Thanks everyone for the insights.
Apologies if I am missing something, but surely for any toys to be considered true MIMP they would have to be designed by MEG?
My memory is a little foggy, but IIRC the original MIMP were made by MEG and released by Matchbox, then later made by MEG and released by Tyco after they bought Matchbox.
I thought Cromy was just the foreign equivalent of Matchbox/Tyco? So if Cromy was making these without the input of MEG, surely they can't be considered true MIMP, even if they licensed the brand name.
Thoughts?
