To mark „40 Years of VW T3“, Schuco presents a set in its Edition 1:43 limited to just 500 copies worldwide. The VW T3 bus, the pick-up with tarpaulin and the box van are dispatched together in a high-quality display case. As is expected of Schuco models, a number of key features have been reproduced exactly with the greatest attention to detail.
Warning! Not suitable for children under 14 years.
When one talks nowadays about legendary cars such as the VW Beetle, classic Mini, VW Bulli or Porsche 911, any such list should always include the Unimog from Mercedes-Benz. Within Unimog‘s long history, the Mercedes-Benz U 406 represents the classical Unimog for many fans. Schuco is going to produce a miniature model of this Unimog U406 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.
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. This Piccolo VW T1 “VW service vehicle” double cab pick-up has a limited edition of exactly 500. A fine addition to any Piccolo and VW model collection.
Since there was a sharp rise in the demand for flexible, multi-use transport vehicles in the early stages of the German economic miracle, Volkswagen started production of the VW Type 2 in 1950. This all-rounder, which was affectionately known as the „VW Bulli“ by its many fans, developed into the outstanding workhorse of the economic upturn in the Germany of the 1950s. Whether as a closed panel van, flatbed truck, bus or deluxe bus in the „Samba“ version, the VW T1 was characterised in all areas of application by its outstanding reliability and versatility. A comprehensive Volkswagen dealer and service network also ensured high levels of customer satisfaction and widespread use of the VW Transporter by small, medium-sized and larger companies. Its likeable and unmistakable design have also contributed to the vehicle‘s cult status today. Schuco is going to produce a miniature model of this VW T1 pick-up with tarpaulin to a scale of 1:18. The Schuco model features a multitude of lovingly crafted details and moving parts. The doors, bonnet and tailgate can all be opened. The model has a functioning steering system and there is also a key for the ignition lock. It‘s precisely what a metal model should be!
A really great gift idea for all toy and car enthusiasts - the Schuco Piccolo assembly boxes. Packed in a smart and nostalgic gift box, one of the solid and iconic Schuco Piccolo models can be assembled in just a few minutes with a little practice. Since each of the small assembly boxes is a limited edition, the gift can also quickly become a real collector’s item.
If the VW T1 was the most successful small transporter of the 1950s and 1960s in West Germany, this position was held in the German Democratic Republic from 1961 by the Barkas B1000. Announced as a „Schnelltransporter“ (quick transporter), the Barkas B1000 was produced in the period 1961–1990 in the VEB Barkas-Werke in Karl-Marx-Stadt, now Chemnitz. As an open, flat-bed truck, it now appears to a scale of 1:43 as a „Schwalbe Customer Service“ vehicle with a Schwalbe KR51 as its dashing load.
Known in the German-speaking region as the MTS-50, the Russian MTZ-50 tractor was produced from 1961 to 1985. Also known as the Belarus MTS-50, it was produced over a period of 24 years in Minsk, Belarus, in the „Minski Traktornyy Zavod“, the Minsk Tractor Works, leading to the unbelievable total production for a tractor of 1.25 million, mostly delivered to other states in the Soviet Union. Schuco is going to produce in a limited edition of 500 pieces a miniature model of this Belarus MTS-50 to a scale of 1:32 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 Bremen company Borgward resumed the production of passenger vehicles, transporters and trucks in Bremen with considerable success after the end of World War Two, in 1953 the Borgward development department started to think about the development and production of a Borgward tractor. After producing just three prototypes by 1955, the Bremen company decided not to continue with the Borgward tractor project because of the strong competition situation and the lack of a dealer and service network for the tractor business. The whereabouts of the three prototypes is currently unknown. Schuco is going to produce in a limited edition of 1.000 pieces a miniature model of this legendary Borgward Tractor 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.
It‘s a real cult young-timer - the CASE IH 1455 XL. Produced in both Neuss and Doncaster, England from 1981 to 1996, the CASE IH 1455 XL gained a large and satisfied customer base. Equipped with a 6586-cc, six cylinder engine developing 146 hp, this tractor also represented the last model to be developed in-house by IH (International Harvester) before the company was taken over by CASE. The chief characteristic of the CASE IH 1455 XL is the reliable all-wheel drive. Among other advantages, this was certainly one of the main reason for the substantial sales figures, with an impressive 7,621 of the CASE IH 1455 XL sold during its 15 years in production. Schuco presents the CASE IH 1455 XL tractor as a high-quality metal miniature in the popular 1:32 scale. The Schuco Edition 1:32 is highly impressive due to its very detailed and precise finish. The tractor has functioning steering and is without doubt a must-have in every tractor collection.
With significantly more than 31,000 manufactured examples, the Case 633 was a real best-seller in the Case tractor product range in the 1970s and 1980s, and the Case IH tractor product range from 1984 onwards. Case took over the agricultural machinery product range of International Harvester (IH) in 1984 and subsequently traded as Case-IH. The 633 model was available with rear wheel drive and 4-wheel drive, and belonged to the so-called Case IH A-range. Its 3 litre 3-cylinder engine provided 52 BHP and made it possible for this standard tractor to travel at speeds of 25 or 30 km/h. Schuco presents the CASE International 633 as a high-quality metal miniature in the popular 1:32 scale. The Schuco Edition 1:32 is highly impressive due to its very detailed and precise finish. The tractor has functioning steering and is without doubt a must-have in every tractor collection.
From 1963 to 1983, the „Chelyabinskiy Traktornyy Zavod“, the Chelyabinsk Tractor Plant, produced, believe it or not, over 410,000 T-100 track laying tractors. Rather more powerful than its S-100 predecessor model with 108 hp, the T-100 was used both in the agricultural collectives of the Eastern bloc and very often as a bulldozer. In the course of its 20-year production life, this track layer underwent a process of continuous development. Thus, from 1973, more and more technical components of its larger successor, the T-130, were incorporated to apply the part-sharing principle and thus make production more efficient and cost-effective. Schuco is going to produce in a limited edition of 500 pieces a miniature model of this T-100 to a scale of 1:32 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 countries of the former Eastern bloc, the T-150 K is still a widespread tractor the development of which was started at the end of the 1960s. With its engine layout and, above all, the typical articulated steering, it is very similar to the larger and more powerful Kirovets K-700. The T-150 K was produced in the Kharkiv Tractor Plant, which, when production started in 1972, still belonged to the Soviet Union and now belongs to Ukraine. Very reliable because of its extremely robust design, from the mid-70s, this tractor was also imported in large quantities to the former GDR. Thus it was that, in 1988, over 2,500 of the T-150 K were to be found in the inventory of the agricultural production collectives of the GDR. Schuco is going to produce in a limited edition of 500 pieces a miniature model of this Charkow T-150 K to a scale of 1:32 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 beginning of the 50s, after their competitors in the tractor market, Lanz and Hanomag, had already made an early start in the production of track-laying tractors, Deutz in Cologne also started development of a series of track-laying tractors. The first Deutz track-laying tractor was the Deutz DK 60, which went into mass production in 1953. Very advanced for its time, the Deutz four-cylinder, 4-stroke diesel engine delivered 60 hp and, compared to the competition, had clear advantages with regard to fuel consumption and, very important in agriculture, cold-start behaviour While the first track-laying tractors from Deutz were developed almost exclusively for agricultural use, from the early 60s, Deutz track-laying tractors were increasingly offered as purely construction machinery. Schuco is going to produce in a limited edition of 500 pieces a miniature model of this Deutz 60 PS track-laying tractor to a scale of 1:32 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.
Just 35,500 examples of the Deutz D40 tractor, which was developed and manufactured in the Deutz factories in Cologne-Deutz, were produced during its entire production period between 1957 and 1963. The D40 was the first Deutz tractor with a newly developed and extremely economical three-cylinder engine. The D40, which was produced using a frameless block construction method, belonged to the Deutz D model series, and had output of 35 BHP with a capacity of 2550 ccm. Schuco presents the die-cast Deutz D40 L 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.
From 1982, the Deutz DX 250 was built by Klöckner-Humbold-Deutz (KHD) primarily for export. This large tractor was the successor to the Deutz DX 230. When the DX 250 was developed in Cologne-Deutz, the company had a particular eye on the American market because it seemed to be there that the market for tractors beyond the 200 hp threshold was greatest. However, the desired sales numbers were never reached, so the production of the DX 250 was stopped as early as 1984. The engine used was the 220-hp Deutz BF6L 413 FR with 6 cylinders and a displacement of 9572 cc. The top speed of the DX 250, weighing in at 9250 kg unladen, was about 30 km/h (19 mph). Schuco presents the Deutz DX 250 tractor as a high-quality metal miniature in the popular 1:32 scale. The Schuco Edition 1:32 is highly impressive due to its very detailed and precise finish. The tractor has functioning steering and is without doubt a must-have in every tractor collection.
The „Universal tractor for large agricultural and forestry businesses“. This is how Deutz advertised for the Deutz F4L 514 in Cologne-Deutz from 1952 onwards. With its 5322 ccm, air-cooled four-cylinder diesel engine and output of 47.5 PS, the Deutz F4L 514 was also the most powerful model that Deutz had to offer in its range of tractors until the mid-1950s. During its entire construction period from 1952 to 1965, more than 7800 examples of the F4L 514 were produced in Cologne-Deutz and delivered to satisfied customers. Schuco is going to produce a miniature model of this Deutz F4 L 514 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.
Always at the ready, extremely wear-resistant and highly economical. These were the attributes with which Klöckner-Humboldt-Deutz AG publicised the 50-hp, type Deutz F3 M417 universal tractor in Cologne-Deutz. Also known as the „Deutz steel tractor“, the F3 was built between 1942 and 1953 as a versatile, universal and road tractor. This all-rounder was supplied as standard with a belt pulley and a power take off shaft. Its simple and robust construction made the F3 M417 very durable and technically reliable, it continued almost unchanged in production from the end of the War and was still in use as a road tractor until the end of the 70s. Schuco presents the Deutz F3 tractor with hay trailer as a high-quality metal miniature in the popular 1:32 scale. The Schuco Edition 1:32 is highly impressive due to its very detailed and precise finish. The tractor has functioning steering and is without doubt a must-have in every tractor collection.

