Avants’ The Toy Box: Cars and Miniatures at Seattle Auto Show
The Toy Box treats the miniature as part of the subject, not just a souvenir: each full-size car is paired with its small counterpart. The format links the cars on display to the collecting culture that inspired the exhibit.
A collection organized around the cars people remember
Avants says The Toy Box takes its cue from collecting and trading cars, and from imagining what it would be like to drive them. Its 2026 Avants Collection pairs each full-size vehicle with a miniature counterpart, bringing those two scales of car enthusiasm together.
The preview spans poster cars, motorsport legends, tuner favorites and a few unexpected finds. Avants describes the collection as limited-edition, but its public description gives categories rather than a car-by-car roster.

One car gets an oversized collectible package
A car from DirtFish Rally School will be shown inside a life-size collectible package. Avants has not identified its make or model, so visitors should not plan around seeing a particular DirtFish vehicle.
