Well... In Europe those toys cost double what they cost in China.

I'd love to see such a price war in Europe because traditional brands are making garbage quality cars with extremely expensive price tags, and Chinese brands are selling better quality cars (yet a generation or two behind the Chinese equivalent) with slightly lower price tags than the traditional brands (at best), but since people don't trust them, they aren't selling very well yet.
