Citroën Type H Service from COBI triumphs at the Spielwarenmesse 2026 International Toy Fair in Nuremberg!

During Spielwarenmesse (the International Toy Fair in Nuremberg) the COBI brand achieved another notable success. The new Citroën Type H model was recognized as the best-replicated car model presented at the fair and won the MODEL CAR HALL OF FAME award!

The jury appreciated not only the excellent details and proportions, but above all the faithful reproduction of the character of the original vehicle, which is not easy in the world of construction block models. This award confirms that COBI not only entertains with its sets but also passionately recreates and teaches the history of motoring.

An iconic classic service vehicle

The award-winning model depicts a classic yellow Citroën Type H service vehicle in 1:35 scale, consisting of 187 elements. Each block has been designed to reflect the specifics of this iconic car, from the characteristic bodywork to the movable rubber wheels and accurately reproduced prints.

The Citroën Type H, first presented in 1947, quickly gained a reputation as a reliable and extremely functional utility vehicle. Its distinctive, corrugated bodywork and robust construction meant that it was used for many years in many industries, from service industries to trade and transport.

These timeless features are also perfectly reflected in its modern interpretation in the form of a COBI block model, which faithfully captures the spirit of the original, combining historical authenticity with a modern approach to model design.
