The Return of Polistil Model Car Brand

After going bankrupt years ago, the POLISTIL name has been resurrected under the May Cheong Group, the same company behind popular diecast brands like Bburago and Maisto.

The first model releases have been announced, exclusively of Ferrari’s.

Quality is expected to be similar if not slightly better compared to Bburago Signature Line. Plus the bonus of each model being limited edition and being supplied with display case. The retail price is expected to be just north of £100.

The three new Ferrari models currently in development include: Ferrari Purosangue, Ferrari 12Cilindri,and Ferrari Roma. Availability is expected towards the end of 2025.

Ferrari Purosangue 2022 – 1:18 Scale

The Ferrari Purosangue marks a bold new chapter in the Italian marque’s history, as its first ever SUV. Unlike many luxury carmakers that compromise on performance for practicality, Ferrari has stayed true to its racing heritage. Under the bonnet lies a naturally aspirated V12 engine that delivers breathtaking power, paired with an all-wheel-drive system for exceptional grip in all conditions. The cabin is meticulously crafted, offering both comfort and cutting-edge technology, while maintaining Ferrari’s unmistakable design language. Despite its SUV status, the Purosangue drives like a true sports car, blending everyday usability with the exhilarating spirit that defines the brand.

Ferrari 12Cilindri 2024 – 1:18 Scale

The Ferrari 12Cilindri is a striking tribute to the brand’s legendary front-engined V12 grand tourers, combining classic proportions with cutting-edge engineering. Unveiled in 2024 as the spiritual successor to the 812 Superfast, the 12Cilindri features a naturally aspirated 6.5-litre V12 engine producing over 800 horsepower, revving to a spine-tingling 9,500 rpm. It’s built on a newly developed platform, offering improved rigidity and handling, while the design draws inspiration from iconic Ferraris of the past, with a modern twist – notably the seamless front clamshell and sharp aerodynamic lines. Inside, the cabin showcases a refined balance of luxury and technology, with a driver-focused layout and digital interfaces. The 12Cilindri is more than just a performance machine; it’s a statement of Ferrari’s enduring commitment to pure, uncompromised motoring.
