    Majorette is a french bread of toys, usually little cars for little boys !

    In France, we can find Majorette everywhere ;-)

    OK. Found it in old store.... It was covered in dust and the quality didn't seem to be the best but I had been looking for an F40. Thanks for the info!

    If anyone knows where I can buy these in bulk (say 50-100) I would love the lead...

    Always wanted to have a few in the car to give to enthusiastic kids...

    That is awesome. I guess everyone can take a punt at how many Ferrari owners I met as a kid were complete turds. Have only ever met 2 people with Ferrari's that were also really appreciative of what it was like to be a smaller person looking in.

    I haven't seen anywhere selling a particular model in bulk, most places stocking Hot-Wheels etc get them in 'mixed' boxes, and I don't think I can help out with F40s. Maybe had it been a 333SP or a 599, but haven't seen yours pressed for a while.

    What I would suggest though is getting a good stencil style image of the car and have some stickers or magnets made. Buisness card magnet has the plus of being more durable in small hands, can be cleaned - and you'll probably find the small cost worth it's weight in gold when in 20 years time a new Ferrari owner posts to this board showing a picture of their F40 magnet.

    Might want to keep your eyes on ebay for the Hot Wheels F40's I dunno how good of a chance you'd have finding that many tho since they haven't made a new one in quite a few years.
