{"product_id":"cobi-24347-1956-citroen-ds-19","title":"1956 CITROËN DS 19","description":"\u003ch2\u003eBuild the goddess of the road\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eBring one of the boldest automotive shapes of the 1950s to your building table. The Citroën DS 19 blended futuristic engineering with unmistakable French elegance, earning its celebrated nickname “La Déesse” — the goddess. COBI recreates the 1956 saloon as a large 1:12-scale model, capturing its flowing roof, distinctive nose and gently tapering rear. Its 2,230 pieces form a classic measuring around 40 cm long and evoke the optimism of post-war modernism. The restrained colour scheme keeps the focus firmly on the car’s extraordinary silhouette and carefully stepped surfaces. You are not simply building a vehicle, but a documented landmark of French design history.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe build starts with a rigid chassis before progressing through the complete cabin and the intricately shaped body sections. Angled assemblies, sloping surfaces and rounded elements translate the original car’s organic curves into a convincing brick-built form. Steerable front wheels and opening doors introduce satisfying mechanical movement. Swing the doors open to reveal sculpted seats, detailed door panels, the characteristic steering wheel and a carefully constructed dashboard. Logos, number plates and instruments are printed directly onto the relevant elements, making the graphics a permanent part of the finished model.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis DS is made for experienced builders, classic-car enthusiasts and collectors of exceptional industrial design. At roughly 40 cm long, the completed saloon commands attention through its unmistakable profile rather than flashy effects. No figures or animals are included, leaving the accessible interior and working features to take centre stage. A printed instruction manual guides confident younger builders through the demanding project, while the scale and depth of detail give it particularly strong adult display appeal.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"COBI","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58200881692936,"sku":"24347","price":68.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0938\/5849\/6776\/files\/1956-citroen-ds-19-1784042814347-1.webp?v=1784042817","url":"https:\/\/brickminded.com\/en-at\/products\/cobi-24347-1956-citroen-ds-19","provider":"Brickminded","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
