Playforever has unveiled its latest collectible, the UFO Colomba, a toy car that captures the bold and futuristic spirit of 1970s Italian concept cars — most notably those from Lamborghini. Inspired by the wedge-shaped designs that redefined automotive aesthetics, the UFO Colomba distills an era of radical change into a sleek, high-gloss model built for both play and display.

In the 1960s, supercars were known for their sculpted, organic shapes, but the following decade ushered in a dramatic shift. Italian designers began experimenting with aggressive angles and ultra-low rooflines, creating cars that seemed to belong in science fiction rather than on city streets.

Playforever’s UFO Colomba celebrates this groundbreaking design philosophy. The toy car mirrors the sharp, streamlined aesthetic of those legendary prototypes, with an elongated body, low-slung stance and an aerodynamic silhouette. Measuring 176mm in length, 92mm in width and 58mm in height, the model is crafted from high-quality ABS plastic, ensuring durability. Its soft-roll rubber wheels offer smooth motion, while a UV-proof high-gloss clear coat protects against scratches and fading.

Weighing 350 grams, the UFO Colomba is designed to be a lasting tribute to the golden age of automotive innovation and is available for purchase now via the brand’s official site for $55 USD.
