Herpa TUIfly Boeing 737 Max 8 D-AMAH 1:500 Diecast Model

1:500 Diecast: TUIfly Boeing 737 MAX 8 D-AMAH "50 Years" "Fuerteventura" (Herpa HE538411)

D-AMAH, MSN 44629 (line number 8618), wears TUIfly's commemorative "50 Years" special livery marking the airline's 50th anniversary. The almost 40-meter fuselage functions as a timeline: TUI's current blue-yellow-white livery covers the forward section, the intermediate HLX color scheme fills the mid-fuselage, and the original Hapag-Lloyd Flug orange-and-blue livery wraps the rear. The aircraft carries the name "Fuerteventura," a nod to one of the carrier's most popular holiday destinations.

Livery & Visual Details

Three liveries run nose-to-tail in a single unbroken paint scheme. Forward: light blue nose transitioning into yellow mid-fuselage with the red TUI wordmark and characteristic sun-dot above the "i." A colorful dot band runs beneath the window line in blue, yellow, orange, and red. Mid-section: the intermediate TUI HLX era colors. Rear: the original Hapag-Lloyd Flug deep blue and orange, including the "flying K" logo on the orange upper vertical stabilizer. The registration D-AMAH and a small German flag appear on the white aft fuselage. Wingtips are sharklets with blue-tipped outer faces and a small orange-red accent at the cap. Engine nacelles are white with "TUI.COM" printed in white text on a dark panel. Visible on nacelle outboard faces.

Model Craftsmanship & Collectibility

Herpa Wings HE538411 is a diecast metal 1:500 release (News III, May/June 2025). The three-era livery transition makes this a reference model for TUIfly's corporate lineage—Hapag-Lloyd Flug (founded 1973) → HLX (2002) → TUIfly (2007). Herpa has modeled Hapag-Lloyd aircraft since 1993; this release closes a decades-long circle. Rolling gear, no stand. Wingspan 72 mm.
