Christmas 2021 Boeing 777-8 535540 & 4013150535540 WEIGHT: 175 g SCALE: 1: 500 This year's Christmas model not only comes up with a different ice art design on both sides of the fuselage, but the new shape of the Boeing 777-8 in 1: 500 is also being used for the first time. Due to the delays in the entire 777X program, this shorter version of the new 777 generation with its increased range of over 16,000 km is a long time coming.
1/500 scale collectable model airliners were the first size of truly detailed airliner models to hit the market. Herpa Models started producing 1:500 scale die cast airplane models in 1992 and over the years has refined and improved their tooling so that the accuracy of these models is truly amazing for their small size. Other brands such as Star Jets, InFlight 500, Blue Box, and JC Wings have produced models in 1/500 scale, but these are more rare and Herpa Model continues to be the most popular and long lasting manufacturer in this scale. Airliner models in 1:500 scale are general from 2 to 6" long depending on the aircraft being represented.
