It is the English small car par excellence - the classic Mini. Thanks to its ingenious design and transversely fitted engine - a first in automotive engineering - the Mini was a true miracle of space. In Mini Cooper S form it won the Monte-Carlo rally three times amongst other things. Altogether 5,387,862 Minis were produced during its entire production period from 1959 to 2000. Schuco is going to produce a miniature model of this Mini Cooper to a scale of 1:87. Edition 1:87 models come with a metal body and chassis. As is expected of Schuco models, a number of key features have been reproduced exactly with the greatest attention to detail.

When the first 12 models in the Schuco-Piccolo series were launched in 1957 nobody had any idea at that stage that these models would still enjoy immense popularity sixty years later. This is no doubt attributed to the simple, robust and thus charming design of the models, which originally owed their appearance to the new die-cast technology of the time. Schuco Piccolos still make a good impression today on account of their excellent running qualities and their heavy zinc die-casting design like the Mini "Mr. B".
For many young people it was the dream sports car of the late 60’s and early 70’s. The Opel GT, of which 103,463 were manufactured between 1968 and 1973. This small sports car, which was affectionately known as the “Baby Corvette” by many car enthusiasts because of its similar design to the Chevrolet Corvette, was available as the GT 1100 with 60 BHP and a top speed of 155 km/h and also as the GT 1900 with 90 BHP and a top speed of 185 km/h. Its so-called “Coke Bottle design” together with the characteristic pop-up headlights gave the Opel GT an unmistakeable image, and it is now a sought-after classic. Schuco presents the die-cast Opel GT in 1:43 scale. As is expected of Schuco models, a number of key features have been reproduced exactly with the greatest attention to detail.
Four trendy racing cars are in the box, just waiting to be given the start. After only one lap, the objective is to park right on the spot in the garage. But look out! The drivers in the other teams will try to force you off the track and back into the box. The game is limited to a production run of just 111 and is great fun for all the family.

After the first Porsche sports car, the so-called Porsche No. 1, was individually licensed for road traffic as early as the 8th of June 1948, in March 1949, Porsche presented its first production sports car at the Geneva Salon de l‘Auto, the legendary Porsche 356. Using classical tuning techniques, such as modified cylinder heads and twin carburettors, on the 4-cylinder boxer engine taken over from the VW Beetle, the engine power of the first Porsche 356 could be increased to a respectable 40 hp. Between 1949 and 1950, a total of 44 coupé and 8 convertible versions of the so-called „Gmünd Porsche 356“ were entirely hand-built. In 1950, Porsche moved back to its main factory in Stuttgart-Zuffenhausen in which, by the end of production of the type 365 in April 1965, slightly over 76,000 of this sports car icon were produced. Schuco is going to produce in a limited edition of 500 pieces a miniature model of this legendary Porsche 356 Gmünd Cabriolet to a scale of 1:43 in the PRO R line.

Under the motto "win on Sunday - sell on Monday", the Porsche 356 Speedster, in the hands of a number of private American drivers, won many of the then very popular club races held in the USA. The best known and without doubt most successful "privateer" Porsche racer in the United States was Bruce Jennings, who became known as "King Carrera". Jennings’ racing career spread over 35 years reflected more than 200 wins in various racing cars. His most famous privately owned car, a Porsche 356 Carrera Speedster with the start number "77", is now presented by Schuco as a wonderful collectible limited to just 1000 copies worldwide.

To mark "70 Years of Porsche Sports Cars", Schuco presents an Edition 1:18 version of the Porsche 550 Spyder, limited to just 777 copies worldwide. Based on the technical principles of the Porsche 356, the specialists in Porsche’s Racing department developed the 550 Spyder between 1952 and 1953, which was originally designed exclusively as a racing car. The type designation "550" actually refers to the vehicle’s kerb weight of 550 kilograms, which is incredibly low by modern-day standards. Wrapped in lightweight aluminium body panels, the sports car was powered by a 1.5-litre, four-cylinder, air-cooled engine. The overall victory of Italian racing star Umberto Maglioli at the world famous Targa Florio in Sicily in 1956 represented the first big sporting achievement of the still relatively young Porsche brand and helped to cement its image as a lightweight, reliable and highly-efficient sports car. Not least due to the huge demand from many sports drivers and well-heeled Porsche enthusiasts in the USA, the 550 Spyder was soon approved for road use and could be purchased from Porsche dealers for 24,600 German marks. Today, examples in good condition fetch up to 4 million euros. Just like the other models of the Schuco Edition 1:18, the Porsche 550 A Spyder comes with many lovingly crafted details, such as opening and closing doors, a front opening hood and the opening bonnet under which the highly detailed replica of the "Fuhrmann engine" is accommodated.

