Dear Collectors!

I would like to thank you for visiting my site during this year! I hope you enjoyed getting fresh news and details concerning 1/500 and 1/1000 aircraft models!?

Looking forward to your feedback during the next year and to great Herpa news at the Nuremberg Toy Fair (1st to 6th February 2007)! Perhaps we can meet at Nuremberg or Dietenhofen during this time!

I wish joy and happiness not only at Christmas but every day of the New Year 2007 to all of you:-)

 

Happy collecting and best regards from Kirchhellen, Germany

 

Peter

Herpa - a long time ago:

 

 

 

Display with the very first 16 Collection models - 15 models in B01 box and the JAL 747-400 in the special white box. Therefore I guess the JAL 747-400 was never released in B01 box! But maybe I am wrong?
