Are the Cobi 24600 bricks compatible with my existing building blocks?

Yes. The Cobi 24600 minibus uses bricks in the widely used standard format. You can therefore combine them directly with elements from the market leader and other manufacturers. For example, build a bus stop or a workshop with a car lift for the Barkas using your own bricks.

How long does it take to build the Cobi 24600?

The Cobi Barkas is quick to build and perfect for a short break. The 147 pieces are first used to build the chassis and axles, followed by the box-shaped body with windows. The mirrors, license plate, and headlights are attached at the end. The instructions remain clear throughout.

Is the Cobi 24600 suitable for children?

No. According to the manufacturer, the Cobi 24600 is intended for teenagers and adults. It is designed as a collector's model for fans of East German vehicles. Alongside the Trabant and Wartburg, Cobi's light blue Barkas complements a classic car collection on the shelf.
