This is the first opportunity I've had to review Schuco's diecast aircraft. And I must say that I am impressed. Like all of its other diecast vehicles, Schuco does not skimp on detail and craftsmanship. The aircraft are amazing aviation miniatures with full fuselage, propeller, jet, cockpit and landing craft details. case in point:
The Ju-Air Junkers JU 52/3m - Iwc vintage 1:250 scale aircraft is a real beauty with its textured surface sweptback wings, three props, clear cockpit, extended landing gear and amazing paint application that includes wings details, windows and cockpit trim. A rounded display base is also included.
The Boeing 747SP American Airlines 1:600 scale passenger jet is a silver with gray and white trim flying monstrosity that boasts four engines, four set of four wheel landing gear and some amazing window, body detail and cockpit decals. How Schuco was able to jam so much detail into such a small diecast astounds me.
From Schuco's Junior Line 1:43 Scale collection comes its VW T5 "Notarzt" 1:43 ambulance painted in white and orange. Details include rubber wheels, full interior details including multi-seat, tinted windows, VW grill accents, side-mirrors, roof lights and decal lettering. I almost expect to zoom off on an emergency call!
From Schuco's Edition 1:87 Scale series comes another rescue vehicle, its Scania "Feuerwehr", turntable ladder, fire engine. Details to look for are a working ladder, full cab and body details that include decals, accented compartments areas, interior cab details, red and white paint scheme and rubber tires mounted on silver and red wheels.
Also in red and white is Schuco's Mercedes-Benz L311 "Feuerwehr Frankfurt a. Main" flatbed truck with twin blue roof lights, oversize red wheels with rubber tires, roof numbers, grill logo, enclosed three window cab with twin rear cab windows and transmission and gas tank details under the vehicle.
The Porsche 356 A Coupé is a cream colored vision of speed with its low to the ground profile, slanted trunk, small tapered side windows and body hugging bumpers. Oversize chrome wheels make this car a real visual treat.
All of the Schuco vehicles have tight paint application with no slop over, crisp details and body sculpting and nice little extras like chrome accents, accurate decals, moving parts and sturdy packaging that securing holds each vehicle in place.
