class=\"box-text-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\n<h4>mod\u00e8le en vente cette semaine : Politoys &#8211; Mercedes 230 SL 503<\/h4>\n\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\n\t\t\n<style>\n#stack-1212354117 > * {\n  --stack-gap: 0rem;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n<div class=\"text-center\"><div class=\"is-divider divider clearfix\" style=\"max-width:400px;height:10px;background-color:rgb(0, 0, 0);\"><\/div><\/div>\n\n\t<div id=\"gap-91720487\" class=\"gap-element clearfix\" style=\"display:block; height:auto;\">\n\t\t\n<style>\n#gap-91720487 {\n  padding-top: 30px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\n\t<div id=\"gap-1319160788\" class=\"gap-element clearfix\" style=\"display:block; height:auto;\">\n\t\t\n<style>\n#gap-1319160788 {\n  padding-top: 30px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\n\t<div id=\"gap-1607002708\" class=\"gap-element clearfix\" style=\"display:block; height:auto;\">\n\t\t\n<style>\n#gap-1607002708 {\n  padding-top: 30px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\n<div class=\"container section-title-container\" ><h3 class=\"section-title section-title-bold-center\"><b><\/b><span class=\"section-title-main\" style=\"font-size:144%;color:rgb(55, 52, 208);\">My favorites are these three beautiful JRD<\/span><b><\/b><\/h3><\/div>\n\n<div>Three Citro\u00ebns.<\/div>\n<div>\u00a0<\/div>\n<div>As with the Politoys models described above, the boxes are rare.

They associated it with the idea of \u200b\u200ba long and arduous task. I must admit, for my part, that I take a certain pleasure in picking up the models and putting them back in their boxes. Inevitably, they would ask, &#8220;So, how many do you actually have?&#8221; It&#8217;s a recurring question from many enthusiasts, and it&#8217;s been like that since we started our collection. It makes me smile. For many collectors, the value of a collection is measured by the number of models it contains. It seems to me that this is a narrow view of collecting. Recently, I received photos of an Italian collector&#8217;s collection. I couldn&#8217;t help but smile with admiration: we weren&#8217;t talking about quantity, barely three hundred models, but about quality. The person had amassed the best colors and variations from several Italian manufacturers. It wasn&#8217;t everything, far from it, but only beautiful pieces, tastefully arranged. I made sure to congratulate him. But how could one possibly claim to have everything? First, you&#8217;d have to know everything that was produced, which is impossible. Besides, where do you draw the line when it comes to variations? Mr. Gougeon has pushed the boundaries with Dinky Toys France. He can easily quantify his collection. It&#8217;s a way of collecting that I would call philatelic. He finds pleasure in trying to gather as many variations as possible within a limited framework, in this case, Dinky Toys France. For my part, I like the idea of \u200b\u200binfinity. As a child, at school, I remember being taken aback when the teacher explained to us, at the time of the space race, that we were just a grain of dust lost in the universe. I remember his amused but also reassuring tone. The guiding principle behind my collection of miniature cars is to trace the history of miniature car manufacturing from its origins, from industrial production through promotional models and handcrafted pieces. I do encounter limitations: financial, spatial, temporal\u2014like everyone else. This notion of infinite variety in production is evident in the models for sale this week. The selection has therefore delighted me. For example, we have an original and majestic Albion tanker truck from Jimson. This unique vehicle is designed for transporting bulk flour. Majestic, it is reproduced at approximately 1\/42 scale. I have a soft spot for this product, inspired by the one produced by Budgie, which is reproduced at approximately 1\/60 scale, hence its smaller size. I appreciate this type of toy, now rehabilitated among enthusiasts. Thirty years ago, few of us were particularly moved by this kind of product. Its vibrant livery is a definite plus. Let&#8217;s stay within the British market with this beautiful Morris station wagon, made of vinyl and reproduced in 1\/24 scale by Tudor Rose. I like to occasionally venture off the beaten path and acquire a miniature reproduced at a larger or smaller scale than 1\/43. Thus, a beautiful 1\/24 or even 1\/87 scale model can be among my acquisitions. It&#8217;s a matter of personal taste. This Morris is beautifully crafted, and I appreciate its unusual canary yellow color. Let&#8217;s remain in Great Britain with this rare Caterpillar D9 from Spot On. What a magnificent piece! The machine, imposing in reality, is reproduced in 1\/42 scale. It&#8217;s worth noting that a large number of construction vehicles are reproduced at scales ranging from 1\/50 to 1\/60. In a Spot On collection, this vehicle is a benchmark. It has always been rare. Let&#8217;s stay with construction vehicles. This week we have a Dinky Toys Euclid truck that deserves some discussion. I&#8217;ve created nine variations of this truck, which, in English Dinky Toys, is our Berliet GLR tipper truck\u2026 it remained in the catalog for a very long time, and therefore saw many variations: glazing, crank type (with or without a thumb), wheel mounting (convex or reverse-mounted), wheel color (yellow, khaki green, or red), and finally, decoration. Towards the end of production, it even changed its name to Terex. The one offered here is from the very beginning. It lacks glazing and, more importantly, features black decoration on the front corner of the tipper. The logo would later evolve, and the colors red and white would appear. Finally, to place alongside the Caterpillar, we also have a Blaw Knox bulldozer produced in Liverpool by Dinky Toys. Collectors have long neglected this type of machine. I only realized this a long time ago.

