Brand record
Walldorf
Walldorf Mini was a German model-car range associated with Walldorf, a mail-order business for model vehicles. The range included white-metal kits of postwar European passenger cars, among them a Volkswagen Beetle, Mercedes-Benz 170 V, Opel Rekord and Borgward coupé. The kits were sold around 1980 and remained available into the early 1990s. Walldorf’s own-brand models were later followed by Praliné, whose early range included several types previously issued as Walldorf Mini models.

With a passion for detail and realism, Walldorf quickly made its name in the toy industry. This brand, born from humble origins, became one of the most sought-after antique toy brands among toy collectors worldwide. Its toys are not merely playthings, but rather pieces of art that blend craftsmanship and creativity.
