#649 Guisval - Renault 12 Ts Policia Serie Escorpión (Ref. 109) (1979)


Which man child does non similar to play alongside a constabulary car? Even really pocket-size children are magically appealed yesteryear constabulary cars alongside their loud sirens in addition to lights on the roof. Almost all toylines involving figures or vehicles accept policemen (or well-nigh rarely policewomen) in addition to constabulary vehicles. Also Guisval. From the outset of the describe of piece of occupation inward 1974 to 1978 they had a Ford Capri alongside Police ornamentation (and the same reference number), but inward 1979, this automobile was replaced for the 1 inward the next pictures. The Ford Capri yesteryear the way, seems to live inspired inward a Corgi model.

The Escorpión serial was already explained inward #125, where I showed a Porsche Carrera. This describe of piece of occupation had a scale of 1:37, bigger than the classic 1:43. They were actually striking dorsum then, since well-nigh of them included around plastic accesories on the roof, front end or dorsum parts, in addition to really prissy decals.


This model is a automobile that to my cognition was never used yesteryear the Castilian police, I accept flora a moving painting of the local constabulary from Huelva (Southwestern Spain), but I don´t know how many units at that topographic point were or when were they inward service. No affair what, the automobile looks smashing alongside that constabulary decoration, nighttime bluish alongside white doors, It has practicable (front) doors in addition to trunk.


The same model was too released inward other decorations in addition to alongside other reference numbers: Ref. 101 “Familiar” in addition to Ref. 104 “Cruz Roja” (“Red Cross” Ambulance). Guisval too made this automobile inward 1:64 scale (Campeón Series).

I  bought this toy from a guy, who had bought it himself from a model collector who collected exclusively Renault models. The automobile is nevertheless inward its master box, in addition to I would fifty-fifty nation unopened. One side of the box is nevertheless stuck together alongside sellotape from (what´s probably) an erstwhile toystore: "José Mocete" located inward "Limites, 12" (street, number). I accept checked if I could respect such address inward google maps, but got no results. I would similar to know where was located that erstwhile toystore, but I volition likely never know.


Under the car, at that topographic point is a pocket-size folded catalogue alongside the Escorpión Series from 1979. I haven’t opened it, but if yous are curious, simply banking concern stand upwards for it here: http://miniaturasenmetal.jimdo.com/serie-escorpi%C3%B3n/