They associated it with the idea of \u200b\u200ba long and arduous task. I must admit, for my part, that I take a certain pleasure in picking up the models and putting them back in their boxes. Inevitably, they would ask, &quot;So, how many do you actually have?&quot; It&#039;s a recurring question from many enthusiasts, and it&#039;s been like that since we started our collection. It makes me smile. For many collectors, the value of a collection is measured by the number of models it contains. It seems to me that this is a narrow view of collecting. Recently, I received photos of an Italian collector&#039;s collection. I couldn&#039;t help but smile with admiration: we weren&#039;t talking about quantity, barely three hundred models, but about quality. The person had amassed the best colors and variations from several Italian manufacturers. It wasn&#039;t everything, far from it, but only beautiful pieces, tastefully arranged. I made sure to congratulate him. But how could one possibly claim to have everything? First, you&#039;d have to know everything that was produced, which is impossible. Besides, where do you draw the line when it comes to variations? Mr. Gougeon has pushed the boundaries with Dinky Toys France. He can easily quantify his collection. It&#039;s a way of collecting that I would call philatelic. He finds pleasure in trying to gather as many variations as possible within a limited framework, in this case, Dinky Toys France. For my part, I like the idea of \u200b\u200binfinity. As a child, at school, I remember being taken aback when the teacher explained to us, at the time of the space race, that we were just a grain of dust lost in the universe. I remember his amused but also reassuring tone. The guiding principle behind my collection of miniature cars is to trace the history of miniature car manufacturing from its origins, from industrial production through promotional models and handcrafted pieces. I do encounter limitations: financial, spatial, temporal\u2014like everyone else. This notion of infinite variety in production is evident in the models for sale this week. The selection has therefore delighted me. For example, we have an original and majestic Albion tanker truck from Jimson. This unique vehicle is designed for transporting bulk flour. Majestic, it is reproduced at approximately 1\/42 scale. I have a soft spot for this product, inspired by the one produced by Budgie, which is reproduced at approximately 1\/60 scale, hence its smaller size. I appreciate this type of toy, now rehabilitated among enthusiasts. Thirty years ago, few of us were particularly moved by this kind of product. Its vibrant livery is a definite plus.

Towards the end of production, it even changed its name to Terex. The one offered here is from the very beginning. It lacks glazing and, more importantly, features black decoration on the front corner of the tipper. The logo would later evolve, and the colors red and white would appear. Finally, to place alongside the Caterpillar, we also have a Blaw Knox bulldozer produced in Liverpool by Dinky Toys. Collectors have long neglected this type of machine. I only realized this a long time ago.

They associated it with the idea of \u200b\u200ba long and arduous task. I must admit, for my part, that I take a certain pleasure in picking up the models and putting them back in their boxes. Inevitably, they would ask, \"So, how many do you actually have?\" It's a recurring question from many enthusiasts, and it's been like that since we started our collection. It makes me smile. For many collectors, the value of a collection is measured by the number of models it contains. It seems to me that this is a narrow view of collecting. Recently, I received photos of an Italian collector's collection. I couldn't help but smile with admiration: we weren't talking about quantity, barely three hundred models, but about quality. The person had amassed the best colors and variations from several Italian manufacturers. It wasn't everything, far from it, but only beautiful pieces, tastefully arranged. I made sure to congratulate him. But how could one possibly claim to have everything? First, you'd have to know everything that was produced, which is impossible. Besides, where do you draw the line when it comes to variations? Mr. Gougeon has pushed the boundaries with Dinky Toys France. He can easily quantify his collection. It's a way of collecting that I would call philatelic. He finds pleasure in trying to gather as many variations as possible within a limited framework, in this case, Dinky Toys France. For my part, I like the idea of \u200b\u200binfinity. As a child, at school, I remember being taken aback when the teacher explained to us, at the time of the space race, that we were just a grain of dust lost in the universe. I remember his amused but also reassuring tone. The guiding principle behind my collection of miniature cars is to trace the history of miniature car manufacturing from its origins, from industrial production through promotional models and handcrafted pieces. I do encounter limitations: financial, spatial, temporal\u2014like everyone else. This notion of infinite variety in production is evident in the models for sale this week. The selection has therefore delighted me. For example, we have an original and majestic Albion tanker truck from Jimson. This unique vehicle is designed for transporting bulk flour. Majestic, it is reproduced at approximately 1\/42 scale. I have a soft spot for this product, inspired by the one produced by Budgie, which is reproduced at approximately 1\/60 scale, hence its smaller size. I appreciate this type of toy, now rehabilitated among enthusiasts. Thirty years ago, few of us were particularly moved by this kind of product. Its vibrant livery is a definite plus. Let's stay within the British market with this beautiful Morris station wagon, made of vinyl and reproduced in 1\/24 scale by Tudor Rose. I like to occasionally venture off the beaten path and acquire a miniature reproduced at a larger or smaller scale than 1\/43. Thus, a beautiful 1\/24 or even 1\/87 scale model can be among my acquisitions. It's a matter of personal taste. This Morris is beautifully crafted, and I appreciate its unusual canary yellow color. Let's remain in Great Britain with this rare Caterpillar D9 from Spot On. What a magnificent piece! The machine, imposing in reality, is reproduced in 1\/42 scale. It's worth noting that a large number of construction vehicles are reproduced at scales ranging from 1\/50 to 1\/60. In a Spot On collection, this vehicle is a benchmark. It has always been rare.
