New airport help....Airport Starter set

Lucas · 10-20-2005, 02:12 PM

hello, i just purchased the Herpa Starter set "Terminal" and was wondering if anyone out there has this set, and if they did, could you please enter the details that come in this set, including which airplanes you got and if it includes a ground foil.....
thanks a lot.

Rammstein · 10-20-2005, 02:22 PM

It does include a ground foil and also includes 8 models, but i can't remember them unfortunately!

If you are reffering to Starter Set 4, I have it. It comes with Accessories set 2, the foil for the terminal, the buildings for the terminal, and 8 aircraft (the one I got had a LOT 737-300, British Airways A319 and 732, Kitty Hawk 727-200F, China Airlines 737-800, MEA A321, Royal Aviation 757-200, and a Mexicana F-100.) It is a very good set if you want to start a airport, but not want to work all that hard on it.

EDIT: Oh yeah! I forgot, it also comes with 44 unmarked cars and a Control Tower!

Lucas · 10-21-2005, 02:13 PM

Regarding LOT 737-300's collection, i have been to his house and his collection is in fact 1:500.

Now, i get my models from, Aviation Centre Berlin (ACB), Big Bird Aviation Models (owned by Bigbird400), On Track Scart and a few others.

It is all 1:500. The starter set had a set of building that had a gangway. I get most of my models from www.airlinemuseum.com and some of them are from different hobby/collectables shop.

Lucas · 10-22-2005, 11:47 PM

oh, okay, thanks a lot guys..

lollomz · 11-04-2005, 06:01 AM

Hi Lucas,
just my two words for your new airport:
the Herpa complete set is a good start for an airport, but it's something very common that can be placed in as tandard configuration, seen 1000 times...
Now the point is that you could modify your herpa buildings to create "your" airport. For example you could paint them, place them with an original scheme, add some custom details and so on, in this way you'll obtain a new original airport and not just the standard Herpa terminal.
Try to be creative, fantasy has no limits: good luck!

A means that the model is sold out and discontinued. It remains on the internetsite for some time because it might be in stock with some retailers.
C means that the model is a regular catalogue release, meaning that even if it is sold out temporarely, it will be reproduced in the near future.
N means that the model was released this calenderyear.

that's it!

Lucas · 11-04-2005, 01:10 PM

Hey, Thanks a lot Lollo! I was planning on changing the config, maybe painting it and stuff.
THanks Sabena for the A,C and N means!