The Porsche 911 did not have its first major visual revision until model year 1974. In 1972 the responsible US authorities stipulated in the “Motor Vehicle Information and Cost Savings Act” that new vehicles must not be damaged in the event of a collision of the bumper with an obstruction up to a speed of 5 mph = 8 km/h.

The long-awaited successor to the Zuffenhausen car brand’s first production sports car, the Porsche 356, was presented in September 1963 at the IAA in Frankfurt under the name Porsche 901. Since three-digit number designations with a zero in the middle were already copyrighted by Peugeot and, as a result, an objection had been made to the “901” designation, Porsche decided without further ado to release the car onto the market under the name Porsche 911. A model name which very soon started to have a magical effect on the motor world and all sports car enthusiasts.

The likewise very finely detailed interior of the miniature Porsche is based on its full-size model and shares many details, like the five circular instruments typical of the 911 and the equally characteristic orange-coloured needles.

The rear-engine concept already gave the early 911s above-average and outstanding traction under winter conditions on snow and slush. The Schuco Porsche 911 S, with its "ski holiday" theme, thus represents a very fine complement to any Porsche model collection.
Called „Buzzi“ in its original form, at the beginning of the 60s, by Ferdinand Alexander Porsche, the eldest son of Ferry Porsche, the 911 was designed in 1963 and presented to an enthusiastic public as successor to the legendary Porsche 356. As the first mass-production Porsche, the 911 was given a completely newly developed, air-cooled, 6-cylinder, boxer engine. Continually improved and further developed over the years, the high-quality and finely detailed Schuco metal model to a scale of 1:43 represents a 911 S coupé of the year 1971.
After there had been a Porsche Speedster in the Porsche product range in 1989 on the basis of the so-called G model and also in 1993 on the basis of the 964 model series, the tradition was not continued with the successor to the 964, the 993 model series. Only two 993 speedster vehicles were produced at Porsche Exclusive on the basis of the 993 model series. A green vehicle on the occasion of the 60th birthday of Ferdinand Alexander Porsche, and a silver vehicle for US comedian and Porsche enthusiast Jerry Seinfeld. Schuco is going to produce in a limited edition of 500 pieces a miniature model of this legendary Porsche 911 (993) Speedster to a scale of 1:43 in the PRO R line. This line, consisting of resin as the material, stands for exceptional and highly filigree small series models. By means of this highgrade model material, it is possible to produce very rare and exotic exemplary vehicles in perfect quality and also in low and exclusive production runs.
In its “Original shape” at the beginning of the 1960’s and designed by the oldest son of Ferry Porsche, Ferdinand Alexander Porsche, known as “Buzzi”, the 911 was introduced to the enthusiastic public in 1963 as the successor to the legendary Porsche 356. The Porsche 911 did not have its first major visual revision until model year 1974. In 1972 the responsible US authorities stipulated in the “Motor Vehicle Information and Cost Savings Act” that new vehicles must not be damaged in the event of a collision of the bumper with an obstruction up to a speed of 5 mph = 8 km/h. In the so-called G model, completely new bumpers with the typical black folding bellows were used to fulfil these requirements. Together with the engine, which had increased to 2.7 litres, and many other technical improvements, the “New eleven” was produced in Zuffenhausen from September 1973. Schuco is going to produce in a limited edition of 500 pieces a miniature model of this legendary Porsche 911 Targa to a scale of 1:43 in the PRO R line. This line, consisting of resin as the material, stands for exceptional and highly filigree small series models. By means of this highgrade model material, it is possible to produce very rare and exotic exemplary vehicles in perfect quality and also in low and exclusive production runs.

