NEW OLD MODELS FOUND

The tag says it all. It's all about older models which I have discovered only recently.

Volvo XC90 by Mica World

8/15/2016

0 Comments

 
The South Korean company Mica World has offered another livery of the Volvo XC90. This is the third model I have seen so far. This one is decorated as service car of the Korean Fire and Medical Service '119'. 119 is a direct-dial emergency number for fire brigade and ambulance service operated by the National Emergency Management Agency.
This diecast model has a push back engine. It's scale is 1:34. The EAN-13 barcode reads 8809485912615. I found sale prices ranging from US $19.90 up to US $27.90.
The 1:34 scale model features:
  • opening front side doors
  • push back engine
  • blue lights in the front radiator grill
  • working orange flashing light on roof
  • four different working sirens
  • emergency service logos on the side doors and the hood
  • packed in a window cardboard box

Previous Volvo models by Mica World:
  • Volvo XC90
  • Volvo XC90 Police car 'South Korea'

The printed info's on the box say that the scale of the Volvo is 1:35 while the bottom plate of the model reads 1:34.
The very same model of this Volvo XC90 has been offered by other companies and labels:
  • Hipo: various Polish and Czech liveries
  • KidsGlobe: plain color versions as well as various Polish, Czech and Dutch liveries
  • Teamsterz: UK liveries for the British market

A Dutch model collector has received yesterday the model of the Volvo XC90 Police car which you can see in the attached photos. This XC90 comes in the livery of a South Korean Police car. The scale model has been manufactured in China and it is distributed by a company called Mica World Co. Ltd. and based in Busan, South Korea. It seems that this is an officially licensed Volvo product from 2006. The diecast model has a push back engine. It's scale is 1:34. The EAN-13 barcode reads 8809173550112.

I have previously been showing another livery of the very same Volvo XC90 scale model. See here.

UPDATED - Volvo XC90 by Mica World

1/8/2012

This diecast Volvo XC90 comes decorated for the Korean Air and is produced in China for the South Korean company Mica World.
These Volvo cars are decorated as airport patrol cars.
I wasn't able so far to find out if the car really exist in this livery.
A few of these models were offered on a well known auction site for 17.99 $ including shipping from Korea or Japan
The 1:34 scale model has :
  • opening front side doors
  • blue lights in the front radiator grill
  • working orange flashing light on roof
  • four different working sirens
  • license plates : VOLVO XC90
  • 'Korean Air' logo on the hood and front side doors
XC90 ruby red pearl Volvo colour code 454
XC90 silver metallic Volvo colour code 426
XC90 magic blue pearl Volvo colour code 467
XC90 willlow green pearl Volvo colour code 471
But I have no proof so far that these models really exist.
More versions are listed on the backside of the packaging :
A few questions still remain :
  • do these versions exist for real
  • who knows more about the brand Mica World    (not found so far on the www)

This Volvo XC90 by Matchbox comes with a special gift inside a 'treasure box'.
If we can rely on the text written on the blister, we will most probably receive a tatoo.
