Ebbro 1/24 Citroen DS21 Kit E25009

Ebbro’s 1/24 scale Citroen DS21. When the DS19 was introduced in 1955, it was like nothing else in the world. Its complicated hydropneumatic system provided an incredible ride, a clutchless manual transmission, effortless braking and light power steering. Its styling, both inside and out, was radical. The DS was originally slated for an air-cooled flat-six engine, but development issues caused it to be produced with a development of the 4-cylinder unit in use by Citroen since the mid-30’s.

The DS 21 was introduced in the late 60’s, and introduced a sleek front end treatment with covered headlamps as well as more power and an updated interior. Ebbro’s kit represents (sort of) an early 70’s model. The DS was built until 1975.

Much like the 1:1 DS21, the Ebbro kit is an update of their DS19 kit with an updated engine, interior (sort of) and body. It’s a fairly intimidating kit when you open the box… parts are as scale-thin as possible, the front doors open and the chrome tree features nearly all of the chrome trim molded as thin separate parts. The remaining chrome trim, as well as the gold badges, are foil “wet transfers” that are applied like waterslide decals but feature a grippy adhesive that gives you seconds of working time before they become basically part of the model.
