The Scalextric brand was officially announced, to much acclaim, at the 1957 Harrogate International Toyfair and has since become a household name throughout the world. The inventor of Scalextric, Bertram 'Fred' Francis, had the foresight and engineering excellence to create a model car racing system that has endured over many generations and brought the unique Scalextric racing experience to millions of homes.
The Maserati 250F, along with the Ferrari 375, were the first Scalextric cars to be released in 1957. In celebration of the remarkable Scalextric heritage, both special cars have been faithfully reproduced; each features a unique tinplate body to represent the original production methods of the 1950s.
