Dear Herpa-Fan
In just a few days, the new releases brochure for November and December 2012 will be waiting for you at your local retailer – with a small anniversary: It was exactly ten years ago that Herpa premiered the first Herpa Wings Christmas model with the Airbus A300-600 „Beluga“. For the anniversary in 2012, a Tupolev TU-144 in Christmas livery is now released together with other Christmas models of Air Berlin and Ryanair.
This seasonal tradition is also continued in the field of Cars & Trucks – with the Scania Christmas 2012 semitrailer and the Herpa Advent Calendar containing 24 models. The new Mercedes-Benz Antos will premier at the IAA 2012 exhibition in Hanover, succeeding the Axor and the Actros short-distance traffic variants. Different versions of the Antos are already now announced in the new releases. Collectors of cars and classics will surely be happy to learn of the Fiat Panda in the colors of the Italian Carabinieri, new vehicles from the former Eastern Europe, as well as new types such as the Audi R8 Facelift and the four-door VW UP!.
Also included in this Collection: The first Boeing 747-8 Intercontinental, just recently delivered to Lufthansa, and the
BAC 1-11, shortly celebrating its 50th anniversary. Fitting the occasion, a high quality Series 400 model in the colors of American Airlines is released.
