The next series consisted of 20 models, among which the original 6 types were continued. The axles were now made of plastic in either black or white. A few can be found with orange, light blue and grey axles. The colours were even more varied and usually brighter, with the standard red, blue, green and yellow as the most common. I have run into almost every thinkable colour, but some are obviously pretty rare. The "new" 14 models were Opel Record, Ford Taunus, Mercedes 180, Mercedes 300 SL open, VW, VW Capriolet, Ford Fairlane, BMW, DKW, Borgward Isabella, Tempo, Renault truck, Army truck (Manschaftwagen) and Karmann Ghia.
The third series consisted of only 8 models, but several of the second series were continued and sold in packets with the new versions. The colors were still varied, but the 4 common colours were now even more widespread, and the other colors much more rare. Among the eight models four from series 2 were continued but in new and easily distinguished different moldings. These four were Karmann Ghia, DKW (no barred back window), BMW (slightly bigger), VW (slightly bigger). The models were Citroen, Fiat 1200, Mercedes 220 and Opel Kapitän.
The last series (4th) is in fact the same as series 3, but the models differs in have a number molted under the roof. 1. Fiat, 2. Opel, 3. Karmann, 4. DKW, 5. Mercedes, 6. BMW, 7 VW and 8. Citroen. I believe this series was licensed to the company Biller Bahn and used there as cars for the car transport wagons.
Sometimes the models were used as commercial gifts for products like Ada-Ada and Koruna, and these names were either molted underneath or painted on the roof.
In some cases the cars were paired with red, black and silver giving the models are more "finished" and expensive appearance - but obviously these were very cheap toys.
