Shadow PRO 1:64 Mercedes-Benz Actros Gigaspace Lora Car Carrier Semi-Truck

The Shadow Pro Mercedes-Benz Actros Gigaspace (catalog number KS-069-617) is a 1:64 scale collector’s set consisting of a 4x2 tractor unit and a double-decker car transporter trailer. The product is intended for adult collectors aged 14+ and is aimed at truck enthusiasts and collectors looking to complement their passenger car collection with a transport vehicle; it is not a toy for young children, but a display model.

The set is finished in gray and features the "Black Bird Works Supply" livery. It is constructed from metal components complemented by plastic parts, with a total length of approximately 26–30 cm, making it one of the largest items to display alongside 1:64 scale models. It features a faithful reproduction of the GigaSpace cab—the tallest and most spacious version of the Actros, recognizable by its flat floor and high roof—complete with its characteristic front fascia, side skirts, and chassis details. The double-decker trailer replicates a typical car carrier, a vehicle used in Europe to transport passenger cars from factories to dealerships. It is worth noting that the KS-069-617 version is part of a wider series of Shadow Pro Actros trucks, in which different catalog numbers denote different liveries, such as Gulf or ADAC colors.

The original vehicle is the Mercedes-Benz Actros, the German brand's flagship family of long-haul trucks, on the market since 1996 and a multiple recipient of the Truck of the Year award. The GigaSpace cab is its top-of-the-line variant, featuring a completely flat floor, full standing height, and the largest interior volume in the range, designed for drivers on long international routes. Modern Actros trucks are powered by inline six-cylinder diesel engines and are equipped with features such as MirrorCam electronic mirrors and a predictive powertrain control system. Tractor-trailer car carrier sets are among the most recognizable vehicles on European highways.

For a collector, the KS-069-617 offers a completely different level of presence compared to a single die-cast car: at nearly thirty centimeters long, the set becomes a natural centerpiece for any display cabinet, allowing for the arrangement of scenes with other 1:64 models. Shadow Pro truck sets are released in limited runs and frequently sell out at distributors.