With the series 9, the DEUTZ-FAHR engineers have developed an ultra-modern, highly intelligent large tractor which makes all work easier and also speeds it up thanks to the unique operating convenience, automated routine functions and extremely advanced technologies - and all of this with the lowest conceivable consumption of resources. The ultra-modern Deutz Fahr 9340 TTV is a large tractor with which farmers and agricultural contractors can achieve the best results. It leaves nothing to be desired with regard to its engine power with its water-cooled Deutz-TTCD 6-cylinder engine with 7.8 litres and output of 336 BHP. Schuco presents the Deutz-Fahr 9340 TTV as a high-quality metal miniature in the popular 1:32 scale. The Schuco Edition 1:32 is highly impressive due to its very detailed and precise finish. The tractor has functioning steering and is without doubt a must-have in every tractor collection.
LIMITED EDITION. UNLIMITED PERFORMANCE. It is with these keywords that Deutz-Fahr presents the Deutz 9340 TTV WARRIOR as the strongest WARRIOR special model of all times. With its 346 hp, the 9340 TTV WARRIOR is an ultramodern and highly intelligent, large tractor with unique ease of control, automated routine functions and the most advanced technologies. Its highly efficient Deutz engine with the latest exhaust technology, the continuously variable TTV gearbox for precision speeds from 0.2 to 60 km/h (0.125 to 36.7 mph), the newly developed axle suspension, 12,000 kg lifting force, the electrically opening engine bonnet and its breathtaking design – every single component of the 9340 TTV WARRIOR is highly innovative and amongst the best currently available on the market for large tractors. Like the large original, the Schuco metal model also has many interesting details and, with its model weight of almost 600 grams, is a real heavyweight.
The Dutra D4K B was a heavy tractor with all-wheel drive, produced in the Hungarian „Red Star“ tractor factory. With its 90-hp, 6-cylinder diesel engine, with a displacement of almost 8 litres, the Dutra was rather top-heavy and particularly well suited to working heavy ground. With production starting in 1964, the D4K B very quickly displaced the very loud and uncomfortable track-laying tractor in the GDR. The agricultural collectives of the GDR could only obtain its successor as a heavy tractor, the Kirovets K-700 if, in return, they provided proof that a D4K had been scrapped. For this reason, almost all Dutra D4Ks in the GDR were scrapped, and any surviving examples are among the great attractions of any tractor meeting. Schuco is going to produce a miniature model of this legendary Dutra D4K B 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.

