its Hot Wheels "Final Run" issue in 2002. Today it is Corgi Rockets that have become most collectible, no doubt helped by their scarcity. However, the film and TV related models in the Husky range, such as the 1966 Batman series Batmobile, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, The Man from U.N.C.L.E.' 'Piranha' car and the James Bond Aston Martin (though the smaller car produced was a DB6, not the DB5 seen in the larger Corgi Toys range) have realised surprisingly high prices in recent years. In 2009, an original manufacturer's trade box of six Husky James Bond DB6s was sold on eBay for US$1,300, and in January 2010 a Corgi Rockets James Bond "On Her Majesty's Secret Service" four-car set was sold on eBay for £3600, making it the most valuable of all Corgi branded products. Today, the Corgi brand is owned by Hornby, and called Corgi International Limited. The company specializes in collectibles of various types including a range of 1/76 scale (00 scale) commercial vehicle models called Corgi Trackside. In about 2005 the Husky name appeared attached to diecast emergency and commercial vehicles related to the tourism industry in the UK. An FX-2 taxi, a police car, a fire truck, and an ambulance appeared in the series. The company was based in Leicester and appears unconnected to modern Corgi.
