Question Herpa A380???

did herpa ever release a A380-300?
my friend said he had one and he sure it is made by herpa cos the herpa logos are printed on the box and the belly.
but i doubt it is an C&C.

btw, does anyone know H-T??? this brand made a virgin atlantic a340 with herpa og mould and herpa belly logo.

No Idea Captain. But knowing Herpa unlikely as it does not experiment a bit, let alone to make a model of an un seen type Doubt it personally

It must be a another fake herpa. Herpa will not experiment molds on aircraft still being tested indoors.

And im waiting for the A340-600!

No no Herpa A380 has been made yet. The A345/A346 moulds are all ready and done but not the A380

I seriously doubt that Herpa has made an A380, it is probably a new C&C plane you're referring to. I think it was mentioned before that they don't produce/release planes that don't exist or aren't flying today.

From what I heard herpa wont make the A380 until it flys in real life.

Yes I do believe they are the A380-800s but could be wrong.

Don't e-mail and ask airbus. They were all rude to me and said they could not tell me anything when I asked them about A318 seating! geez

Yup, there was an H-T model of the Virgin A340. I have one! Although mine doesn't have a Herpa belly logo on it, I did hear way back when that some of them were distributed with the Herpa logo. It's pretty close to the OG Herpa mould as well, but I think the engines are different. Hope that helps!

thanx guys!
i don't think that printing a herpa's log on C&C are legal things!
ha~but who cares? C&C is doing their business against the law.