A great gift idea for both big and small fans of model cars - the new Schuco Edition 1:64 Kits. In just a few steps the accurately reproduced Schuco 1:64 models can be assembled or disassembled using the screwdriver included in the delivery. Appearing as the first Schuco 1:64 assembly kits are the Mercedes-Benz Unimog 406, the legendary Porsche 356 classic sports car and the cult Volkswagen T1 Transport Bus. 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.
One of the most popular producers of tractors for smaller farming businesses was Gebrüder Eicher (Eicher Brothers). In 1948, they presented the first tractor in the world to be equipped with an air-cooled diesel engine, making it very much simpler to deal with in every-day use - the Eicher ED 16. The extremely fine detail of the Schuco model depicts the Eicher ED16 II, which started production in 1953. Improvements over the ED I include higher engine power and a 5-speed gearbox. Schuco presents the die-cast Eicher ED 16 with cuttor bar 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.
Equipped with an air-cooled, 2-cylinder, 4-stroke, direct-injection diesel engine, the Eicher ED26 was one of the best sellers in the Eicher tractor range from 1956 to 1960. Already in 1951, Eicher had begun to produce farm machinery as well as tractors and the Eicher ED26 was advertised with the slogan that we still know today, „Für den Bauern ein sicheres Pfand: Schlepper und Geräte aus einer Hand“ (A safe bet for farmers; a single source for machines and tractors). Schuco is going to produce in a limited edition of 500 pieces a miniature model of this legendary Eicher ED26 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.

