Welcome to the whimsical world of Anguplas! A delightful brand, Anguplas brought magic and miniaturization to life with its exceptional range of 1:87 scale model vehicles. Famed for their intricate details and charming designs, Anguplas toys allowed collectors to immerse themselves in a miniature utopia where every tiny car, truck, and bus seemed poised to sprint off the shelf and into adventure. Anguplas models are a bridge to the past, echoing the golden days of vintage transport with elegance and grace. Whether you're new to collecting or a seasoned enthusiast, Anguplas opens the door to a world where the tiniest things can spark the biggest joys.

Anguplas, a name that resonates with miniaturization magic, began its enchanting journey in Spain in 1958. It was the brainchild of talented Spanish entrepreneurs Ángel Bascaran and Francisco Quesada. This innovative company swiftly asserted itself in the realm of die-cast miniature vehicles, crafting tiny masterpieces that captivated the hearts of children and collectors alike.

The golden age of Anguplas saw it producing a vast array of mini vehicles, each more detailed and wonderful than the last, often under their famous Mini Cars series. Every model told a story, from bustling city streets to lazy country roads, captured in a scale so perfect that it felt like holding a piece of history in the palm of your hand.

An interesting fact: Anguplas was pioneering in its choice of the 1:87 scale, becoming a forerunner for what is popularly known as HO scale in model railroading. This decision underscored their commitment to realism and compatibility with model train enthusiasts.

While the original Anguplas brand ceased its regular production in 1964, its legacy lives on. These charming miniatures still find a proud place in the hearts and collections of vintage toy aficionados around the world, a testament to their timeless appeal.
