Candylab Toys Issue 05 Awesome Wooden Toys for Contemporary Humans

STAYING SUSTAINABLE A 5,000-year-old toy, anyone? Ok, that's a bit dramatic, in the sense that it won't be a toy anymore, but the plastic used to make it will still be around. Plastic doesn't ever disappear, it just keeps breaking into smaller and smaller pieces, ending up in living organisms worldwide. Metals, rubber, textiles, and lots of other materials break down completely in nature after some decades. Not plastic. Did you know that more than HALF the plastic worldwide has been produced only since 2008?

So, unlike other toy brands around the world, we set ourselves apart in one major way: we are firmly in the camp believing that wood as a natural, renewable resource can be just as versatile as plastic when it comes to building engaging and attractive toys.

Our mission is to make wooden toys better than plastic ones, with zero compromises.

NEW ROADSIDE ATTRACTIONS, NOW IN CANDYCAR SCALE. To support our ever-growing fleet we created a perfect modular building block system: STAC™ It is a simple but endlessly adaptable idea: stackable, secure building blocks, combined with mid-century inspired accessories. As an all-wooden system, this makes it unique and perfectly adapted to our beloved CANDYCAR vehicles.

THE SHACKS

A well-known architectural concept makes its way now into toy form.

Take a pair of plain blocks, add a roof and a giant sign, and now the result far exceeds the sum of its parts: a playful roadside architectural icon.

MAGNETIC PARKING AND STORAGE

HOLDS UP TO 21 CANDYCARS | GRAVITY-PROOF UP TO 47º INCLINE

As cars grew in popularity, the need for a place to park them was growing bigger and bigger. Parking became a problem & cities were looking for a solution to park as many cars in as little space as possible.

Multi-story buildings dedicated to protecting and storing cars were a must back in the 50s and 60s but are commonplace now!

History has a way of repeating itself, and that's why we developed our Magnetic Parking Garage. This fully functional, solid wooden garage comes with 21 parking spots that magnetically hold all your cars.

The best part? Free parking for life.

PARKING GARAGE

SKU: STC GAR

A new kind of truck: Carved of solid beech wood with a real metal roof rack, The Big Sur is our clearest nod yet at the bygone era of big, clumsy, and extremely charming vintage American Trucks. We built it to celebrate the adventure, excitement, and freedom to travel beyond the asphalt - created around an iconic truck born and perfected in the USA.

TRAVEL IN STYLE It took a lot of research to find the perfect colors for this model and we narrowed it down to the three colors you see now. A bright, vibrant tangerine, a tinted teal aqua blue, and the exuberant lime green. Each with a unique personality but equally eye-catching. What's your fave?

A VERSATILE VEHICLE A perfectly machined and engineered wooden toy, it requires eight distinct pieces of wood, five magnets, and lots of precision and flair to all come together.

The result is a toy that can play three different roles, with just imagination added in.
