Herpa Toys
Toy planes for children
With the airplanes from the Herpa Toys line, children as young as three can playfully discover the fascinating world of aviation. The airplanes are sturdily built and have no sharp edges or points, ensuring safe play without any risk of injury.
Three product types for different kinds of play.
Herpa Toys is divided into three product lines, each designed for different play scenarios.
Single Planes – Toy aircraft made from metal and plastic
Under the name "Single Planes", we offer sturdy toy airplanes made of die-cast metal and plastic, measuring approximately 14 cm in length and 13 cm in wingspan. All logos and markings are true to the original and officially licensed by the airlines.
Pullbacks – with pull-back motor, jet sound and LED lights
Our "Pullbacks" are stylized plastic airplanes with a pull-back motor. They feature electronic jet sound and flashing LED lights, which can be activated by pressing a button on top of the fuselage. When pulled back, the airplane rolls forward into take-off position. Batteries are included with the model.
Airport Sets – toy planes plus airport accessories
With the "Airport Sets", children can playfully recreate the fascinating activity on an airport apron. Each set includes an airplane and various airport accessories with officially licensed decoration, such as ground vehicles, trucks, apron markings, and more. The components are made of metal and plastic.
