Herpa Eurowings Airbus A320 "BVB Fanairbus" – D-AEWM 1/500 536981

Eurowings has been a partner of Borussia Dortmund since the 2016/17 soccer season. With the BVB Fanairbus, Eurowings is the fi rst airline in the world to dedicate its own aircraft to football fans: the Airbus A320 with the registration D-AEWM fl ies in a special black and yellow livery as an ambassador for fi rst-rate football and fan culture in the European route network of Eurowings – preferably from Dortmund, the home base of the BVB Fanairbus. BVB fans were actively involved in the design of the aircraft: they were able to help decide which favorite moments and stars of BVB history should be immortalized on the aircraft. After voting by over 10,000 Borussia fans, the winning motifs were chosen. The painting of the Airbus was a highly demanding challenge – the illustrations of the nine most legendary BVB moments had to be designed in such a way that football fans could immediately identify the players and heroic scenes. This was created and realized in the painting style of the football artists „Hands of God“.

In collaboration with the artists of "Hands of God", Eurowings and Borussia Dortmund, Herpa offers the "Fanairbus" in no less than five variants: as a die-cast metal model in the 1/500 (item no. 536981) and 1/400 scales (item no. 562829), as a highly-detailed and fully-assembled collectors’ model in 1/200 (item no. 572750), and as part of the popular Snap-Fit series in 1/200 as well (item no. 613927), but also in the 1/100 scale as the largest version of the five (item no. 613934).
