The current Aktionshaus MZZ &.K is a German company based in Jever, Lower Saxony.
At the end of 2007, the Swiss company MZZ ceased its commercial activities due to the age of the owner and Helga Raab took over the warehouse (not the company) and sold the items as “Aktionshaus MZZ &.K” until mid-2015.
The company was then taken over by Holger Lübben, who continued production and sales under the well-known name.
MZZ has offered vehicles in various scales (H0, TT, N and Z) also with the contribution of other companies such as Leodegar Berger von Berger (pewter models) and WKF. The name “WKF” is composed of the initials of the surnames Winter, Küchler and Fischer. Fischer is an extraordinary manufacturer of molds and metal foundry that also produces ship models on a scale of 1:1250. In addition to the vehicles of MZZ, it currently also implements the models of Modellbau Bernhard Küchler.
This is what I was able to reconstruct from the official website www.aktionshaus_mzz.de (I specify that the original text is in German, interpreted with the help of the automatic translator). Coming to the details of the models, these include practically everything: cars, trucks, trailers, three-wheeled vehicles, scooters both civilian and military. As for our 500s, they are produced both in kits and assembled.
The scale code is N in 1/160.
Here is the list:
● No. F 40 FIAT 500 KIT
● No. F 140 FIAT mounted red
● No. F 40 for FIAT 500 open roof KIT
● No. F 140 a FIAT 500 open roof mounted green and other colors.
A Z scale (code 3202) is also currently available on the site.
I would like to applaud whoever attempted to assemble the kit, as it is a very small model: it measures only 19 mm in length!
