NEW RELEASES |
You will be able to find here news about the latest Volvo scale models which have been announced or just been released. |
The Australian company Apex Replicas has published a couple of days ago the first pics of the first painted and decorated pre-production models of the Volvo S60 V8 Supercar. These scale models do not feature any opening parts. Such features would have resulted in way too high prices since the production batch of these models is pretty small. Their latest delivery schedule previews the models to arrive next June. You can place your order now with any of their authorized Apex Replicas stockists or online on their own website. The upcoming models include: Source & copyright : apexreplicas.com.au

This years International Toy Fair in Nürnberg opened his doors from January 28 to February 2, 2015. Nürnberg welcomes each year the world’s biggest toy fair. Other well known toy fairs are held in New York (US), Chicago (US), Hong-Kong (CN) & Shanghai (CN). The usual manufacturers which are already known to produce Volvo models have once again showed some news. I guess teh most awaited model will be the Volvo S60 STCC as well as the Volvo V60 Polestar. Motorart presented a couple of pre-preduction models of these two models. The Australian label Apex Replicas had announced the STCC version of the S60 already last year. see here Here are all the news I was told about in alphabetical order : BoS-Models This 1:18 scale Volvo PV445 Duett is for sure another great surprise and I bet many will be glad to add this model one day to their showcase. 1:18
Kalee electric ride one
This electric ride on is not a newly produced and/or announced model. I have presented this model back in 2012 click here. Minichamps Minichamps has a rather nice surprise by announcing a classic Volvo in 1:18 : the Volvo 240 GL. Minichamps will produce beside this newly tooled model a few longtime known 1:43 models in new colors. But what about release dates? How long are we already waiting for the fourth color of the Volvo P1800ES in 1:18? Way too many years in my eyes. 1:18
1:43
You can read Minichamps complete news-list by clicking here. Motorart Motorart has not completely stopped to offer Volvo cars. They have announced the Volvo V60 Polestar as well as the Volvo S60 STCC in various versions. The photos do show so far only pre-production models! 1:10
Neo Scale Models Neo Scale Models has presented only the Volvo 145 Polis which has already been manufactured and delivered to shops. But this doesn't mean anything. Their new company policy to announce models only when they are nearly finished and ready to be shipped to retailers and shops. 1:43
Norev Norev has presented three known models in new colors. It's quite a shame that their communication is very poor. 1:43
Oxford Diecast The British company Oxford Diecast has presented their first Volvo scale car. They have already a small number of modern Volvo trucks in their program. The first Volvo car they will offer is the classic 1st generation Volvo 245 estate. The model will be available in the very British scale of 1:76 which railroad modelers often call OO Gauge. The first color will be green. It might be in stock between April 2015 & June 2015. More color schemes will follow at a later date. 1:76 / OO Gauge
Premium-X Models / Ixo / PCT Collectibles The label Premium-X continues with presenting photos of already announced Volvo models. There are however a few new models in between those : Volvo S80 in dark green metallic, Volvo 440 in silver metallic, Volvo 740 'Polis Stockholm' (S) and a red Volvo 855R. There will be certainly more news since they will offer every Volvo which will be offered in the Volvo Collection by Editions Atlas in new colors and/or liveries. Ixo is in fact producing all the models for the Volvo Collection by Editions Atlas. 1:43
Triple9Collection The Dutch label Triple9Collection continues with presenting photos of already announced Volvo models. A couple new models will certainly be announced this year. 1:43

The Australian company Apex Replicas has published a couple of days ago the first pics of the pre-production model of the Volvo S60 V8 Supercar. Here is a quote from one of their emails addressed to me: We're doing the two GRM (Gary Rogers Motorsport) cars as they appeared at the Clipsal 500 race this year, in both scales – 1:18 and 1:43. The first pair should be out in the first quarter of 2015 (probably Scott McLaughlin's) as we release both scales together. They will be available through ourselves, GRM and the various retailers listed on our website. Here's a couple of photos that they put up a couple of days ago on our Facebook page and the accompanying text: "We just received some images through from the factory of the pattern sample for the Scott McLaughlin and Robert Dahlgren Volvo S60 V8 Supercars.

V8 Supercars official website : www.v8supercars.com.au Garry Roger Motosport official website : grmotorsport.com.au Polestar Racing official website : polestar.com/en-int/racing Many comments have been left regarding the P1900 by BoS-Models. There are the ones who just love that this models has been released in 1:18. And there is the other group who would have preferred to see another Volvo in 1:18. I don't have the model myself but I can tell from the photos that this resin model is gorgeous. The P1900 is of course not a 4x4 but I want to share the following photos with you. A Swedish Volvo fan took them out in the nature. See the result yourself. Courtesy of Jonas S.
I just saw an announcement on Facebook for a new Volvo scale model. This completely new project shows the Volvo S60 as V8 Supercar version. That car is running in Australia in the V8 Supercar championship. The scale model will be offered by the Australian company Apex Replicas. They will produce the car from the ongoing 2014 season in two different liveries. And the best thing is most certainly that they will offer each version as 1:43 as well as 1:18 scale model. An exact release date for these models is not yet known. The official price for the 1:43 models will be 70 $ ( 51 € ) and 150 $ ( 109 € ) for the 1:18 versions. I do not know if those models will be officially offered outside Australia. I will let you know a soon as I have received any info’s.

The Volvo P1900 is one of the few Volvo models not known by the grand public. It was however a very lovely design and it is a shame that production ceased after only 68 built cars. P1900 had, as did the Corvettes, a body made out of polyester. The body was reinforced with fiberglass and was mounted on a tubular-steel chassis. |
