Greenlight 1:43

Many 1:43 Greenlight models look like they are from PCT Industries Owners of Ixo/Ist etc and makers of models under contract for part works White box etc. But not seen any official confirmation. However giveaway for me is the odd Greenlight made in Bangladesh and as far as I know only PCT has a production unit there

You are right. It looks like PCT is behind most diecast on the market today.

Thanks gents. So Motorcity Classics is a sub brand from Greenlight?

It could be but I think it is just another company that contracted out to PCT or IXO to make this...

Coke product. In fact one US website even lists it as an IXO product.

If it is Greenlight, then they have changed their marketing strategy and have created another separate brand entirely.
