Quality and Use of Equipment

We make every effort to ensure that the products advertised on our site are of a high quality. We are governed by the manufacturer’s ability to provide the quality of product. Some of the budget vehicles may have minor scratches or imperfections on the body. These imperfections can be caused during the moulding process and we can’t guarantee they won’t be present on some vehicles.

Toys Toys licensed vehicles are manufactured under supervision from the parent car companies engineers in Italy. The build quality, paintwork and electrics are of much higher standard and are noticeable better than the budget range and some other brands of Licensed vehicles.

We also stock other Licensed vehicles manufactured by Rastar and Dongma. These are again fully endorsed by the parent companies and carry the genuine badges on them. Rastar products are manufactured to a very high standard and are easy to assemble. This range enables you to own a licensed product with a painted finish but with the great features of the budget range including MP3 input, lights, remote control and more.
Dongma Licensed products although painted, may have small bodywork imperfections and require more assembly depending on the model. This is reflected in the price when compared a 12v Toys Toys product without any features that costs much more.
Each Licensed product includes the manufacturer name on the product page if you are unsure.

Waste Electrical and electronic Equipment Regulation 2006

Recycling electrical and electronic products – what you need to know

From 1 July 2007, new government regulations called the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Regulations came into force to encourage people to arrange collection or recycling of old electrical products, rather than throwing them away.

Q: Why should waste electrical goods be recycled?

A: Recycling unwanted electrical products is better for the environment. The amount of electrical waste, from hairdryers to washing machines, that is thrown away is increasing by around 5% each year. This means that in one year the amount of electrical waste created in the UK could fill Wembley Stadium 6 times!

Over 75% of waste electrical goods end up in landfill, where lead and other toxins contained in electrical goods can cause soil and water contamination. This can have a very harmful effect on the natural habitat, wildlife and also human health. When situated near populated areas these toxins can cause problems to communities as their water and soil is polluted.

Many of the electrical items that we throw away can be repaired or recycled. Recycling items helps to save natural resources and also reduces the environmental and health risks associated with sending waste electrical goods to landfill.

Q: How can I recycle my old electrical and electronic products?

A: We are offering free in store take back, so you are able to take your item to our store and we'll recycle your old Electrical items for free.

Q: How will I know whether the new products I buy can be recycled?

A: All new electrical and electronic products sold now carry the crossed out wheelie bin logo to help you identify which products are recyclable.

You do not need to have purchased new equipment to be able to recycle your old appliances.

Q: How long does it take from arrival at your depot to being back on the shelf as a new product?

A: This period of time taken to process the WEEE at the factory is relatively short (e.g. within 24 hours). However, there are a number of factors thereafter that affect how long it might take before the recycled steel for example is fully recycled into new steel and thereafter into the manufacturing process as part of a new product. A period of 2 to 3 months before this takes place is very much dependent on supply and demand.
