Andreas’ Impressions Herne Show, many people would assume that the German Plastic Show is just Elastolin and Timpo. As you can see from the photos from Andreas, the show has many different figures other than Timpo or Elastolin. I will let Andreas explain most of his finds.

This is a Cromoplasto figure depicting Pecos Bill. T
Not worry, I have not started to become a car collector. It is just because a figure in hp 1:24 scale is sitting inside, any idea of maker?
Italian MoC sets from PRB (= Plastic Rastignano Bologna), the cars and ships are doubles. There are nine (?) different Marines poses. Note the figures are similar to Marx.
Small world
ery interesting for me: a figure based on an Elastolin German army mounted officer, made by KVALITET in Hungary ( I also have a Kvalitet (= quality Old Shatterhand, which is an exact copy of Elastolin, hp)

Same circus car from the backside, it is hp and a bit bigger than 7cm scale. It is old, probably GDR, but they did not make Circus figures in East Germany
Andreas’ highlight from Herne: the Mettoy hospital set from the 1950s
Fox and dear made of rubber and possible East German origin?
It was not known so far that Elastolin made also a small 4cm canoe., The wooden peg to make the canoe standing is regarded to be a proof that it was made by Elastolin. The trapper in 7cm scale is an Italian copy
Intersting findings .
The cowboys in white cream is by Cofalu or a copied.
The soldiers copies of Marx are Dulcop made from late 70s ..PRB and CRIO were distributor ,not maker.DULCOP made these 50 mm figures as last cheap production .Usualy with a vehicle /tank of their HO military line
Animals may be PLAHO but I could be off there .

My favorites are the Italian Marines on Card. If they matched Marx scale – even close – I’d love to get my mits on them.
they are Dulcop made about 52 mm and Kent Spretcher just to carry some cards
also under Dulcop off Ebay international.
they run a bit smaller.
Just a bit too small for me then. Oh well… Thanks for the info, Erwin.
Your welcome.
Here are some if scroll down under Dulcop
Described as 45 mm but are a bit taller than that as Dulcop first original WW2 sets are 58-60 mm ,not 54 mm
