Default The new Herpa announcement will be out soon...

... anyone in the know? Any more-than-rumours?

The announcements for the toy fair have always been a bit more interesting than the others so can we expect a new mould? A B747SP e.g. is long overdue. Maybe an LH B747-8 since the mould is already existing and Herpa is always fast with LH-models?

No, they are very consistent with their announcement. They are inconsistent with delivery in the last year!

I heard it was because of production problems at the factory.

I hope that herpa produce some different models this year like
1.LUFTHANSA A300
2.THY A320
3.ETHIOPIAN AIRLINES 737
4.AIR MAURITIUS A319
5.THAI AIRWAYS (nc) MD-11
6.DRUK AIR A319
7.GULF AIR (nc) 737
8. YEMENIA A330
9. AIR JAMAICA A321
10. AEROLINEAS ARGENTINAS A310
But I'am pretty sure that this year herpa will make models that have already been made, old and boring.

I think a decent 1:200 scale Boeing 747SP would be fantastic!

i actually think that they are very consistant, usually second week of the month.

what makes them inconsistent this time, my guess, is because of the toy fair. they usually hold out the releases until just before the toyfair or at it.
