VintageToy is a Hong Kong based independent dealer specialising in genuine vintage & antique toys — tin robots, die-cast classics, dolls, building sets, board games and the pop-culture icons that made childhood magical from the 1950s through the early 2000s.
Every piece in our catalogue has been hand-selected: sourced from estate sales, private collections, retired toy stores and trusted auctions across Asia, Europe and North America. We never buy in bulk from anonymous lots and we never list blind — each toy is examined, tested where possible, graded and photographed honestly before it reaches our shop.
Why Collectors Trust Us
- Authenticity first. Every item is verified against manufacturer marks, date codes and reference materials. Reproductions and re-issues are never sold as originals.
- Honest condition grading. We grade against a clear, published standard so you know exactly what you are buying.
- Careful shipping. Each toy is packed by hand — reinforced boxes, acid-free tissue and full insurance on request.
- Collector to collector. We are enthusiasts first and dealers second. If you have a question about a piece, ask us — we love to talk toys.
Our Story
VintageToy began with a single shelf of wind-up tin toys rescued from a closing shop in Mong Kok. What started as a personal collection quickly became an obsession with the craftsmanship of the pre-plastic era — and a realisation that great toys deserved to be cared for, documented and passed on to the next generation of collectors.
Today we are proud to serve collectors in Hong Kong and around the world, helping both first-time buyers and seasoned veterans find that one special piece they have been searching for.
