NEW RELEASES |
You will be able to find here news about the latest Volvo scale models which have been announced or just been released. |
Wiking is now offering the first release of their newly tooled Volvo Amazon 4-door model. This Volvo Amazon represents a model from 1957. Volvo produced the Amazon from 1957 to 1970. This new H0 (1:87) model comes painted in black (Volvo color code 19) and is fitted with a red interior (trim code 15-113). This Amazon comes otherwise with the very sames features which Wiking has already fitted to the previously released Volvo Amazon 2-door model. This new model is available under item number 022802 (EAN code 4006190228022). I'm still waiting for my models to arrive. I will write an in-depth article as soon as I have 'em.

Most of you being scale model enthusiast have probably followed the news from this years toy show in Nürnberg (Germany).
Well my article is not yet finished but I can offer you a tiny teaser. Most companies do offer each year a scale model from their program range as a limited edition to their clients visiting them ant their booths in Nürnberg. Most wear the logo of the Nürnberg toy show and feature especially decorated boxes and/or dedicated and labeled bases. This year is of course no exception but we rarely see a Volvo among those limited editions. Wiking however has produced this year the Volvo PV544 in H0 (1:87) in a limited edition of only 750 units for this years toy fair. The Volvo PV544 i painted white and features a red interior. The car has the toy fair logo printed in red on both sides doors and the window box has a red base with the text "Limited Edition" written next to the logo. It is not the fanciest model around but some people do love to collect those limited editions. And sometimes prices can go up in time for these models. But I wouldn't bet on it. Up to you if you think that this is a must-have.
