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 reproduces Figoni et Falaschi's Teardrop coachwork, finished here in dark bordeaux metallic. Doors and bonnet open onto hand-assembled interior and engine detail. The model is used, box showing storage marks, casting unaffected. A defining piece of pre-war Art Deco design.

Figoni et Falaschi built their reputation on flowing, aircraft-inspired bodywork, and the Teardrop coachwork on the Talbot-Lago T150 chassis remains one of the most recognisable results of that Parisian coachbuilding tradition.

Reproducing Teardrop Coachwork in Metal

The Teardrop's swooping fenders, enclosed rear wheel arches and low, curved roofline demand precision that a lesser casting would blur, and CMC's approach, separately fitted panels rather than a single stamped shell, keeps those compound curves sharp under direct light. The dark bordeaux metallic paint carries genuine depth over the metal body, showing the coachwork's contours the way a spotlight would on the real car at a concours. Opening the doors reveals an interior trimmed with period-correct detail, and the bonnet lifts to show the engine bay CMC builds into every T150 release. Handling the model, the weight confirms the multi-part metal construction, a build philosophy that favours faithful engineering over the razor-sharp shutlines a resin casting might achieve. This example is used, its box carrying traces of storage; the model itself remains unaffected.

A Design-Led Piece for a Coachbuilt Collection

This Talbot-Lago earns its place through design rather than race history, and it sits best among other coachbuilt classics from the same Art Deco period rather than lined up with competition liveries. At roughly 25cm, its low, flowing profile makes a striking contrast against boxier pre-war saloons on the same shelf. Collectors drawn to the design side of pre-war motoring will find this among the strongest statements CMC's catalogue offers.
