Was going through photos looking for stuff to add to the database.
Saw this one for TINTOYS....

Where do they fit in the scheme of things?

Updated the title so that TINTOYS is one word (rather than Tin Toys) to reflect the brand rather than a type of toy

FWIW, we haven't gotten to Tin Toys yet (nor TinsToys, for that matter). If others have some Tin Toys (not to be confused with TinsToys) models they wish to include, here would be a place to start. Once we get enough we can open a board for them.

Okay.

Hope this is alright to do...

I decided to do some digging to learn more about this.
I found some links to Doug Breithaupts old site, which is no longer online, but can still be accessed via the Wayback Machine.
There were some articles by Kimmo Sahakangas.
For now I'm just posting a list of models, and I'll ask Kimmo if it's okay to reprint his articles...

There is no problem with providing Kimmo's ( my coauthor from our published books) old articles. Just make sure reference credit is given.
