Benbros, a vintage British toy brand that has tingled the imaginations of both children and adults alike. Best known for their die-cast miniature models, Benbros covers a variety of sectors including classic cars, farm equipment, and heraldic figures. Let the magic and nostalgia of their fine miniature models transport you back into the golden era of vintage toys. Be it their iconic T.V Series or Mighty Midgets line, each product illuminates a story of timeless craftsmanship and innocence, pushing the boundaries of miniature modeling and leaving an indelible mark in the toy industry.

The story of Benbros begins in London, England, in the year 1946. Brothers Jack and Nathan Bennenson, the creative minds behind this fascinating brand, started it with a dream of bringing joy to post-war Britain. Despite its modest beginnings, the brand quickly gained popularity and by the 195s, its "Mighty Midgets" miniature series became a household name. Benbros toys were not just playthings, but mini historical artifacts that echoed the era's popular culture. A fun fact to intrigue every collector: 'Mighty Midgets' got their name from the midget racing cars which were very popular during those times.