In October 1974, at the Geneva Salon de l´Auto, the Porsche „Turbo“ was presented as the top model. Schuco is going to produce a miniature model of this Porsche 911 Turbo to a scale of 1:87. Edition 1:87 models come with a metal body and chassis. As is expected of Schuco models, a number of key features have been reproduced exactly with the greatest attention to detail. These models are the perfect choice for model railways enthusiasts, diorama makers and die-hard model collectors.
When the first 12 models in the Schuco-Piccolo series were launched in 1957 nobody had any idea at that stage that these models would still enjoy immense popularity sixty years later. This is no doubt attributed to the simple, robust and thus charming design of the models, which originally owed their appearance to the new die-cast technology of the time. Schuco Piccolos still make a good impression today on account of their excellent running qualities and their heavy zinc die-casting design like the Porsche 911 "Skiurlaub".
In the mid-seventies, in order to be able to offer a Porsche racing car capable of winning according to the FIA regulations of Group 4 and the associated competitions of the German Motor Racing Championship, the American IMSA GT series and the World Sportscar Championship, the Porsche 934 was developed. At the same time, the Zuffenhausen company also developed the Porsche 935 for Group 5 and the Porsche 936 for Group 6 of the World Sportscar Championship. While the 935 and 936 were originally only intended for use by the Porsche works team, the Porsche 934 was also to be offered to private racing stables. Because of the Group 4 regulations, only very limited changes to the bodywork relative to a production car were allowed. Thus, the riveted wing extensions and the front skirt extended close to the ground and with large air inlets are the most visible characteristics distinguishing the car from the Porsche 930 Turbo on which it is based. Schuco is going to produce in a limited edition of 911 pieces a miniature model of this Porsche 934 RSR to a scale of 1:18. The painstakingly hand-produced Schuco model has numerous functions and, with its many racing details, is an invitation to a real voyage of discovery through the racing technology of the 1970s.
In 1973, it was Germany‘s fastest mass-produced sports car - the Porsche Carrera RS 2.7. The Carrera attracted particular attention with its rear spoiler, the first to be used in mass production, which came to be known as the „ducktail“. Originally planned in an edition of only 500, by the end of 1973, a total of 1580 were built of this classic sports car weighing only 975 kg and packing 210 hp. Schuco presents the die-cast Porsche Carrera 2.7 RS in 1:43 scale. As is expected of Schuco models, a number of key features have been reproduced exactly with the greatest attention to detail.
In early 2015, at the Geneva Salon de l‘Auto, the Porsche Cayman GT4 was presented as the spearhead of the Cayman range, known internally as 981c. Its 3.8-litre, six-cylinder engine delivers 385 hp to the rear axle and gives this mid-engined sports car a driving performance that comes very close to that of a Porsche 911 GT3. Schuco presents the die-cast Porsche 911 Cayman GT4 in 1:43 scale. As is expected of Schuco models, a number of key features have been reproduced exactly with the greatest attention to detail.

Hans Glas started production of the Goggo motor scooter in 1951, and it was Germany’s best selling scooter for quite some time. Encouraged by this financial success, the Goggomobil T250 followed in 1955, and therefore the lucrative entry into the small vehicle market, which was growing rapidly at the time. When the Deutsch Bundespost (German Post Office) was looking for a low-cost small delivery vehicle as a useful addition to the VW Transporter in the early 50’s, the Glas factory in Dingolfing developed the TL 250, a small and extremely agile small transporter. Today, both the Goggo Limousine and the small transporter are sought-after collector’s items and an integral part of the old-timer scene. Schuco presents the die-cast Goggo Limousine and the Goggo small van in 1:43 scale. As is expected of Schuco models, a number of key features have been reproduced exactly with the greatest attention to detail.
To give Piccolo collectors as complete an overview as possible of all Piccolos produced in the period 1994 – 2018, the collectors' catalogue has been produced. The catalogue is available in a hard cover with a Mustang Piccolo in a limited edition of 500.
Right from the start of the legendary Schuco Studio I, it was available as an exciting and educational assembly kit. Today, this truly classic toy is back and comes in an impressive vintage-looking gift box. With the Studio Grand Prix as a building kit, you can learn about and get to understand the complex Studio mechanics as you assemble the model. The buil-ding kit is supplied in an attractive, nostalgic gift package. The Studio Grand Prix Building Kit includes a dismounted Studio Mercedes Silver Arrow with a black tool set and jack. It is still a wonderful gift, and not just for „young“ racing fans!
The Triumph TR5 was the successor model to the TR4A, and appeared in the summer of 1967. This roadster, which was designed by Michelotti, only differed from its predecessors externally by additional chrome trim on the sides and several other small details. However, beneath the long bonnet of the TR5 there was now a long-stroke inline 6-cylinder engine with a capacity of 2.5 litres and output of 143 BHP. From July 1967 to September 1968, just 2,947 examples of this classic old-school British roadster were manufactured. The vehicle is now rare with the optional and particularly visually appealing “Surrey Top”. Schuco is going to produce in a limited edition of 500 pieces a miniature model of this legendary Triumph TR5 to a scale of 1:43 in the PRO R line. This line, consisting of resin as the material, stands for exceptional and highly filigree small series models. By means of this highgrade model material, it is possible to produce very rare and exotic exemplary vehicles in perfect quality and also in low and exclusive production runs.
At the behest of the government, the highly gifted automotive engineer Ferdinand Porsche developed the German „people‘s car“ at his design office in Stuttgart from 1934 onwards. With an air-cooled 4-cylinder boxer engine and streamlined body, its design was revolutionary for those times. Later famous globally as the „Beetle“, it became the most successful vehicle in automotive history with more than 22 million units produced. Schuco is going to produce a miniature model of this VW Beetle to a scale of 1:87. Edition 1:87 models come with a metal body and chassis. As is expected of Schuco models, a number of key features have been reproduced exactly with the greatest attention to detail.

