NEW RELEASES

You will be able to find here news about the latest Volvo scale models which have been announced or just been released.

Volvo P1900 by BoS-Models

6/11/2017

2 Comments

 
BoS-Models has announced end of Mai a H0 replica of the  Volvo P1900 Sport. The 1:87 scale model will be made out of resin model with no moving or opening parts. BoS-Models has released a photo of the P1900 finished in blue with white interior. I can't tell you if this photo  shows the final production model or a pre-production hand-sample. But you can be sure that BoS-Models will release further paint schemes in the future. A precise release date is not yet known. You will have to spent € 19.95 for being able to add it to your scale model collection.  You will be able to order it directly from ModelCarWorld's web-shop. I am personally looking forward to this model and I really hope that it will be a proper replica of the original car.

The P1900 is one of the few Volvo models not well known by the grand public. It was and still is a very lovely design and it is a shame that production ceased after only 68 built cars. The 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.

It was common knowledge among good informed Volvo collectors that BoS-Models has been working on an 1:18 scale version for a Volvo Amazon Estate model. The just released miniature is representing the Amazon Estate from model-year 1965. The rtr model is painted cream and features a red interior which results in a nice color combo which suits this replica quite well. This model is made out of resin and does not feature any opening parts. This is the first model offered by BoS-Models which does not come with a German license plate. You can buy a copy of this limited scale model for 119.95 € under item number BOS176 (Nr. 200850). This is a price increase of 20 € or 20% compared to the previous three Volvo models produced for and offered by BoS-Models. BoS stands for "Best of Show".

Volvo 144 by BoS-Models

9/11/2015

1 Comment

 
BoS-Models surprised certainly most of us when they released two days ago an 1:18 scale model of a Volvo 144. The new model comes in a typical paint scheme from the 1970's. The car is painted mustard yellow and features a brown interior. The mode comes with a German license plate for the city of HB  which stands for the Hanseatic city of Bremen ("Hansestadt Bremen"). This model is made out of resin and features plastic and metal detail parts. It has unfortunately no opening or working parts. You can get yourself a copy if you ready to spend 99.95 €. The item number is BOS042 (Nr. 194148).
I guess this won't be the last 1:18 Volvo model by this brand.

Volvo PV445 Duett by BoS-Models

7/3/2015

2 Comments

 
BoS-Models which is a label of the big German company modelcarworld.de has released the model of a Volvo PV445 Duett. What makes this rather special is the fact that it is a resin model in 1:18. Volvo's Duett has so far been popular among scale model manufacturers who offered most versions in 1:43 and 1:87 (H0). But any Duett in larger scales was until now just offered in tiny numbers by small producers who hand made them and offered them in rather confidential channels.

BoS-Models has chosen to reproduce model year 1956. This resin model comes in the well known and attractive paint scheme blue over light gray over blue. The bi colored interior consists of white and red seats. I guess more color versions will be released in the future.

This first release can be purchased under item number 193756 for 99.95 € plus shipping.
The above photos show the model as it has been presented on this years Toy Fair in Nürnberg.

BoS-Models has released two 1:18 scale Volvo's prior to this one. The first was the Volvo 240 estate and the second the Volvo P1900 Sports. All three models are produced in China but I can't tell you by which manufacturer.

It is fitted with a round blue beacon on the roof as well as two 'DDR' flags above the headlamps. The shortcut BoS stands for 'Best of Show'.

Some history:

The Volvo 264 TE was built from 1974 to 1983. In total about only 300 units of this special bodied Volvo had been built. The Swedish coachbuilder Nilsson as well as the Italian coachbuilder Bertone built all those cars for Volvo. Volvo provided the base model which was in fact the rather rare Volvo 262 which Volvo offered only between 1975 and 1977. This car was then shipped to Nilsson or Bertone where the car was cut in half and a second door was added. This second door was a totally new made part. They were not able to use a regular door because they were too short. The goal was to offer the customers a really large and comfortable entry to the rear seats. This car was especially loved by the government of the former 'DDR' ( GDR - German Democratic Republic, generally known in English as East Germany ).

Many of these cars have survived. A register can be found at the website volvobertone.com.

UPDATED - Volvo P1900 by BoS-Models

4/12/2014

4 Comments

 
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.

Volvo 240 GL estate by BoS Models

6/15/2013

5 Comments

 
This 1989 Volvo 240 GL estate announced four month ago has been released yesterday. The 1:18 scale model is marketed under the label BoS Models. This shortcut stands for Best of Show Models and is a rather new label from the German online shop Modelcarworld.

This red Volvo with the black interior has no opening or moving parts. The resin model is exclusively made for Modelcarworld by the French company OttOmobile. This iconic Volvo has never been offered before in this scale. This model has been produced in a limited batch of only 1000 models. It is exclusively available at Modelcarworld.de for 99.95 € under item # 183928.

The scale models by OttoOmobile feature normally a very high level of details and excellent reproduced surfaces. Modelcarworld is however asking a much higher price as does OttOmobile with the models in their regular program.

Update :

A French Volvo fan and collector was very lucky. He received the car wearing number 245. Congratulations.