Because of disputes over brand name rights, the series of tractors presented in 1956 as Favorit RS14, from the VEB (Publicly-Owned Company) Schlepperwerk Nordhausen was renamed Famulus RS14 on the occasion of the Leipzig Industry Fair in 1958. The designation „Famulus“ was derived from the Latin with the meaning assistant, servant or labourer. Schuco is going to produce in a limited edition of 500 pieces a miniature model of this Famulus RS14/36 to a scale of 1:32 in the PRO R line.

From 1928, the Fendt company was still busy producing laboriously hand-built grass mowers. Nevertheless, in 1930 they presented the first Fendt tractor, the Fendt Dieselross F9. The name Dieselross related to the workhorses still widely used at the time in farming but bit-by-bit being displaced by diesel-powered tractors. The Fendt Dieselross F20G on which our Schuco model to a scale of 1:18 is based was Fendt‘s mid-range model from 1951. Over 6,300 were built up to 1957 and had an upright, single-cylinder, 4-stroke engine with a displacement of 1.5 litres, delivering 20 hp through an 8-speed gearbox to the rear axle. This permitted speeds from 0.8 to 20 km/h (0.5 - 12.5 mph). Since 1997, the former family business in Marktoberndorf has belonged to the American agricultural equipment concern, AGCO Corporation and, since 2009 has traded under the name of AGCO GmbH. Schuco is going to produce in a limited edition of 1.000 pieces a miniature model of this Fendt Dieselross F20G to a scale of 1:18. Just like the other models of the Schuco Edition 1:18, the Fendt 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 engine is accommodated.

Fendt presented the Favorit 622 LS large tractor with 211 BHP in the autumn of 1980. The designation LS stands for “Luxury Standard”. The 622 LS generates its 211 BHP with a water-cooled, 11.4 litre 6-cylinder diesel engine. Since the LS 633 is identical to its big brother the Favorit LS 626 apart from the lack of an exhaust turbocharger, four of the original nineteen 622 models which were built were converted to the 252 BHP Favorit 626 LS in the factory. The final Fendt Favorit 622 LS was built at Fendt in May 1982. Schuco presents the Fendt Favorit 622 LS as a high-quality metal miniature in the popular 1:32 scale. The Schuco Edition 1:32 is highly impressive due to its very detailed and precise finish. The tractor has functioning steering and is without doubt a must-have in every tractor collection.

The first Fendt tool carrier was unveiled in 1953 and entered production in 1957. All tool carrier models were not initially equipped with a fixed driver’s cab, a fact that soon failed to meet user requirements. This model series was therefore systematically further developed and still exists to this day in a much altered form. The Schuco model in 1:43 scale, transporting a load of split logs, represents an early version of this model series without a driver’s cab. As is expected of Schuco models, a number of key features have been reproduced exactly with the greatest attention to detail. Schuco presents the die-cast Fendt GT with wood load in 1:43 scale.

