Greenlight is an American die-cast model car brand founded in 2003 in Indianapolis, Indiana, celebrated for its broad and imaginative catalogue of scale vehicles spanning multiple scales, themes, and licensing agreements. From Hollywood film and TV cars to muscle car classics, first responder vehicles, and officially licensed replicas, Greenlight offers something for every collector — regardless of their specific passion.
Greenlight was founded in 2003 with a vision to produce die-cast model cars that reflected American automotive culture in all its diversity. The brand quickly distinguished itself through aggressive licensing — securing official agreements with Hollywood studios, TV networks, law enforcement agencies, and automotive manufacturers. This allowed Greenlight to produce accurate, officially sanctioned replicas of vehicles from iconic films and TV shows, as well as authentic police, fire, and emergency service vehicles that appealed to a dedicated collector base.
Greenlight produces die-cast models across a range of scales, including 1:18, 1:24, 1:43, and 1:64. Their catalogue is organised into themed series — Hollywood series featuring cars from famous films, TV series cars, muscle car collections, vintage classics, and more. Notable licenses include vehicles from the Dukes of Hazzard, the A-Team, Fast and Furious, and numerous other pop culture icons. This combination of nostalgia, pop culture, and automotive passion makes Greenlight uniquely engaging.
Greenlight releases a high volume of new models throughout the year, ensuring there is always something new to discover. The brand's themed series and regular variants make it especially rewarding for dedicated collectors who follow specific lines. Limited editions and chase variants — available in exclusive colours or configurations — add excitement and collectibility to the range. With competitive pricing and accessible distribution, Greenlight is one of the most approachable brands in the collector market.
