News from the GreenLight camp is a new license agreement with Toyota. What does that mean for us, cheap and cheerful, budget-friendly replicas featuring the Toyota marque… When will we see the new assortment, no word at this time provided but you can suggest future models by contacting GreenLight now. The official press release is shown below.
We are thrilled to announce that GreenLight Collectibles has secured a new licensing agreement with Toyota.
As this is our first time ever holding the Toyota license, we will have plenty of new tooling for you all in 2025. Got a suggestion? Please leave any and all ideas in the comments below.
We look forward to sharing more details and showcasing new products soon. Thank you for your continued support as we embark on this exciting new chapter.
Interesting! Nice to see a company (any company for that matter) venture out and obtaining licenses from companies that they normally don’t work with. In this case, a company that works with primarily American car manufacturers has obtained licensing for a Japanese car company! Hopefully they venture out even more and go into European cars too.
And please Greenlight, give us a 1:18 version of Marty McFly’s 1985 Toyota SR5 4×4!! Please please please!!
1:18
New Land Cruiser 250
1970 Land Cruiser FJ55
2024 New Tacoma TRD
2024 New 4Runner
Although I’m not exactly thrilled with Greenlight’s quality, I would like to see a 1:18 model of the current Toyota Prius, as no one else has made one!
Agreed! And a 2009 version would be welcome to me personally. And the one before that.
Would love to see MR2 AW11 and SW20, Celica ST185 and ST205, 1985 SR5 Xtra Cab in black, Yaris TS XP10, Sera, Supra A70, IQ.
Definitely onboard with the 1993 & 1994 WRC Celicas. As long as they are fully opening 1/18 and have working flip-up headlights
I would love to see the following Toyota cars and trucks in 1:18:
Toyota Sequoia XK60 in white
Toyota Sera in any color (a very cool coupe with butterfly doors)
Toyota RAV4 1st generation 3-Door hardtop (the car that started the compact crossover craze)
Toyota Hilux N50 in red (the truck immortalized by Top Gear as indestructible)
Knowing Greenlight’s past history with 1:18 cars (tends to produce cars for from the 1960’s to late 1980’s, with a specific bias towards cars that appear in famous movies or TV shows), I think many requesting more modern cars (myself included) will be disappointed.
We would be lucky to get a 1980’s Toyota truck (Back to The Future). Perhaps a 1980’s Celica Supra can be in the cards as well. Maybe a 1970’s Celica? Sadly, I wouldn’t expect beyond that, Heck, we would be lucky just to get that!
As for 1:64 scale, I think this is where we could see the modern day Tacoma’s, Supra’s, Tundra’s, etc.might see lots of stuff from Toyota’s golden years (1990’s) as well.