Because of the considerable demand for small transporters and the major success of the Volkswagen T1 transporter, in-house development of a range of Ford small transporters also started at the Ford factories in Cologne-Niehl. The Ford FK 1000, which was later known as the Ford Taunus Transit, was introduced in 1953 and was manufactured until 1966. With a top speed of 95 km/h, the FK1000 was considerably faster than its competitors the VW T1 (75 km/h) and the Tempo Matador (80 km/h), which led to its nickname of “Racing Transporter” at the time. Schuco presents the die-cast Ford FK 1000 with NSU Max 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.
The model RS09 Fortschritt equipment carrier was the most important working device by far in the LPG’s (agricultural collectives) and the VEG’s (nationally owned properties) in the former German Democratic Republic. This even went so far that even the architecture of the stable building in the GDR was adapted to the gauge, height and turning circle of this device. The RS09 (RS = wheeled tractor) tractor and equipment carrier was introduced in 1955, was also known under the product name of GT124 Maulwurf (Maulwurf = mole / GT = Carrier). Because of the large quantity that was produced, the “Mole” was one of the best-selling tractors in the DDR and the entire eastern block. Schuco presents the Fortschritt RS09-GT124 pick-up as a high-quality metal miniature in the popular 1:32 scale. The Schuco Edition 1:32 is highly impressive due to its very detailed and precise finish. The tractor has functioning steering and is without doubt a must-have in every tractor collection.

Designed as a towing tractor, the ZT 300 series was produced from 1967 to 1984 in the collective combine Fortschritt Landmaschinen - VEB Traktorenwerk Schönebeck. At Fortschritt, this series took over from the very successful Famulus series. Up to 1984, a total of 72,382 of the whole series were produced, a gigantic number for a tractor model. Unlike the ZT 300 the ZT 303, produced from 1972, had an additional frontwheel drive and, because of its versatility, developed to the most sold and successful model of the 300 series. In 1984, the ZT 300 series was replaced by the ZT 320 series. Schuco presents the Fortschritt ZT 303 tractor as a high-quality metal miniature in the popular 1:32 scale. The Schuco Edition 1:32 is highly impressive due to its very detailed and precise finish. The tractor has functioning steering and is without doubt a must-have in every tractor collection.
At the end of the 70s a start had already been made in the Fortschritt Landmaschinen collective combine on plans for the successor to the very successful ZT 300 series. Because of the outst5anding basis represented by the ZT 303 and ZT 323 models, the 320 series was not to be a purely new development but rather an extensive and well thought-out upgrade of the existing models. Given that, when presented, the basic model of the new series, the ZT 320, was already technically out-of-date because it lacked all-wheel drive, the publicly owned company Traktorenwerk Schönebeck very quickly concentrated on production of the ZT 323. As a part of the upgrade, this was, in terms of fuel consumption, significantly more efficient than the ZT 303 and thus able to build on the sales success of the latter. Schuco presents the Fortschritt ZT 323 tractor as a high-quality metal miniature in the popular 1:32 scale. The Schuco Edition 1:32 is highly impressive due to its very detailed and precise finish. The tractor has functioning steering and is without doubt a must-have in every tractor collection.
The flagship of Aschaffenburg-based tractor manufacturer Güldner, the Güldner G75, was also available with 4-wheel drive from 1965 onwards. The Güldner G-75 A (the “A” in the product designation stood for 4-wheel drive) had 5 BHP more power than its rear-wheel drive sibling, the G-75. With its 4.7 litre 6-cylinder inline diesel engine and 75 PS, exactly 201 examples of the G-75A were manufactured between 1965 and 1969. The 1:32 scale Schuco collector’s model is pulling a typical circus carriage, which was popular during the 1950’s and 1960’s.
Güldner-Motoren-Werke AG, a manufacturer of diesel engines and tractors, was founded in 1904 by Hugo Güldner, Carl von Linde and Georg von Krauß as Güldner-Motoren-Gesellschaft GmbH. The first tractor was presented in 1936 and it simultaneously marked the start of full-scale tractor production at Güldner. The 60 bhp Güldner G 60 with four-wheel drive hit the market in 1968. Schuco presents the Güldner G60A tractor as a high-quality metal miniature with roof and functioning front loader in the popular 1:32 scale. The Schuco Edition 1:32 is highly impressive due to its very detailed and precise finish. The tractor has functioning steering and is without doubt a must-have in every tractor collection.
The first completely newly developed commercial vehicle from Hanomag after the Second World War appeared in 1950 - the Hanomag L28. In accordance with the design trend in truck construction at the time, the Hanomag L28 was designed as a so-called “Long bonnet” vehicle, and was therefore several years ahead of its subsequent competitor vehicles the Opel Blitz and the Borgwand B 1500 with regard to the design. The L28 was produced from 1950 to 1960. The most common superstructure variant was the pick-up and the closed box-type van. Schuco presents the die-cast Hanomag L28 box van with Horex Regina 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.

