The subject of our today's article seems to belong more to a Disney animated series than to a public road and having it reproduced in scale is a result of the great passion and originality that leads the DNA Collectibles team. Outside from its box, resized to better fits its minimal dimensions and from the removable foam walls that guarantee you'll receive your model in a single piece, the Fuldamobil S6 will put a smile on your face. Is a bubble car with a weird design, strange wheels position and a very cute face. It stays fixed on its transparent base trying to convince you that this is a serious job and it is the perfect replica of the real car back in 1956.
Comparing the model with some photos of the real car, I can easily see the precision of manufacturing and all the details from the real thing carefully brought in scale. Our model is made of resin, sealed and decorated with many individual pieces of high quality: exemplary made front lights and turn signals, door handles, front and rear bumpers or the rear reflective parts. |
How you can already see in the photos, the finishing and the paint are flawless and what you must know is the decorations along the both sides of the car and on the front bonnet are metallic photo etched pieces together with the factory logo of generous dimensions and very well detailed on our model. Is in fact the german Fulda's city emblem from where our model kept the name, too.

The windows are fully closed all around and are made blister style- you guys familiar with resin made models, know what I'm talking about- not my favorite just because from my personal experience, always will come out from their place. In fact, on my model on the rear side is slightly unglued, maybe because of the curved form and the big size. For the doors were replicated in two pieces and incorporate a metallic frame, that looks really good.
The four wheels, because yes, are four wheels there, keep the minimal design of the original counterparts and provide tires with specific profile for that period of time.
Even if the interior is very simple, the manufacturer kept its strategy in detailing it as best as possible. The steering wheel is precisely made and the only two indicators have chromed rings and legible details. |
I like the way they made the seats and the door's interior, leaving the same impression of simplicity, like on the real car, too.
The Fuldamobile replica, represents the proof that not only the big names in automotive history deserves a place on our shelves. Never reminded, unknown for many of us, the bubble cars represents a moment in automotive evolution and thanks to DNA Collectibles originality in choosing their future replicas, now a high quality and finished replica can be part of our collection.
