Opel Porsche renntransporter by Schuco

[Jager]

Following their success with the M.A.N. Porsche transporter from the 1960's, Schuco have now produced the Opel transporter that often accompanied the M.A.N. unit :



Here's the pair of transporters on the way to the 1965 Targa Florio.



If you've already shelled out +€200 for the M.A.N. transporter, you'll need equally deep pockets for this one.

That's really cool looking!

Fantastic model. Not for my budget, though.

Second verse, the same as the first.

As far as I know, the opel is in 1/18, so no problems for my wallet

Thanks Danny. If its 1:18 then that makes the price more understandable. However it looks a bit fragile to carry a couple of heavy 1:18 Porsches.

If they have the tooling for 1:18, I guess we'll see it in 1:43 eventually.

Can`t wait to get one in 1/43. still waiting for the auwärter bus in Porsche livery. Delayed due to quality problems

Seen the first impressions of the Neuremberg toy fair. And Schuco announced it in 1/43

I took the plunge and ordered one to go with my MAN transporter. This one is a lot cheaper....less than €100.

[danny]

where have you ordered that for that price

[Jager]

Send Andy a PM....he has a source.
