Some input on the BUBY diecast in the Argentinean toy history, Buby made not only 1:43 but also 1:64 an 1:50 scale diecast toys...... -- Several model diecast manufacturers have existed in Argentina in the past, the best known of them is Buby. -- This company, run by Haroldo Buby Malher was a well known and loved product, he produced model cars from the late 1950s up to the end of the 1990s, first in 1/43rd scale, later also in 1/64th scale. He made scale models of both European and American cars, but often these original cars were specially prepared, re edited, for the South American market and were made only in Argentina. -- In the1960s Buby painted and assembled models supplied by the French manufacturer Solido. These Buby models differed from the French models only by a sticker on the box. -- Until 1992 Buby produced the "Collector's Classics" and "Buby's Classics" models, this was limited diecast models edition of American cars of the 1950s and 1960s in 1/43rd scale. His latest contribution were the Buby Bus Urbano of Buenos Aires in the scale of 1/50. These were built in the late 90's. -- The only book written in Argentina on Buby is a photo catalogue, Buby Photo catalogue of diecast cars made in Argentina, in Spanish its known as Buby "La historia en fotos" by Lucien C. Brousse. Its in Spanish, some 286 pages in photos in B & W, has fine information details on each model made, wheels and other car details. A must for any series collector.
