Collectible airliner that has been retired since the 1990's! Schabak 1:600 miniature airliners are highly-detailed, diecast replicas of commercial aircraft, painted for airlines around the world. The brilliant colors and tiny, yet legible, lettering make collecting these little gems fun and exciting. Discontinued Scahbak 1/600 Scale Diecast Models produced in Germany during the 70s, 80s & 90, before Schabak closed in the late 1990's. Schabak was a die-cast toy producer based in Nurnberg, Germany. The company was well known for its line of German cars and high-quality commercial airline models. Schabak was formed in 1966 by Max Haselmann, Gerhard Hertlein, Horst Widmann and Wolfgang Stolpe. The company began as a toy distributor, mainly for Schuco Modell toys - and not as a producer. When Shuco went out of business in the late 1970s, Schabak acquired most of Schuco's tooling (cars and airplanes) and made agreements with many airlines to continue producing model aircraft. The company reissued many of Schuco's own diecast airplanes before producing miniature cars. Schabak then carried on the Schuco tradition of model cars. In the early 1980s, Schabak largely replaced Schuco, but it should be remember that Gama Toys acquired dies from Schuco and reproduced many of Schuco's 1:43 scale line as well. Schabak, perhaps more than anything, is known for its diecast airplanes, mostly commercial airliner models in 1:600 scale.
