Modarri

Modarri is the brand name of a modular toy car line designed by David Silverglate and produced by ThoughtFull Toys of Santa Cruz, California.[1] The 1:32 scale toy cars consist of interchangeable parts such as treaded tires, front and rear suspensions, chassis, and seats. Each car can be broken down with a hex tool and re-assembled five ways, plus parts from different Modarri cars can be combined to create hybrids.

Three main car models are in the Modarrii lineup: The S1 Street Car, X1 Dirt Car and T1 Track Car. An additional car, the Modarri DIY Car, is a paint-it-yourself version of the S1 Street Car.[2]

Modarri cars were launched with Kickstarter assistance in 2013.[3] In 2014 the cars received the Popular Science award "Best Toy in Show" at the North American International Toy Fair and "Toy of the Year" from Creative Child magazine.[4][5]
