About the Talbot-Lago T150 C-SS Figoni & Falaschi Teardrop Dark Bordeaux Metallic CMC 1:18

TL;DR: CMC's 1:18 diecast Talbot-Lago T150 C-SS in dark bordeaux metallic reproduces Figoni & Falaschi's iconic Teardrop coachwork, with opening doors and hood over a finished engine bay. Used model; the box shows traces of storage, casting itself intact. A design landmark from pre-war France.

Few pre-war coachbuilt cars carry the sculptural presence of the Talbot-Lago Teardrop, its flowing fenders and enclosed rear wheels reflecting a coachbuilding philosophy that treated the automobile as rolling sculpture rather than pure transportation.

Diecast Craftsmanship on Sculptural Bodywork

The Teardrop's swept, compound-curved surfaces are exactly the kind of shape that punishes an imprecise casting, and this model's metal body holds those flowing lines cleanly, with the dark bordeaux metallic finish showing genuine depth under direct light rather than a flat approximation. The doors and hood open on hinges built into the shell, exposing an engine bay finished to the same standard as the visible exterior. Handling the model, the weight confirms metal construction rather than a lighter composite build. This is a used example, so expect ordinary handling marks, and the box shows traces of storage; the casting itself remains sound.

Figoni & Falaschi's Coachbuilding Legacy

Giuseppe Figoni and Ovidio Falaschi built their reputation on flowing, aerodynamically inspired coachwork through the 1930s, and their Teardrop designs for Talbot-Lago remain among the most recognized examples of French Art Deco automotive styling. The enclosed rear wheel arches and unbroken fender lines were as much a statement of design ambition as an engineering solution, distinguishing these cars sharply from the boxier competition and touring cars of the same period.

Positioning a Design Icon on the Shelf

At roughly 25cm, this Talbot-Lago's flowing proportions stand out strongly against angular period rivals, making it a natural centerpiece for a pre-war design or coachbuilding theme rather than a strictly motorsport-focused shelf. Because the doors and hood open, pose the model with a panel raised occasionally to reveal the engine detail. Keep it out of direct sunlight to preserve the metallic finish, and dust the compound-curved bodywork gently since flat surfaces show settled dust more readily than textured ones.
