Default Herpa Premium Enquiry

Hi,

I am a newbie in 1:200 airplane collection. I have got a question regarding Herpa 1:200 Premium models, are they diecast or built by resin like the other herpa 1:200 models?

The Herpa Premiums are made of a resin like their other 1:200 models, but have much more detail. They have the best detail of all the 1:200 scale models. But are they worth the price? Only you can best judge that. Most believe Inflight200 (diecast) are a much better deal for the money.
