Anguplas

PIC-R    EKO / Alt Berlin / Norev / AHM / Aneste / Concentra / Plasticos Gacela

Anguplas was a Spanish company founded by Jordi Angusto, on this page you'll find a listing of all the 1/87 Anguplas carmodels we have been able to find sofar. Anguplas has also made a series of 87th scale building kits, although out of twenty kits announced there were eight that were never made. The kits are listed at the bottom of this page. We have also found some models that were announced but never made by Anguplas, they were the Cadillac Eldorado, Ford T 1927, Nash Metropolitan, Dodge WC-54 Military Ambulance, Dodge WC-64 and the M16 Half Track with missiles.

Anguplas and Norev have definately cooperated, there were several Anguplas models that were licensed from Norev, and there were several models that were made for Norev by Anguplas. These models can be distinguished from the original Norev models because they have 'made in Spain' on the bottom and Anguplas used different wheels on the models. The following models have been made: Citroën 1200 (type H), Renault Floride, Panhard PL17, Unic Cement transport,  Citroën DS 19, Unic Bennes Marrel (dumptruck) and Simca Ariane. Further, there were two other models announced, the Simca Aronde and a Microcar Renault, but these have never been made by Anguplas. This cooperation also functioned the other way around, the Anguplas Alfa Romeo Giulietta and the Citroën 2CV 'furgoneta' (van) were also released by Norev. 

The following models were made in cooperation with Norev:

Scanned copies of Anguplas catalogues are available, click the thumbnails to have a look ! (Use the back button in your browser to return here). The two scans on the right are from a 1962 catalogue that was issued by Anguplas' German importer at the time... Paul M. Preiser !

Pictured below are the vehicles the Anguplas salesmen drove. The car on the right has showcases on both sides whereas the two other cars have complete dioramas in the back. Ofcourse, the salesmen also brought their sample cases with them when they visited their customers and pictures of these cases can be found by clicking here.

The planes

Anguplas did think about starting a series of airplane models as well. Unfortunately the plan was abandoned and the models never made it into regular production. There were, however, some prototypes made. These models are extremely hard to find and prices for them are sky-high.

We know the following prototypes exist, but there may have been more:

701 Dassault Etendard IV
702 Fouga CM-170 Magister
703 Dassault Mirage III
