Aston Martin Partners With Meccano on 1:8-Scale AMR25 Model Releasing August 2026

Overview

• The model is inspired by Aston Martin’s 2025 AMR25 and is positioned for experienced adult builders within the Meccano Pro range.
• Functional features include working steering, a fully operating engine, and a movable DRS for an engineering-focused build.
• Aston Martin describes the collaboration as a way to turn its race-car complexity into a hands-on fan experience and says it is Meccano’s first official partnership with an F1 team.
• Addo Play will manufacture and distribute the set, with a public showcase planned at the Nuremberg International Toy Fair later this month.
• The announcement comes as Aston Martin schedules a Feb. 9 reveal of its 2026 car, enters a new Honda power unit partnership, and is reported to have Adrian Newey as team principal.
