Well it says Achim Pex on the packaging and on the baseplate of this small scale diecast Mercedes-Benz Actros truck so that's how I will catalogue it. It is almost certain that they didn't actually produce it themselves as I believe they are a German marketing and promotions company and who will have sourced this from a Chinese factory. I recently obtained a sizeable job lot of similar sized promotional trucks and trying to identify them has been a nightmare. The exact same castings with different brandnames printed on the baseplates, some without any names, some which look the same but are copies etc...etc...
This is a licensed Mercedes product so having no manufacturers name to attribute it to is odd. Being licensed does of course mean a full array of intricate detailing and badging and a top quality casting. An all metal cab, fully furnished with features and even some seriously realistic wheels. I'm not entirely sure what product this truck is meant to be advertising but its artwork on both trailer and packaging is superb. Mint and boxed.