Under the watchful eye of Renzo Rivolta, the founder of Iso Motor Italien S.A. based in Madrid, roughly 1,000 Italian Iso Isettas were manufactured between 1953 and 1959. The basic thought behind the development of the Isetta was the increasing lack of parking spaces in big cities and the growing demand for fuel efficient vehicles. The result was a bubble-shaped car on two front and one rear wheel, equipped with a 236cc, single-cylinder engine. The front door opened to the front with the steering column and sparsely equipped instrument panel swinging out with it. This cult car was also available as a flat bed truck known as the Isocarro. Schuco now presents a miniature PRO.R line model of the Isocarro flat bed truck in scale 1:18, loaded with wine demijohns and limited to 250 copies worldwide. This series has become established as a small series model line made of resin that stands for extraordinary and highly sophisticated models.

The John Deere 1270G-series harvester is represented by two different forestry machine models in the Schuco 1:32 Edition – the John Deere 1270G 6-wheel and the 1270G 8-wheel versions. Both harvesters are characterised by exceptional efficiency, versatility and extremely high productivity. Both the 6-wheel and 8-wheel harvesters are powered by a John Deere PowerTech Plus diesel engine – a 6-cylinder, 9-litre turbocharged unit that produces a massive 1,315 Nm of torque.
Founded in 1837 by the farrier, John Deere, in the US state of Illinois, Deere & Company, with its leading brand „John Deere“, is today the world leader in the field of agricultural technology. Shortly after the end of the 1st World War, Deere & Company started production of the first tractor models. During the world economic crisis, from 1931 to 1933, the company did not insist on repayments due from insolvent farmers. This generosity was later rewarded with many new customers and long-lasting customer loyalty. The John Deere 4850 on which our Schuco model is based was, from 1983 to 1988, a part of John Deere‘s 50 series. Driven by a 7630-cm3, 6-cylinder diesel engine, the 4850 delivered a maximum torque of 875 Nm.

Founded in the 19th century, Heinrich Lanz AG in Mannheim very quickly developed into one of Germany‘s leading agricultural machinery manufacturers. The Mannheim company started to manufacture farm tractors in the 1920s, and therefore played an important part in the motorisation of German agriculture. Farm tractors with a single-cylinder glow-plug engine were produced with great success under the name of Lanz Bulldog. These tractors made such an impression that the name Bulldog became widely used in Germany as a colloquial expression for farm tractors in general. The Lanz Bulldog was also produced in several different countries under license. It was produced as the Ursus in Poland, the Le Percheron in France, the Pampa T01 in Argentina and as the KL Bulldog by Kelly & Lewis Ltd. in Australia. Schuco presents the die-cast K.L. Bulldog 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.

Its dimensions alone make the Kirovets K-700 all,wheel drive tractor something special at every tractor meeting and, of course, in every tractor collection. Developed from the end of the 50s by the Russian manufacturer, Kirovets, the first prototype of the K-700 left the factory gates in Leningrad in July 1962. Between 1962 and 1975, well over 100,000 K-700s were produced. With an 8-cylinder diesel engine, developing 215 hp, sand centre-pivot steering, from 1968, the numbers exported to the GDR were also not insignificant. Known for its extreme reliability and very efficient, especially on large agricultural areas, using a K-700 could triple productivity compared with the Fortschritt ZT 300. However, to be able to make the best, economical use of a Kirovets K-700 in the state-controlled agriculture of the GDR, separate fields had to be joined up to form large acreages. It was also calculated that a K-700 had to be worked for at least 1400 hours per year to be profitable. Since this was impossible with single-shift working, a two-shift system was introduced for agricultural production collectives equipped with the K-700. Schuco is going to produce a miniature model of this Kirovets K700 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.
