Jean Graton and the Vaillante team
Jean Graton bases his work on rigorous documentation and an authentic passion for automobiles. From the 1950s, he understood that the car was becoming a central element of modern society and chose to make it the heroine of his stories.
The Vaillante team, led by Henri Vaillant and animated by his son Michel, represents French excellence in international motorsport competition. This patriotic approach, without being chauvinistic, highlights French know-how in a field dominated by foreign manufacturers. Graton thus creates a coherent universe where French technology competes with the world's best teams.

Frequently Asked Questions
How to understand the scales of miniatures?
Scale indicates the reduction ratio between the real car and the miniature. For example, at 1:43 scale, each centimeter on the miniature corresponds to 43 centimeters on the real vehicle.
Concretely, a 1/18 scale Ferrari model is approximately 25-30 cm long, while in 1/43 scale it measures approximately 10 cm.
What scales are available?
Our model cars are mainly offered in 1/43, 1/24, 1/18 and 1/87 (HO) scales. The scale is always indicated in the product sheet.
The smaller the second number, the larger the model car (e.g. 1/18 is larger than 1/43).
Does the model car come with protection?
Yes, each model car is systematically delivered in its protective box. This box preserves the collectible value and protects your model car from dust and shocks.