With its sporty 5-hole rims and 165 tyres, the VW 1600 S Superbug which was manufactured in South Africa from 1975 to 1978 looks extremely sporty from the outside alone. Its air-cooled 1600 ccm Boxer engine had output of 50 BHP and made the 1600 Superbug, of which exactly 5,043 examples were manufactured, one of the most sporty factory-produced Beetle models. Since the Superbug was never exported, only a right-hand drive version was available. Schuco is going to produce in a limited edition of 500 pieces a miniature model of this legendary VW 1600-S Super Bug to a scale of 1:43 in the PRO R line. This line, consisting of resin as the material, stands for exceptional and highly filigree small series models.

From the autumn of 1992 onwards, the VW Beetle 1600i was available to the domestic beetle fan community via various sales channels such as DIY stores, supermarket chains and also the occasional small direct importer. The VW Beetle, which was only manufactured in Mexico at the time, had an alarm system, maintenance-free valves, an injection system and a catalytic converter for the first time. The 46 BHP and 1600 ccm Boxer engine helped the 1600i to achieve respectable driving performance by Beetle standards. Schuco presents the die-cast VW Beetle 1600i in 1:43 scale. As is expected of Schuco models, a number of key features have been reproduced exactly with the greatest attention to detail.
Volkswagen AG developed a vehicle that was especially suitable for delivering letters and packages, emptying letter boxes and for use as a country postal vehicle on behalf of Deutsche Post (German Post Office) from the beginning of the 1960s. In order to be able to offer the vehicle to major customer Deutsche Post at a competitive price, VW delved into its parts warehouse. The 34 BHP Boxer engine originated from the 1200 Beetle and the chassis was the same as that of the Karmann Ghia. About 6000 of the VW model 147, which was affectionately known as “Fridolin”, were manufactured between 1964 and 1973. As well as the special postal versions for the German Post Office and the Swiss Post Office, a civilian version of the “Fridolin” was also manufactured. Schuco is going to produce in a limited edition of 500 pieces a miniature model of this legendary VW Fridolin to a scale of 1:18 in the PRO R line. This line, consisting of resin as the material, stands for exceptional and highly filigree small series models. By means of this highgrade model material, it is possible to produce very rare and exotic exemplary vehicles in perfect quality and also in low and exclusive production runs.
After the VW Beetle was really beginning to age at the start of the 1970s, its successor, the VW Golf, was launched in the spring of 1974. Initially offered with a choice of 50 PS or 70 PS, by 1975 it was soon followed by the VW GTI, today still considered the forefather of compact sports saloons. Its 1.6 litre injection engine producing 110 PS and the associated driving performance made the GTI the dream- and cult vehicle of an entire generation. Schuco is going to produce a miniature model of this VW Golf to a scale of 1:64. Edition 1:64 models come with a metal body and chassis. In addition to the prototypical wheel rims, the Schuco 1:64 models stand out due to the many lovingly detailed components.
After the rapid growth in the 50s of the desire for free mobility combined with the wish for travel to southern countries in large sections of the population, the camping culture became widespread as never before. It quickly occurred to a few talented vehicle developers that, in addition to the trailer caravans already known since the 20s, motorised caravans, motorhomes, could be developed. Thus, in California, a building kit appeared with which a VW Beetle could be converted into a low-cost version of a small motorhome - the Bug Camper. As well as demanding some handiwork skill, the conversion did take a good deal of time. The normal space in a Beetle was not enough for two beds, a table, wall cupboards and cooking facilities, so massive changes had to be made. To achieve this, the bodywork from just in front of the windscreen to the rear end was completely removed and a wooden superstructure was then built on the remaining chassis. Schuco is going to produce in a limited edition of 500 pieces a miniature model of this legendary VW Beetle Motorhome to a scale of 1:18 in the PRO R line. This line, consisting of resin as the material, stands for exceptional and highly filigree small series models. By means of this highgrade model material, it is possible to produce very rare and exotic exemplary vehicles in perfect quality and also in low and exclusive production runs.
