     Pic 5 , a Simba set . Simba , Dickie Group is the main toy group in Europe , with brands like Schuco as maker or Tamiya as importer . I think that Simba name wasn't used often but this set contains two DTM type Calibras . These cars are Real Toy models , I will show them later and they were also sold under other brands . These two have decorations that makes us think about 1995 Rosberg and Joest cars . These were cheap toys and now it isn't easy spot complete sets .

     The promotional bier trucks are quite common in Germany . Cheap plastic models with colorful decorations of bier brands there are lots of people collecting them . I have only one truck type the 1952 Blitz 1.75 ton and a couple of different decorations but I believe that we can find much more decorations . You can see them in the following pictures . 

     These trucks were the last german models in my collection . Now we move to the " rest of Europe " vitrine , with models from Portugal to Romania and from Finland to Italy . Hope you like them .
