Rivarossi was very innovative and the Pocher brand (Luxury car kits at 1/8 scale) are also issued from the same Italian factory. They combine plastic and various metal parts and turn into gorgeous museum quality models, with a lot of care.

The Pocher factory was in Turino, Italy and the RivaRossi factory in Como, Italy. When RivaRossi took over Pocher the train manufacturing of Pocher went to Como but the 1/8 cars were still made in Turino; so these were never made in the RivaRossi factory. Now of course everything of Pocher and RivaRossi is made elsewhere and the brands are owned by British Hornby.
