Solido | Z Models New Announcements!

A few brands raising eyebrows at the 2020 German Toy Fair are Solido and parent company Z Models. Our team wasn’t overly impressed with the initial releases from Z Models, but 1:18 and diecast samples here of the upcoming Ford Shelby GT500 and the Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 look promising! A spokesperson for Z Models has told us as of today there is no official release date on the schedule for either piece. We’ll definitely keep you all updated!

Sister brand Solido is once again pushing the novelty meter forward. The exceptional price point, as well as diecast metal exteriors, are bringing much love and new generation of collectors back to the hobby. Highlights include some good old America muscle cars and the classic Porsche 911 964 RS. Well done!

Lots of good stuff there...pretty excited to see what they end up releasing.

The red 964 Turbo 3.6 looks fantastic...much better than the Welly I have.

I can't remember, is the Welly sealed or partially sealed? :scratchhead:

that would be ideal....that's the biggest drawback of the Welly. Unfortunately, its the biggest draw (for me, at least) of the 3.6 Turbo.
