About the Mercedes W116 Black MCG 1:18

TL;DR: MCG's 1:18 diecast Mercedes-Benz W116 reproduces the sedan that introduced the S-Class name in 1972, finished in Black. Diecast construction gives the car's upright, formal proportions real substance, anchoring the start of a naming convention Mercedes still uses today.

Every Mercedes S-Class since 1972 traces back to the W116, the model that first carried the "Sonderklasse" designation officially. MCG's diecast replica marks that starting point.

MCG's Diecast Weight for a Formal, Upright Sedan

The W116's design is defined by vertical surfaces and a tall greenhouse rather than the swept-back proportions later S-Class generations would adopt, and that formality rewards diecast's inherent heft. MCG specializes in subjects other manufacturers often skip, and a first-generation S-Class in Black is exactly the kind of understated luxury sedan that rewards patient collectors rather than impulse buyers. The metal body settles with real weight when lifted, appropriate for a car built to project substance rather than sportiness, and the flat, upright grille and quad headlights are simple enough shapes to render with genuine accuracy in diecast rather than requiring resin's finer line work.

The Car That Made "S-Class" an Official Name

Before the W116, Mercedes' large luxury sedans carried model numbers without a unifying nameplate. The W116, introduced in 1972, was the first Mercedes officially designated S-Class, replacing the W108/W109 generation and establishing a naming convention the brand has used continuously since. That makes the W116 a genuine origin point rather than simply an old Mercedes, the sedan where a still-current model family actually began.

For any collection tracing the S-Class through its generations, the W116 has to sit at the front of the row. Everything that follows, in scale form as in the real cars, builds on what started here.
