Manufactured by Herpa (article number 529587), this miniature showcases the airline's eye-catching tribal pattern design that wraps around the fuselage in vibrant blue and burgundy tones. The model features authentic markings, finely detailed engines, and precise paint application that captures the unique character of this short-lived but memorable carrier.

Known for its distinctive T-tail configuration and rear-mounted engine arrangement, the 727-200 could accommodate up to 189 passengers and became one of the most successful jetliners of its era.

Notable for being founded and staffed largely by former Eastern Airlines employees, Kiwi featured a memorable livery with tribal-inspired artwork. Despite initial success, the airline ceased operations in 1999, making models in this livery particularly sought-after by collectors of 1990s aviation memorabilia.\n            ","brand":"aviation.brussels","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54076113617242,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/3015\/9446\/files\/P6071358.JPG?v=1778228607","url":"https:\/\/aviation.brussels\/products\/die-cast-model-kiwi-international-air-lines-boeing-727-200-herpa-1-500-with-original-box","provider":"aviation.brussels","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
