Thanks Dave, hopefully they will recognize that the US market could use more parts. I would like to see them running some advertising here,there are a lot of people that don't even know what slot cars are!
I saw in another comment that you noted that American cars don’t sell well outside of America but do the American cars used in racing and films like, Bullit, and the Fast and Furious series sell there?
Wow, that interview was terrifying! She was across the buzzwords but one has to hope either her tenure is brief or her education is swift because zero understanding of the hobby on display there.
Lots of innovation from Scalextric, their micro line has no new cars you can buy. No dedicated digital sets that are starter digital sets and no new track or buildings. US cars sell well in the UK just look at Pioneer. I do agree very specific cars will only sell in home countries though. The Lego slot cars will sell well and if they could integrate Lego with Scalextric more that would offer great play value.
Great stuff, thanks Dave. Wait one minute, did he say “Adam” as brand Manager for Scalextric...is that North America or have I missed something with Simon in the last week or so? Cheers Darren
Thanks for a fun video Dave…cool to see the Toy Fair!
Someone tell Hornby the Pocher Lotus 72 airbox is back to front!

as i've mentioned all announcements for each year are made in January. so we don't know yet what 2024 might bring.
@@SlotCarNewsOfficial true, if anything big does come it would be very welcome with Carrera dropping the Nascar news that has been very welcome.
Interesting interview hmm, well done Dave 😅
thanks for watching

No Charlotte is the Jr. Brand manager, Simon is head of Brand. Adam is part of the sales team.

Hello
Out side of the U.S nobody is really interested in American cars, they sell poorly in England and Europe …
yes we know. And all the Euro stuff sells badly here, especially rally which is a waste of time for anyone to stock.
